We welcome Kingsley Shola Ayinde and his colleagues who have established their community– Akute, Ogun State, Nigeria — as an International City of Peace. Kingsley has a BSC in Theology at the West Africa Theological Seminary and a BSC Religion in view at University of Nigeria, Nnsukka, an affiliate of West Africa Theological Seminary. Though the community initiative is focused on a particular religious community, International Cities of Peace wishes to emphasize that all religions and spiritual paths have the Golden Rule as a tenet of their doctrine and ethics.
