Aliko Dangote, Africa's richest man, has in his interview with David Piling of Financial times; made the startling revelation that at 61, he is willing to take on a new wife. Twice divorced with three grown up daughters, the billionaire told Financial times that he is not getting any younger and is in the lookout for a new better-half.  "I am not getting younger and sixty years is no joke" he says, but it doesn't make sense to go out and get somebody if you don't have the time. Right now, things are very busy because we have refinery, petrochemicals, fertiliser and gas pipeline".

Okorogheye Orisheneye David who hails from Warri-North in delta state, has marked himself exceptional and outstanding with his rare academic achievements as he makes straight A's in the West African Examination Council (WAEC) and scores 332 in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). Scoring above 300 in UTME and making clear distinction in WAEC is not an easy feat especially for a 15-year old. But this 15-year old has proven himself highly intelligent and ingenious as he makes this implausible scores in his first sitting. He deserves some accolades.
