Nigeria business magnet and the richest man in Africa Aliko Dangote has reaffirmed his decision to buy Arsenal Football club.

Dangote also revealed that the first thing he will do as the president of the Gunners is to show Arsene Wenger the exit door and give another manager the chance to coach the football club.

"The first thing I will change is the coach, he has done a great job but someone else should also try his luck. " he told Bloomburg.

American billionaire Kroenke and Russian billionaire Usmanov are the two shareholders of the club. Kroenke owns 67% while Usmanov have the remaining 33% share at Arsenal

The Nigerian billionaire, who is an Arsenal fan, said when he completes his £8.5m oil refinery in Lagos, he would consider paying off the two shareholders of the club.

"If they see the right offers, am sure they would walk away. Someone will give them the offer that would make them serious about walking away. "

"And when we finish the refinery, I think we will be in position to do that."
