“Generosity is not giving me that which I need more than you do, but it is
giving me that which you need more than I do.” (Khalil Gibran)
I am an unrepentant believer in what Paul Valery said “The best way to make
your dreams come true is to wake up” I have woken up to various challenges in
the course of this programme and I thank God it has yielded results. Of course,
I need to bear in mind what Martins Luther also said some years back “All
progress is precarious, and solution to one problem brings us face to face with
another problem”. I therefore regard the completion of this programme as a
beginning of fresh challenges. Despite initial challenges experienced with my
health, the almighty God has been faithful all through. I am sincerely indebted
to my supervisory team: Ashok Patel and Dr. Kamil Omoteso who contributed
in no small measure to make the PhD programme a success. They have been
very generous indeed in sharing knowledge, thoughts and materials. To both of
you I say a big thank-you.
