When the North met

LAST Monday, when the 19 governors of the northern states met with their traditional rulers in Kaduna, few observers needed to guess what the agenda would be. The Boko Haram menace may be receding in memory though its wounds are still fresh and in some isolated cases still festering, but in its place, the Southern Kaduna killings have begun to occupy prime media spaces everywhere. The northern elite, for that is what they really are, whether political or traditional, met amidst much flourish to begin the task of exploring hidden and open factors disposing their states to such unrestrained and unfathomable bloodletting. They appeared to recognise that such an exploration could not be done in a day or even

Bill Gates and Warren Buffett have had immeasurable impact on the world, but what would they do if they lost everything and had to start over?
