Bill Gates disclosed this in a note published on his blog dated June 23.
His words; “I’ve been lucky to call Aliko Dangote a friend for many years. We have a ton in common: Both of us started successful businesses, and then, for our second acts in life, we chose to start foundations aimed at improving health and education.”
