South African billionaire donates $1million to Guinea Ebola fund.


South Africa’s first black billionaire, Patrice Motsepe has donated $1 million to the Ebola Fund in the Republic of Guinea, to help fight the disease that has killed nearly 5000 people.

The donation is expected to assist Guinea with clinical management, social mobilisation, medical coordination and other key mechanisms of controlling the disease.

In 2012 Motsepe was listed by Forbes as the first ever black South African billionaire.

The billionaire businessman also urged African business to contribute to the fight against the epidemic, which has become a global issue.

Patrice Motsepe is worth $2.7 billion by Forbes’ estimates.
