Moemeka, Nwuneli, Akinfeleye, Quarmyne etc to Attend Alfred Opubor Conference

It is going to be a gathering of the giants in Ibadan from March 27 to 29 as the Big Names will gather to honour the late Professor Alfred Opubor. The list keeps on growing: Professor Andrew Moemeka (no introduction needed!); Professor Raph Akinfeleye; Professor O. Nwuneli; Professor Alex Quarmyne, and many others whose names you meet in literature everywhere you turn! It will be a long time before we can gather these titans again. That is why I am encouraging you to ensure you attend the conference.

The Keynote Address will be given by the eminent scholar, Professor Cecil Blake.

MOST IMPORTANTLY: On Day 2 of the Conference, there will be a fireside discussion by the Elders' Forum on the theme: "Communication Research in Africa: Where are We? Where Should we Be? How do We Get There?" Discussants will be the names mentioned above and more. Our own Papa--E. O. Soola, will likely chair the discussion.

I don't want to miss that! I don't want you to miss it either. You want to be a giant? Rub minds with one!
