AFRICAN ECOLOGICAL THEOLOGY: PEDAGOGICAL PATHWAYS TO ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
African theology recognizes the sacred quality of the ecological system because it serves as the dwelling place for divinities, deities, spirits as well as the medium through which the sovereign or Supreme Being can be reached. It has been discovered that the influence of modernism and secularism has created an irrevocable havoc and devastation to the ecological system and unspeakable catastrophe to African Theology. The objective of this paper is to examine the traditional African ecological theology as a practice and ideology of resolving the present world ecological problem. This article adopts phenomenological approach. The work recommends a couple of pedagogical measures to check the wanton destruction of the ecological system.
