<p>Asked if he was making efforts to have a son to sustain his legacy, Mr Dangote said, “That’s not really my priority. Let me say it blurntly. It is not really my priority. God controls everything. Sometimes you can pray to have a son but the son could be the one to drag the family name down.”</p>
