In 2012, he was the 76th richest man in the world. He moved from that to 43rd richest man in 2013 and now to 23rd in 2014 with his wealth jumping from $16.1billion to $25billion.
The next Nigerian on the list is Glo chief Mike Adenuga, who is 325th richest person with $4.6bn. Then Mrs Folorunsho Alakija in 687th position with a personal wealth of $2.5bn.
Former Microsoft chairman Bill Gates takes back the No.1 position as the richest man in the world with $76billion. Geez! If you lived ten life times, you probably won't be able to finish $76b.

Stale, read this on punch early this morning. Thanks anyway.
And the irony is he only wears a china white material and is place 6ft below the ground without coffin when he dies. Lets all pray we make heaven...aljanna.......congrats though in the earthly ranking,hope u make the list in the book of life.
Saw Aliko at a wedding on saturday and you won't know he sits on that calibre of immense wealth. But you know what I noticed about the really Wealthy ones they never pay about acquiring cars and rolex watches on Twitter and instagram. They talk about eradicating diseases and impacting the world positively. We should all aspire to do same. Someone told me that warren buffet drives the lowest grade volks wagon car in the line they supply it to him. I guess they have nothing to prove. Just saying
Meanwhile our $20b is still missing!
hmmm nna de money too much
Good for him.
Amazing!!! Bill seemed to have rubbed off fast on Dangote...
Madam y u dey hype d news...its world's 25th richest not 23rd....confirm well ma'am
Dangote has always and will always be an inspiration when it comes to investment. He makes informed decisions when it comes to investment. Small wonder he is rising so fast on Forbes list of most richest man.
I forsee him getting to top 10!
Richard was here
Congrats Dangote.I thought Madam Alakija was the richest black woman in the world.
Wow!!!!
Money speaking, this is the kind of news i want to hear, cos Im getting there.

Wanna start a profitable Clothing Business today? Visit www.caracata.com now to get started!
I am in my 30's , few yrs back I was wondering if I will ever be rich like dangote and co. Today I own about 30 houses in choice areas, I receive 10m per anum each in 9 of those houses and the least are 14 blocks of flat which I receive 3m per anum each. I own a production business which turns in about 5m per day and other side deals. Recently, I confirmed that If I spend 1m eachday without working, I can survice for 9 yrs. In 15yrs I will be 50. Linda I might make the list at age 50.mark this day. I am single and hope to settle down this yr.
Saw the list Walmart owners dominated the list.still don't know how retail biz payoff that much..kudos to them all.
If I have made it this far, you can as well. Don't give up and be positively motivated
Wow frm now till ten years time Dangote will top the list.... na wan ooo from 43 position to 23rd. How is he making his money? Linda pls answer me, am confused, I really want to make this money...
23rd richest man my foot! What has he contributed to Nigeria, people like Bill & Oprah are great philanthropist with diff scholarship schemes & less priveledge homes both for old & young all over d world, his own is only making money & piling it for himself in order to get into Forbes richest....mtchewwww! Being rich is about sharing, he does not have two heads neither is he God's favorite, God only bless us so we can bless others that is d biggest work of charity, I've got no respect for him.
Linda you berra post my comment or else I go witch hunt u! Lol
Must you make that prayer for him@Alloy? Pray for urslf. He doesn't need yours. No hating, Just an advice. We need outsmart their efforts. Linda Just watch this space.

