I had the pleasure to know him closely at the beginning of the eighties at the Department of Rural Economy, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Khartoum. At that time. he was a colonel at the Sudanese army when he came to teach a marketing course as a part-timer. At the academic professional level, Dr. Grang used to hold a PH.D in marketing from Iowa State University. He was an excellent academician in his rare field of specialization. He cooperated with us in teaching untill he moved to the south to start his mutiny against Numerie in 1982. I never saw him since until I heard about his tragic demise in July 2007. I was on my vacation in Canada at that summer when he was appointed as a deputy to Al Bashir. I had the intension to visit him congratulating when I go to Sudan. Unfortunately he passed away while I was still in Canada. It was shocking news to me and to my family. At the personal level, he was a very nice guy to know with a tendency towards appreciated humor. Quite frequently, his joyful spirit haunts my memories from time to time. I am sure if he were still around, Southern Sudan might had never been separated from the main land. He always dreamt of a united Sudan where all share equal opportunities and rights. He was a very simple man with a very focused ambition towards a just future for all Sudanese citizens. Thank you Mr. Salah to write about his leadership charisma and political capabilities.
