Ebrima Ceesay:

I never had the privilege of meeting Dr. Gomez even though I have been
greatly enriched by his work.  I have referenced his work and his
dissertation in particular, in my own.  In fact, I used a text for a
class a few years back in which he contributed a chapter on security. It
was required reading! He is a good and respected scholar, in addition to
being a well known diplomat.  He has made a mark and makes all of us
proud.  And as Mr. Sidi Sanneh rightly noted, he was a national football
jewel in the days he played the game.

Should you or anyone be interested in purchasing the book by Dr. Omar
Touray, here is the address.  Many have written asking for the address.
