...rolling 120 acres outside Buffalo last week, engineers started planning the construction of a $12.5 million apartment hotel and a cluster of small cottages, to be called Rockledge. It will have a pitch-and-putt golf course, lawn bowling, shuffleboard, roof garden, sun deck and an infirmary offering 24-hr, medical service.

Between them, the Yoruba West and bustling Ibo East dominate Nigeria's commerce and furnish most of the country's bureaucrats. But the real weight of the nation rests on the top of the Y. Here, in the Northern Region, live close to 20 million people, mostly Moslems, who still remember the jihad (holy war), in which, 156 years ago, the Fulani horsemen...
