Episode description

Isabel Dos Santos is the eldest daughter Jose Eduardo Dos Santos, the former president of Angola and she was once described as one of the richest women in Africa- with an estimated fortune of $2 billion.

But over the last four years her life has changed dramatically. She’s faced lawsuits, her assets have been frozen in several countries and in 2022 global police agency Interpol issued a red notice calling for her to be arrested. Her critics say she’s used her position and influence to enrich herself.

She says all accusations against her are politically motivated by the government that followed her father. In today’s Africa Daily, Alan Kasujja talks to Isabel Dos Santos about the allegations against her and how she became so wealthy.
