Hero of Nigeria – Samuel Ajayi Crowther
Samuel Ajayi experienced many miracles in his life – first, his rescue from a slave ship. Then, he was taken to a Christian school, where he came to know Jesus. When he was 36 years old, he was finally reunited with his mother and sisters, after 24 years of being apart! His education and his gift for languages made it possible for him to translate the Bible into his own language for his own people.
