There were meaty discussions about the future of the Community in Nigeria, and I was very happy to be allowed to listen to the discussion at hand. All of the participants shared keen insights, and it was easily one of my favourite Conferences. I only wish that some of our friends from the Middle East had attended; I was looking forward to meeting them in person.

Ibadan was close to Urbana-Champaign, though the former boasts a much larger population than the latter. Don't let safety stop you from visiting in future. If you need tips on how to get your Visa from the States, feel free to contact me off list.

I agree with all that Brooke said, safety concerns were massively
overstated for the area the conference was in.
