The tallest of all the falling towers is the Leaning Tower of Azinelli (the one on the right). Next to it, the Garrison Tower is falling.
Both were built in the XII century in Bologna, Italy.

Scientists Spotlight: Genesis Science Initiative Thursday
Professor Francis Kofi Ampenyin Allotey
The late Professor Francis Kofi Ampenyin Allotey, often referred to by many as a man with many βfirstsβ was a Professor of Mathematics and Nuclear Physics.
He is arguably the greatest scientist Ghana has had so far. Prof. Allotey is known globally for postulating the βAlloteyβs Formalismβ from his work on soft x-ray spectroscopy, which is the technique used to determine matter moves in outer space.
With this, he honoured and positioned Ghana on the global stage in the scientific space. Apart from decades of public service and contributions to many sectors of Ghanaβs development and the world as a whole. Among many positions, he was also a founder and the first president of the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) Ghana.

Early childhood and education
β’ Prof. Francis Kofi Ampenyin Allotey was born on the 9th of August 1932 in Saltpond to Joseph Kofi Allotey a store keeper and a royal of Sempe, near James Town (a trader and a general merchant who sold books, musical instruments and fishing gear for a living) and Alice Esi Nyena Allotey a dressmaker from the Royal Dehyena family of Enyan Owomase and Ekumfi Edumafa all of blessed memory.
He was raised as a Catholic and started primary education at St. John the Baptist Catholic Boys school in Saltpond at the age of 9. At 16, Francis persisted and enrolled as the only form-1 student at the Ghana National College founded by Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah in July 1948 for students from Addisadel and St. Augustineβs Colleges in Cape Coast who demonstrated for the release of the Big Six who supported his Positive Action Movement.

Part 3: Professor Francis Kofi Ampenyin Allotey
When he was 19 years in order to satisfy his desires to travel abroad, he travelled alone to Liberia and obtained a British Passport to study in the UK where he attended the London Borough Polytechnic and the Imperial College for his Bachelorβs degree. He did not complete his BSc. because he found the curriculum too elementary for him and opted to do a straight masterβs degree at Imperial College. He continued to Princeton University, USA and graduated with a PhD in Mathematics in 1966 when the Famous Einstein was in residence.
Key people who greatly influenced his life are: The Physics Nobel laureate Prof. Abdul Salaam during his undergraduate studies at Imperial College. At Princeton, he was mentored by many physicists such as Robert Dicke, Val Fitch, Robert Oppenheimer, Paul A.M. Dirac and C.N. Yang.
Career and achievements.
He was known for the βAllotey Formalismβ which arose from his work on soft X-ray spectroscopy which is a technique used to determine how matter works in outer space in 1966, winning him the Prestigious UK Prince Philip Golden Award in 1973. Applications of his findings are in fibre optics and laser technology. He was a founding fellow of the African Academy of Sciences in 1974. He was the first in many of the things he did.
He became the first Ghanaian Full Professor of Mathematics and Head of the Department of Mathematics and later Dean of the Faculty of Science at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST).
He introduced Computer Science education in Ghana was the founding director of the KNUST Computer Centre before he assumed his position as the Pro-Vice-Chancellor of the University. Among Alloteyβs colleagues on the mathematics Faculty at KNUST was Dr. Atu Mensa Taylor (died in 1977), the third Ghanaian to obtain a doctorate in mathematics. Taylor had received his Doctor of Philosophy (1967) from Oxford under the Welsh mathematical physicist, John Trevor Lewis. This friend passed away just 10 years after his PhD and Prof. Allotey deemed his long life as a gift from God.
This is what his students in mathematics had to say about him, βWe found him to be a good lecturer who demonstrated a good mastery of his subject and gave him a nickname; Ghanaβs Einstein.
