The Badagry Slavery and Heritage museum and the Badagry Slave trade ports are located in the Badagry local Government area of Lagos State, Southwestern Nigeria. They are one of the last remaining testimonies to the brutality of Transatlantic Slavery on the West Coast of Africa. The Badagry slave ports are located in the Bight of Benin region in the West African Gulf of Guinea. It is estimated that about 2.6 Million slaves were deported from the Bight of Benin ports to the Americas (Other sources cite up to 3 Million). A lot of these slaves were Yoruba, who are estimated to have made between 900,000 and 1.7 Million of them. The Badagry port was one of the ports where they came from, alongside others in Whydah/Ouidah (The biggest), Epe, Popo, Lagos, Porto Novo and Jacquin/Jakin (Now Godomey). Today Yoruba culture thrives on in the Americas, and is a testament to the resilience of the slaves who have managed to preserve their cultural essence in foreign lands.

Make up wahala! I Just got a call from a friend who said his wife woke up this morning and started applying her makeup right on bed around 5:15am there on the bed without bathing...... Husband stared at her and asked - "Have you lost your mind ?" Why on earth are you making up this early She Replies "I need to unlock my phone, it's on face recognition and it doesn't recognise me. 30 Likes 1 Share |

For the religious lunatics,these are the same white people that brought Christianity to us and at the same time sold many Africans into slavery;imagine humans buying and selling other humans. 13 Likes 1 Share |
