Thanks for the Education Metaphysical.

One of the two houses built at the Bar Beach in those days belonged to Dr. Maja. The other one belonged to a familia family since we used to go for picnic there.

All the Brazilian houses at Gbamgbose and the Da Rocher Water House or others houses like that of S. B Bakare and Abiola are in bad shape.

Did you mention Government declaring them historical sites? The same people who scam their families to buy family properties at prices unheard of. Otherwise, send Government workers to mark them for demolition.

Well, I cannot blame you since we or most of us wish for the best. But reality?

Chief Salami Agbaje's House, Ibadan. Circa: 1930's

The beautiful masterpiece is still standing till today (Even though not properly maintained).

A wealthy man in the 1920's. Salami Agbaje was one of lbadan's indigenous entrepreneurs and textile dealer in the early 1920's. He was the first one to own a car in Ibadan.

His textile store in Gbaji area of lbadan was the Mecca for all sorts of people who come from the entire stretch of lbadan and Lagos to buy his wares.

However, the competition between the Lebanese and indigenous entrepreneurs increased the rate of insecurity for the latter, while the former continued to expand trading activities. For instance, Salami Agbaje reported had to quit textile trade because of them (Ojo, 1988, p. 30). Overall, the rivalry and competition did not favor Nigerian merchants.

Chief Salami Agbaje (Balogun of lbadan) died in 1953

Gossip House

This Yoruba people disgracing Nigerians before the entire world, imagine this one celebrating a standing building, while his mates are celebrating science and technology somewhere.

When you want to disgrace yourself, you bring tribal war to trivia matters, I am a Yoruba by tribe and I am very proud of it but let me tell you something am not base in that your shit hole country where you can use your gulter mouth insult anyone as a result of illiterate in which you be.
Since I know your tribe, the only thing you guys good at is to celebrate mediocre and insult anyone that is not your tribes man.
I am a technologies to the call and if you think building is not part of innovation we talk about in advance world, then you are still in the past era.
