Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, says allegation of bribery linked to him is “all falsehood”.
Mr. Dangote said a committee set up by the Kano State House of Assembly to probe the bribery allegation should not waste its time.
“It’s all falsehood,” Dangote Group spokesman, Tony Chiejina, said.
The allegation has no foundation whatsoever and is an “outright falsehood”, he said.
News reports have attributed how Mr. Dangote gave the former Kano Assembly Speaker, Kabiru Rurum, N100 million to end the probe of Emir Muhammadu Sanusi.
