7) Benin: Godfrey Nzamujo
Father Godfrey Nzamujo has set up the Songhaï Centre in Porto-Novo, the capital of Benin. The center plays several roles. It features a system of organic agriculture, it provides accommodation and houses a restaurant, and food production is carried out there, with a sales outlet.
