Few people in Kenya will tell you that their salary is enough, very few actually one in a million. But are they really small or our lifestyles are just overboard?
The good answer is that we only live once. That is why most people tend to capitalize on the opportunity at hand to make their lives better despite the amount of salary they receive or the amount they get from the hustles.
With the current state of the economy you might think that everyone is a pauper. Cries everywhere. Everyone is always looking for a better hustle.
Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, has set his eyes on a Kenyan company to add to his already diversified portfolio.
He was speaking at an interview with an international media house where he revealed that his company was holding talks with a view of acquiring the firm.
An excerpt from Bloomberg stated that “Dangote Cement is in talks about a potential acquisition of a company with operations in Kenya and Tanzania.”
He, however, declined to disclose the name of the firm.
His entry into the Kenyan market was shelved after he complained of runaway corruption in the country.
“There are people in that place (Kenya) who put greed and personal interest ahead of national interest. I didn’t think Kenya would be more corrupt than Nigeria,” he commented.
He caused ripples in the industry in 2017 after reports emerged that Dangote Cement had registered two companies to start operations in the country.
One of the companies, Dangote Quarries Kenya Limited, was likely to be involved in limestone mining and the other, Dangote Cement Kenya Limited, was focus on cement production.
According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Dangote is worth over Ksh1 trillion.
He has invested billions in rice, sugar, dairy products and aims to buy oil and gas blocs in Nigeria’s Niger River delta.
WHICH COMPANY DO YOU THINK ALIKO DANGOTE WILL CHOOSE TO INVEST IN KENYA?
