I am always interested in articles about West Africa. My Father in law worked with President Hinckley in the missionary department during the early beginning correspondence with individuals from Nigeria and Ghana. He was set apart by Pres. David O. McKay as the First Presiding Elder of Nigeria in the early 1960’s. He traveled back and forth to Nigeria for a few years but couldn’t stay because of visa problems. Later he and his wife served a mission to Nigeria and Ghana in the 80’s. His history is fascinating.
