The man described as Africa’s youngest billionaire announced on Saturday he is free more than a week after he was abducted from a luxury hotel in Tanzania. “I thank Allah that I have returned home safely,” said a statement released by Mohammed Dewji’s foundation. I thank the authorities of Tanzania, including the Police Force for working for my safe return,” the statement read. Dewji, 43, did not go into details about the Oct. 11 abduction or what led to his release. January Makamba, Tanzania’s environment minister and a close friend of Dewji, said he had spoken with the billionaire.
