Great initiative professor. Hope you will also think about a book on him


The celebration of the knowledge rich life of the dearest brother Prof.
> Calestous Juma was held on July 5, 2018 at SPRU, University of Sussex where
> Calestous did his doctorate and completed his DPhil in 1986 when I also

> support I returned to Africa in 1997 taking a sabbatical from my English
> University to serve as a dean of scholars in ACTS, Nairobi. It is with his
> support I became a regular contributor in the Kenyan News paper, the
> Daily Nation. He used to tell me why Mammo you are always in the library
