5:18 pm
southwest where there is a lot of experience, he has a good vice president coming in with him and i think that their team should be able to take on these issues. so i think nigerians have rose up in concern over this fuel crisis but it should put them in a good position. to say that enough is enough. >> thanks very much for younting some of the challenges in nigeria, richard joseph, professor of political science at northwestern university. now it's been one month since a 7.8 magnitude earthquake hit nepal. a minute of silence was held to remember those victims. nepal is one of the world's poorest nation and been crippled by the earthquake. it is estimated reconstruction could cost $7 billion. more than a million homes and
