I want you to ponder on this: Aliko Dangote is worth about $19.2 billion. He is up by $1.44 billion since Jan 2021 in this year of the super-rich. Then the big one, according to Bloomberg: Dangote holds $3.48 billion in cash!
In the Igbo Nation, my best Igbo author, Tony Ubesie, in Isi Akwu Dara N’ala will call it the tree which produces money as the leaves. If you read that novel, he described Chike as the man who controlled industries. Yes, big trees which produced money as the leaves. Ada, his wife, had messed up in the heat of the Biafra War, but Chike was back.
(Ubesie was a great novelist but many would not know because he wrote in Igbo and died young at 44 with limited works. His Ukwa ruo oge ya o daa was quintessential. In Okike, which Chinua Achebe edited, Ubesie and FC Ogbalu, brought the significance of analogy in Igbo literature. Holding a piece of Okike while in FUTO as an undergraduate engineering student was like understanding Igbo literature before Pita Nwanna wrote Omenuko. The great ones have gone indeed!)

People, Dangote Cement is a tree which is producing money as the leaves. If not, how can a man have $3.48 billion in cash in Nigeria? This is a real financial anointing! You can get a part of it by reading my book on him. You need to plant a new type of tree and the leaves will produce cash.