Mrs Folorunsho Alakija is $2.5b net worth and not 1.2 and Abdulsamad rabiu is $1.2b. Linda confirm and correct it please
Libsyndrome@ u are coming from where?mumu u think say na mouth them dey use come? U dey lib from morning to night dey do amebo, na so alakija dey do when she dey ur mate? No go find job for chemist mtcheeew
Mrs folorunsho Alakija is $2.5b in position 687 and Abdulsamad rabiu worth $1.2b in position 1372. Alakija can't worth 1.2 and be in that position. Pls confirm miss linda
Dangote worth 25mil and he can't help eradicate extreme poverty from his state. Or subsidize these new expensive vaccines. If not for Bill, all these vaccines we give our kids won't even be affordable, tuk of being free. And d man is not even frm our continent. If Bill can can do it for Africa, Asia, U.S and co Dangote can do it for Nigeria. Its a shame dat a man dat wealthy is a Nigerian. And we av notin to sure for it.
Great men!
wowowowwwowwowo,,so proud of you sir
Do you mean Dangote or Bill. Cos I don't knw wot Dangote has done for his state or Nigeria. If not the employing of graduates to become drivers. Or d 50k he pays graduates..
Inspiration for d youths....Congrats Sir
Lmao....you are funny sha
Aba, NNPC! You wicked ooo. You comment made me laughed at work. Good one
Abi, NNPC, you wicked ooo. Your comment made me laughed at work
I want to make money! Poverty is not good.
He gets richer every year. He sure will keep climbing up the list. Kudos sir!!!
Bill Gates is my role model.. In terms of his gud heart. Because of him I know all child in Nigeria can have free Vaccines to at least 5 deadly child killer diseases.
E b like say Oprah don dey bankable pass alakija,abeg gist me,which of dem b d richest,and y Beyonce never still enter d list,after all d energy she puts into been sexy,footballers nko?abeg I need gist
Hard work pays!
Abegi! Mike adenuga is definitely worth more than that! He is obviosuly hiding his wealth from nigerian government!
Congratulations to him. He should come and adopt me oooooo!!! God, pls help me reach even quarter of his level because my descendants must not suffer in Jesus name. Amen.
Congrats dangote ooo ,its been a long time coming .his profile is even gonna rise the more now that hez going into oil .one of the pride of Nigeria
I just love this man,Dangote & I pray for more prosperity for him in Jesus Mighty Name. Meanwhile the majority of my compatriots are still walking around like zombies looking for jobs instead of starting their own firms,companies etc. For instance,take a look at Linda(Ikeji) she's her own boss probably working from her own bed. Unemployment rate is high in Nigeria cos every damn person wants to "work".
Dangote has every right to be successful, infact he would be classified an agbaya if he is not successful. How can Dangote not be successful? On this Forbes list of world richest, Dangote is the only one that the government of his country (Nigeria) shut down every other competitor; making him dictator of cement and sugar price! The No. 1 man Billy has got big competitors in the US and is buying up small businesses rather than running competitors down like our dearest Aliko (government pikin).
Linda for records, Alakija's personal wealth based on the Forbes list is $2.5B not $1.2B
All these Linda's LIB are so shallow and ill exposed. Bonario pls shut up! You obviously don't read the news.
What difference does it make anyways. People make money yl u disagree over 2 steps positional difference. Irrelevant.
#GospelTruth! They don't waste time trying to prove anything ! Wow
Congrats Dangote o ,its been a long time coming .his gonna move even higher now that hez about to go into oil. One of Nigeria's pride.
Hahaha. ..guy u cracked me up big time nd u even thanked dem
No be small sorry oo
Abeg make dem 4get d money eh nd give us fuel pls
So you all really belive that Mike Adenuga is worth only $4.6B, then I have a bridge that I want to sell you.
Mike Adenuga is worth at least $30Billion. He is Babangida's main front for businesses and you think that's all he has been entrusted with? Glo alone is worth about $2B and then he has 6 Oil blocs plus over a trillion cubic feet of Gas untapped.
Do the math, Alakija has one oil bloc and she is worth $2.5B and Mike has 6.
Yay! He's my bday mate. God am soo blessed!
Hahahahahohohi, I follow the beg too o
Hmmmm
That's quite a leap.
Thief come take am.
Wey innoson na
Fact.Rumour has it that he is a front for a lot of people that looted our treasury dry.(Not hating on Dangote though).
Nigerian money
Anon 12:17, stop the beef and take several seats. Aspire to acquire. And it's actually 23rd not 25th ITK.
Ok but he is still gay.
God is in-charge.
He has $20b and is 23rd richest man in d world, mean while $20b is missing in Nigeria. It actually jt made me realise how huge d moni our govt cant account for is. Hmmmmmmmmmm
#1372 Abdulsamad Rabiu $1.2 B 54 sugar, flour, cement Nigeria..................correct yourself young lady.
Wow! Dats br8... Wat a tremendous improvement. Dis man is realy hitin it big time
20bn$ is missing frm NNPC,Dangote the 23rd richest man in the world and Africa's richest man is worth 25bn$.JONA where is our Money? This is nt chicken change. @DAY_OLU
Good wise words coming from u, its not about being d worlds richest man but impacting lives positively while u exist.
Well, na our money dem they take doing one of the richest men in the world. Wake up Nigeria and stop. Elevating mediocre .this is our stolen money being invested to enslave us and we are there wishing we could be ""them". Hmmm. Until we clear this corrupt cabal in our country, mehhhh it will take the grace of God,they have eaten us up even up to the 20th generation.
I rest my case.
Looooollllll.....joker!!! its funny how people conveniently use heaven for the most outrageous stuff
So Omotola didn't make it. Ok o..... abi she no fit buy this one? lol
Come n marry me.
Anon 3:16 who is beefing? Its in d bloody newspaper..nd its 25th..if dem ask,u for exam hall now u go fail bcs of follow follow...na so u go follow follow enter canal...ode like u

