Happy birthday to the Son of a Tailor who have become an intellectual Iroko.Here and There you have made your mark.When two months ago I came across your Ph.D product at a conference in Ghana who was white and western but after "six years of tutelage"(as she said) was happy to refer to himself as half-Yoruba, I imagined the positive impact you would have made on her and of course to many others.
Eku see!
