Businessman Aliko Dangote has disclosed allegations of massive foreign education expenses for the four children of Engr. Farouk Ahmed, claiming the costs ran into several million dollars
According to Dangote, the children reportedly attended secondary schools in Switzerland for approximately six years each. The institutions named include Montreux School, Aiglon College, Institut Le Rosey, and La Garenne International School.
He alleged that the total cost of secondary education for the four children—including tuition, upkeep, travel, and related expenses—exceeded $5 million. Dangote also claimed that an additional $2 million was spent on their university education over a four-year period.
Specific figures were cited for 2025, with Dangote alleging that around $210,000 was spent on one child’s Master of Business Administration programme at Harvard University. The breakdown reportedly included $150,000 for tuition and $60,000 for accommodation, travel, and other incidentals.
At the time of filing, these claims have not been independently verified, and Engr. Farouk Ahmed has not publicly responded to the allegations.
