West African Theological Seminary on En-Slave History Tour of Badagry

The West African Theological Seminary International students were on an en-slave history tour of  Badagry, Lagos, Nigeria, with the history curator and tour guide, Anago James Akeem Osho.  The theological University had been visiting Badagry for more than 10 years on an annual practical field trip with Anago.  On the tour, students usually asks questions, analyse their thoughts, collect surveys, and compare what they had learnt in the classroom with new studies on the field trip with Anago Osho. According to Pastor Promise, the student's cordinator, "it is compulsory for the students to have the priceless experience especially with Mr. Anago Osho as the curator and tour guide. Anago brings the past to the Present. And as preachers of the word, our students need the practical knowledge of the past to relate with events and be realistic in their judgements. It balances the physical and the spiritual".
