Need more clarification because I have always known the house Samuel Ajayi Crowder used in translating the English Bible into Yoruba @ Badagry Lagos as the first story building in Nigeria. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Racoon: I have always question the veracity of Badagry building being first story building in Nigeria. What about the rampart built around some ancient empires of precolonial Nigeria that has place of abode for keeping sentry by warriors against invading empires. The truth about our history is that we are too lazy to make inquest into our beautiful past. 5 Likes 1 Share |

The idea that white foreigners built the ''first storey building in Nigeria'' is so REPULSIVE, WRONG, AND EVIL that it requires little further comment. Suffice it to add that 14th century European visitors to the city of Benin attested to the GLORIOUS nature of that city, with its NUMEROUS multi-storey private and public buildings and edifices, in a city that was described as one of the most beautiful on the face of the earth. . .

golddust6000: The so-called first storey in Nigeria was built by a European on African soil. Is that something to celebrate? The same lies we've been fed since school. The so-called "first well in Nigeria" built in the 1800s in Badagry was another lie as if our forefathers didn't know how to tap water from the ground till the white man showed up. We celebrate this as if it's an achievement, but it's mediocrity and makes us look like laughing stock of the world. Pay in mind that the Goborau minaret in Katsina was built in the late 1300s by Africans and it's three stories high. 4 Likes |

Moblux: Well said. Is it that we are lazy, or our energies and time are directed to other things that don’t prioritise continuous inquiries about our past? The past that is made up of the good, the bad and the ugly, such as the slave trade part of this story of the house built by the Portuguese. What is the point in chest beating over something that was built by another race? |
| Re: The First Story Building In Nigeria by seguno2: 4:45am On Apr 21, 2021 |
Omoslim26: Was it built by Igbos, or you ignored where the OP said that it was built by the Portuguese  |

okeyglm: How many such places do you visit for weekends and holidays Moreover, are you saying that everyone in Nsukka, Enugu is not sane? Is Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the novelist not from around there? Are you saying that she is not sane? Or she has not done enough work to make everyone as sane as she is? And Chinua Achebe |

Jdaughter: Based on the date, it may well be the first storey building in our country, even though not built by Nigerians. I am not sure if minarets, which are part of mosques qualify as storey buildings |

Typical ipob facebook propaganda rubbish. Some joker wrote 1758 on some house and all of a sudden, it's the first story building in Nigeria when history says it's not. This is not even part of Nigerian history or any historical records. If you like, take paint write 1758 all over the house, it's still not the first story building in Nigeria. I just don't know why you people like to deceive yourselves with lies, deception and fraud. Sad.. |

9jakool: Honestly bro, our people are just LOST. Knowledge of their own history: 0 Even government officials, dumb and ignorant to the hilt. You will see them in Badagry, grinning like stupid goats, telling foreign tourists ''This was the first storey building in Nigeria, built by the colonial 'masters' in 1897!'' The colonialists really dealt with us, with their education system that demonized and downplayed our pre-colonial past. We need to wake up. It is a real tragedy. ...........  |

seguno2: This one don get mad and upset because we are not falling for ipob propaganda. So, this house is in SE Nigeria for centuries and we are just finding out about this house from a biafran blogsite and distributed via Facebook, Twitter and NL, but it doesn't exist anywhere apart from ipob propaganda social media propaganda outlets.. No official government or historical record, no location, no address not reference anywhere in the world apart from ipob propaganda pages. You people really think the rest of the world na mumu because you are.. |