They should recheck. My name was omitted. I should be in the first 10. I will challenge that in court. LARGE BOBO
well I not blame Dangote, he's doing what a smart business man would do! But we should ask ourselves some question
1. If there is regime change would he countinue to rise this fast?... Lets say a Buhari comes to power!
2. Would he still be the riches ''black man'' if he's not a ''king maker'' in Nigeria?
3. When did he start to make it big in Nigeria? I bet he started in early 2002 or so!
In Conclusion the ''Power's that be'' made him who he is today. From the Obansanjo Government to the Yaradua - Goodluck Government Dangote has really benefited from the ''System'' I bet ''he's wealth'' is not really he's but the of the ''Power's that be'' like someone pointed out earlier a ''Front Man''!
What really gets me upset is that when you sample opinions on Fb,Lib and other forums you will notice the bias and stupidity of people! pardon my french, we have all been divided along Religious,Tribal and even Zonal lines to our own detriment by this ''Power's that be''... Only GOD can Judge them now! ''Why will they allow Brothers and Sisters to be Fighting and Killing one another'' tuface said that.
If you take you time to read what I have just written without bias you all will know I have said noting but the truth! I just pray people will read this and know that the average Hausa,Igbo or Yoruba man is not our problem in Nigerian but the wicked and Godless Elites(power's that be) from the East-West and North-South who prey on us using the ''Divide and Rule'' tactics... Only GOD can Judge them now cause their own don 2much!I dey vex! God will give them enough personal problems to contend with! In short the Angels that Torment shall be released against them in Jesus name!

Hardwork indeed pays
Thanks for the info. Pls cross check the info on the blog site with that on d linda ikeji mobile app. Pls Folorunsho Alakija is worth $2.5B as at against $1.2 reported on d linda ikeji mobile app. Abdulsamab RAbiu of BUA group is worth $1.2B. Thank you.
Well, Our Jonathan and he's friends shared $20bn... If only our politicians could tell the world how much they're worth, that $25bn dangote has wouldnt reach top 50. Good 4 him. God bless Nigeria
Let the truth be said.. Dangote is one of those animals impoverishing our country.. wtf. Where is our subsidy removal money.. where is the $20 billion dollar.. who are those billionares he jumped over for christ sake he is the only billionaires doing business. What of those billionares he jumped over doing business in developed countries unlike a 3rd world country like Nigeria. .. this dude and our governments has enslaved us in this country.. dont be decived hes not jumping forbes because of his profits in businesses. . E easy
And Jonathan nd Diezani shared $20bn. I shall be a Politician
It is so unfortunate we all have one life time ;)
Am happy for him , I just wish he would genuinely want to help me rather than just collecting my proposal and scamming to sleep with moi
