My dear brother, Toyin or as Osagyefo AB would refer to you ‘Sir Toyin,” I was wallowing in remanences last week about how long ago the USA/Africa Dialogue series was launched and recalling with a smile those who were present at its inauguration. I have watched it grow by leaps and bounds. Indeed, I have continued to marvel at how you could publish as much as you have, organize the yearly conference at UT (one of which I attended over a decade ago), travel around the world delivering stimulating lectures and sustain this vivacious dialogue. As an Africanist, you have done a yeoman’s job.  

            Please note that your substantial contributions to the motherland and organization of the USA/Africa Dialogue series are greatly appreciated and thanks a billion!

Indeed. Prof Falola has done so much and continue to do much more till this very moment. We appreciate his selfless service- a service that is anchored on consideration for humanity.

What mostly holds this forum together as a  productive outlet: Dr. Toyin as a courageous non-dogmatic moderator.
