Professor Fallou Ngom led a successful decoloniality seminar at the University of Ibadan on June 30. I carried his bag along. Gratitude to the Dean of the Faculty of Arts, to the auditorium packed full on a Friday that almost cost our wonderful Muslim friends their Friday prayer.
Serious conversations emerged…with a follow-up responses organized days after by Dr. Afolayan for his class. Can we not do this once a month?
PS: I actually went with Fallou to the Friday mid-day prayer thereafter, and all sins were forgiven! Baraka to them, baraka for us.
