Dear
All, The Network of Benue Cross River
Historians (NBCRH) at its Maiden
International Conference of September 4th-  5th, 2013
on the theme
"Historicizing the Civil War Experience of Border
Communities in
Nigeria", conferred its prestigious Magaret Ekpo Award
on Prof Toyin Falola of the Department of History,
University of Texas  at Austin. 
Do join me in congratulating our indefatigable
Toyin Falola for his latest laurel,  the Distinguished
Magaret Ekpo  Award for Excellent Academic Mentorship,
Institution Building and Selfless  Service to
Humanity!
Justifying Professor Falola's nomination for
the Distinguished
Margaret
Ekpo Award, Professor Okpeh O. Okpeh, Jr. who read
Falola's citation at
the occasion declared, inter alia, that:
"Professor Toyin Falola has an outstanding and unbroken
track record of
teaching and research excellence spanning three decades. The
NBCRH is
indeed privileged to honor this great Nigerian Historian,
teacher of
teachers, mentor of mentors and Professor of Professors.
This is our
modest way of acknowledging and identifying with this
distinguished
scholar, a Pan Africanist per excellence and a worthy son of
Nigeria in
whom we are all truly pleased".

Professor Donald O. Omagu of the College of Staten Island,
CUNY Staten
Island,  New York received the award on behalf of
Professor Falola.
