Nigerian Businessman Dr. Cosmos Maduka analyzes popular Billionaire, Aliko Dangote and describes him as the biggest debtor in Nigeria.
The businessman highlighted the fact that people who seem to have the most money are often the largest debtors.

“As you admire all of those things, it’s all credit. It’s all about credit. So you should leverage on loan, but you have to have a good structure that will support that loan.”
