If the World Economic Forum meeting in Switzerland gave rise to the term “Davos Man”, one wonders what the World Economic Forum (WEF) Africa meeting gives birth to? A sort of borderless person criss-crossing airports between Kigali, Nairobi and Joburg, perhaps? Or maybe it’s someone who still actually has feet in different places, different anchors for their identities, with limbs in Joburg, London, New York and Lubumbashi. This is the kind of person who should be in Durban this week. But, inevitably, the pull of news gravity goes to our own issues, and our own commander-in-chief. Who not only spoke in public, but actually, gasp, answered questions. By STEPHEN GROOTES.
