Thanx Ousman for the effort. Even though I think Samsudeen was trained on  
tribalism as opposed to benign fact-finding. To authenticate Suntou, you can  
call the Alumni Association at Rutgers. A friend of mine, Mathews, Physics  
Professor at Western Carolina, told me he knew of Momodou Manneh while he taught  
at Rutgers (Mathews).
 
I wouldn't honor Sam's idiotic query with any effort to prove him right or  
wrong. Sam is not worth that time and attention to me. I am glad however that  
Ousman and Suntou are doing some fact-finding so Sam can cease soiling the  
reputation of more honourable men and women than himself. He is doing all this  
in the hope of selling his rag of a book.
 
Haruna. Thanx again Ousman for sharing.

Suntou,

Here is an article posted on the Africana studies  department website of 
Rutgers University pertaining to Dr. Manneh. Money  quote:

"The next person hired was Momodou Manneh, a PhD candidate in  the Rutgers 
Political Science Department (the first Black to earn a PhD degree  in that 
Department). Manneh, Bethel , and Weaver organized the introductory  course to the 
Africana discipline (in 1971-72 the African and Afro-American  Program on the 
three campuses in New Brunswick became Africana Studies) and  team-taught. 
Manneh returned home to the Gambia , West Africa and became the  highest ranking 
member of the Gambian Parliament, second only to the president  of the 
country."

The last sentence is definitely an exaggregation, but  Dr. Manneh did pursue 
a PHD at Rutgers.
