The American embassy is very popular in Nigeria, especially the consulate in Lagos. The name Walter Carington is synonymous to the American embassy. The bearer of the name has passionate love for Lagos and Nigeria. As an ambassador and even after retirement his name continued to be a household name and he never stopped coming back to Nigeria. Who is Walter Carrington? He was the United States Ambassador to Senegal from 1980 to 1981. In 1993, the U.S President, Bill Clinton appointed him as the U.S Ambassador to  Nigeria till 1997. His tenure as ambassador was graced by very cordial international relationship between Nigeria and the United States.  He has been visiting Nigeria (since the 1960s) before becoming an American Ambassador to any country in Africa. Some argued that he had done his DNA, and he is Yoruba.  The former American Ambassador to Nigeria and Senegal, Walter Carrington, his wife, Arese Carrington, and friends were on Anago James Akeem Osho Adventures's sla...

What is wrong with young peoples minds? Nothing is wrong but scale of preference and values, either tangible or non tangible. Physical or spiritual. When you go back to history and see where we are coming from. You may realize that Africans and youths of the world are daily polluting their minds with activities that are devoid of development. Yet, not all youths are engaged in such animosity. Some think they are better and know more than others because of their religious affiliation? It is glaring that the sacred books taughr us better than that. Do not follow men, follow the divine and use your mind creatively for the development of the earth. The hope of Africa for instance are its outstanding youths. In every land on the African continent that i have traveled to, the youths are not empowered and they just watch and try to survive by ''doing anything'', traveling abroad to make ends meet and care for their families and often time meet their water loo.  See...

Abile (Clara Turner) and her Husband Oluwale Kasola (Cudjo Lewis) in 1910 Is ‘’Home’’ where ever you find yourself (either willingly or not)? This is the question I raised in the case of Oluwale Kasola (Cudjoe Lewis) and his wife Abile ( they were the ones who began the founding of the Africa Town, Mobile Alabama in the United States known as Africa town today). The American state of Alabama is rich in history although some are not pleasant, yet the people can take advantage of the opportunities that seems not to be there. In reality, opportunities are not given it is created. The Clotilda was the name of the recorded last slave ship to the United States of America. ‘’Recorded last slave ship’’, because many came to the U.S.A illegally and were not documented. The Clotilda arrived in Alabama on the night of a Sunday, dated 8 th of July , 1860. Many among the slaves that were taken to the Americas through the slave port of Whydah (Ouidah), Benin republic were of Yoruba St...

HOW TO PRESERVE THE ITEMS IN YOUR MUSEUMS AND GALLERIES Hey! Do you seek how to preserve your antiques, either as iron, wood, paper, brass, etc.?   CONTACT:   Anago James Akeem Osho Adventures anago.tourism@gmail.com   +2348037043233    

A woman and about six children and a European male visited the museum. ‘’Hello madam’’, I greeted her and she responded by saying ‘’How are you Anago? Quite a while and how have you been?’’. Another smooth Jeep parked behind her car and she said, ‘’I brought my visitor to you. He wants to learn about the Tran Atlantic slave trade. I told him that you are a reincarnated slave and the right person for the topic”. ‘’Thank you madam for the compliment’’ I responded. About three more people joined the tour group. I noticed among the other group a man whom I later discovered to be an African American. He did his DNA and traced his root to Yoruba land, and Ibadan precisely. The people in this group were very knowledgeable. They came with a purpose and know a lot about African history. The African policy makers should make it compulsory that schools, especially both elementary and high school should learn their history. It seems people of African origin in Diaspora are mor...

''Tourism is the packaging of history, art, ideas, infrastructure, and the environment. The journey on the path of history is a conscious route to self-discovery. If this is true, the distortion of history by the mischievous minds should be gravely discouraged, just as plagiarism carries prison sentences.  History and Tourism are inseparable Siamese twins''. Anago James Akeem Osho (2017) Anago James Akeem Osho , is an Historian, Museum Curator, Tour Guide, Tourism operator, Author, Historic, Cultural and Heritage manager. He consult for DNA tested Africans.

mycookeryzone Welcome to MyCookery Zone Food Media|  Last episode of Bukas and Joints (Tour guide) Anago Osho made a shocking revelation during his visit to historical places in the city of Badagry. To be precise, at Badagry slave museum & port. (Anago disclosed that he was once a "slave" during the tour with Host Akah Nnani )  "I may have been taken as a slave through Badagry, Whydah or Lagos but came back as a reincarnation of my former slave self." Bukas and Joints (Tour guide) Anago Osho tells MCZ Food Media more, about his slavery's story. MCZ Food Media, asked him to clarify the statement here is all what he told MCZ Food Media. "That's my consciousness. I know I have been here before. I was taken as a slave to Cuba at the age of 15 in 1768. I was born originally in 1753 and became born again in this generation. Slave history is the tale of my past and I tell it. The returnees did not come back t...

Dear Asterixus, I am on a trip to Whydah, an historical place in West Africa. How are you and New York City today? I got the last message you sent to me. I did not shiver and maybe you do not know how graceful and important you are. Our planet is a wonderful place but the evil in the heart of humankind kept destroying this beautiful place. Maybe we don't know that this evil is also destroying us as a race of people.

Lekki is very important in the old and new Lagos. Lekki Peninsular is from around Mobil Lagos Victoria Island to the Niger Delta.    Lekki is an historical and ancient town. It is very close to Epe, Ikorodu, Victoria Island and Lagos Island.

Oba Akitoye was a king who believed in legitimate commerce and he desired a good relationship between his people and the British, but his nephew was a defiant slave trader who believed that Oba Akitoye usurped his position as a king.   Before Akitoye became king, Kosoko was in exile in Whydah (Ouidah) and Whydah was another important slave trading port that time.

The Slave trade is a universal phenomenon. It is not synonymous to a people but the Trans Atlantic Slave trade changed how slavery was viewed. It becomes based on skin color.   This was readily accepted because it already existed. The slavers of the Trans Saharan slave trade degraded African Slaves based on their skin color. This slave

In my research into both the history of Lekki, Epe, Lagos Island, Abeokuta, Apomu, Alaketu, El Mina/Cape Coast, Ouidah, Badagry and Seriki Faremi Williams Abass Compound, also known as the Brazilian Barracoon of 40 Slaves and the Seriki Faremi Williams Abass Slave Museum, I realized that the history of the trans-Atalantic Slave trade is still relevant.

This is the picture of  James Akeem Anago-Osho as he tour guide an International tourist at the  Lekki Conservation Centre, Lagos, Nigeria in 1998 and this picture exemplifies consistency as he still tour his clientelles across his areas of specialization. He still practices his tour guide trade and he seems to be ageless. According to him, the real tourism practitioners or tourist guides are characterized by patience and passion for work. It is important to remember how the journey began for Anago and appreciate the frusterations, dedication and passion for hard work.  To pursue a career in tourism management or become a professional tour guide requires patience and passion. To judge from the glossy front cover of tourism magazines or tourism documentaries, the profession looks interesting and fun, but do not get me wrong, the profession is fun but do not judge a book by it's cover. The financial ganin will come and accumulate only when the tourism enthusiasts is consi...
