Warren Buffett’s $143 Billion Fortune to Be Donated After His Death
Warren Buffett, the 6th richest person in the world, has chosen to donate his entire $143.1 billion fortune to charity after his death.
His three children, Howard, 69, Susie, 71, and Peter, 66, will be in charge of distributing the money to charities of their choice over the course of 10 years.
Howard, set to become Berkshire Hathaway’s nonexecutive chairman, acknowledged the challenge, stating, “It’s not so easy to give away money if you want to do it smart.”
Despite the difficulty, he expressed gratitude for the opportunity, noting that they would work together as a family to ensure the funds are used wisely.
Since 2006, the siblings have donated over $15 billion of their father’s money through their own foundations.
Howard also emphasized that he believes wealthy people should give away their fortunes during their lifetimes, rather than leaving it in perpetual foundations.
Nigerian news analyst, Mahmud Jega, has shared his opinion on the recent airstrike carried out by the United States in Nigeria, stating that Nigerians should not blame President Bola Tinubu for the incident.
Jega made this statement during a recent interview, where he said he does not believe many people will hold the Tinubu administration responsible, as Donald Trump had issued threats against Nigeria long before Tinubu’s administration.
“No, I don’t think many people will blame the Tinubu administration for what is happening now because President Donald Trump, when he first made the threats, it was clearly not in coordination with the Tinubu administration or the government of Nigeria,” Jega said.
It has been reported that the United States carried out an airstrike targeting ISIS in the northwest region of Nigeria. The order was reportedly given by former U.S. President Donald Trump.
“Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS terrorist elements in northwest Nigeria,” Trump said.
He added, “I have previously warned these terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was.”
The Federal Government of Nigeria has officially declared the holiday dates for the festive season.
Thursday, December 25 will be observed as Christmas Day, December 26 as Boxing Day, and Thursday, January 1 as New Year’s Day.
The declaration was made by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Interior, Dr. Magdalene Ajani. He also added that Nigerians should celebrate the holidays in faith and pray for the nation.
