legally  Yes and illegally No  !!!!!!!!!!!!.  When most Politicians in  Nigeria declare their Assets, Believe me Dangote won't see the 10th Position as the richest person in Nigeria.
WHAT IS LEGAL ABOUT HIS BUSINESS? FORMER MILITARY HEADS OF STATE SOLD NIGERIA TO DANGOTE, TELL ME WHAT IS LEGAL ABOUT?
