Q. Who was the richest person who has ever lived?
(CLUE: He was African).
A. Mansa Musa, emperor of the West African Mali Empire.
Most of his wealth came from gold & salt.
Comparatively he was twice as wealthy as @JeffBezos. A new film tells his story.

Look at the escalation of killings in the 3 countries of W Sahel: no wonder hundreds flee their homes, sometimes their countries every day. Insecurity, terrorism, climate factors, poverty and the education gap are creating a huge humanitarian emergency. And it is getting worse!

She has the right to #education, as do all children.
Yet, the schools for 650,000 children have been closed due to violence in #BurkinaFaso, #Mali and #Niger.
