Meanwhile, NAIJ.com reports that President
Muhammadu Buhari in a statement by his
Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr
Femi Adesina, joined the business world,
Dangote’s friends and family in congratulating
“the Forbes rated richest African and black
man for his patriotism and kind heartedness
in always making sacrifices to safeguard the
health of the nation, most remarkably the
polio and Ebola interventions.”
Adesina said the President believed that the
business mogul remained “a shining example
of the virtues of choosing entrepreneurship
from an early age, treading the path of
diligence, perseverance and continuous
learning to build some of the world’s largest
manufacturing and distribution companies,
with household names in Nigeria and beyond.”
Students registering for the 2017 Unified
Tertiary Matriculation Examination, have
found the process, full of too many hassles.
