And this year(2018), we are going to Ilaje-Bariga community in Lagos💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃
The photos below were taken by our Program director Miracle Obiorah who recently visited the location.
"Located in Bariga Local Government Area, it is not only one of the worst settlements in the megacity; it is also one of the most crowded.
Conservatively, it is estimated that over 250,000 people live in Ilaje. But that’s not the real issue.
The real issue is no fewer than 10 people live in some of the one-room shanties erected on top of the lagoon." Says Yusuf a reporter at nextedition.com.ng

How we choose our outreach destinations aka OUR FAVOURITE PLACES
-----------------------------------
We love to go wherever there is a need for physical supplies and the love of Christ, particularly communities or nations with
•Poor living condition
• High mortality rate
•Poor access to Education
•Low believing/Christian population
•Unreached
Ilaje-Bariga community is clearly one of our favourite places.
