RE: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Toyin Falola wins UT Research Award

Oga, Ekechi,

 

Ha ha haa! The Ghana must go bag is no longer in use! Oga Falola's awards are now in Nigerians-must-Go-To-Ghana bags! It is a designer bag manufactured in Abuja for all Nigeians!

 

Kwabena.

Back to Professor Falola's award:

Big congratulations, Prof. The award is richly deserved. No surprises. I've been asking myself -- and you -- for a long time how you do it, but there are no easy answers. The best answer I have isIt's just quite simply that you're a special talent. Thanks for the inspiration.

Ugo
