Terrible news....

[The African Literature Association @AfricanLitAssoc]

The ALA is devastated to learn of the loss of Tejumola Olaniyan - treasured colleague, friend, & indefatigable editor of our journal, JALA.

His wisdom, wit, & warmth will be sorely missed by all who had the good luck to know him.

Our deepest sympathies to his wife & children.
