However, Hosea has presented also in places like Kuru, Mangu, Gindiri, and also Kanke and Shendam.

One of Hosea's passions is to encourage every College of Education to provide their students with literacy skills training in preparation for their teaching practice. He has designed a course titled "An Introduction to Literacy in the Early Grades". As a pilot project he is volunteering his time to provide this 1 hour per week program for four months, April to the end of August at a local college. | |
