Charles,

My brother, it is sad you left us just when we would have had real quality time during your retirement.But it was never to be. You leave a big hole among African intellectuals of integrity, kindness, conscience and humanity.

Sadly covid ensured we did not meet in the last 24 months of your life. Lunch at the Senior Common, during my home visits, will not be the same without you.In you I have not only lost an elder brother but an advisor and mentor. You were only one of a kind.

RIP,

Your brother.
