Prof Olikoye Ransome-Kuti
-------------------------

Thanks Ayodele for that profile!

For me it was such a great honour to have met Prof. Ransome-Kuti per-
sonally in Arusha, Tanzania, at the World Federation of Public Health
Associations Congress in October, 1997.

Despite his high world-level profile, he remained simple and mixed
well with all. He left an indelible mark on me as an exemplary propo-
nent and practitioner of primary health care. Our professors should
emulate such a great man.
