Do you know of any old building in the Eastern Nigeria apart from the one okeyglm told me?

okeyglm:
.Google it.

You are right.
Below is what I found.

I don't know much about monuments in the East.

okeyglm:
Stop distorting history. The ist modern building is in Arochukwu. Okoroji house built in 17 centuries.

Which one are you talking about?

psucc:
You can add the "Almalgamtion House" in present Ikot Abasi Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State.

That was where Lord Lugard signed the Almalgation Treaty.

Picture? I don't have it presently.

Ikot abasi was a slave port in the 18th century, the battle ground for women rights in the 19th century and a seat of the British consulate in the 20th century.

It is also believed that the announcement of amalgamation also took place there.

It was built by Oba Ewedo (1255AD - 1280AD) as the symbol of the mighty Bini empire for 6 centuries.

8. Kajuru castle, kaduna

While the other buildings on this list are very old, Kajuru castle is not since it was built by German expatriate in 1978

1. Christ Church cathedral, Lagos

The cathedral church of Christ, Marina, Lagos State is an Anglican cathedral in Lagos island. The foundation stone for the first cathedral building was laid on 29 march 1867 and the cathedral was established in 1869.

The old buildings in Nigeria have both colonial and historical significance. Architectural designs are some of the attractions that draw tourists into a country and one peculiar thing about them is that they speak about the time they are built in.

Nigeria has a lots of historical buildings which can attract tourists to the country but unfortunately, the media has destroyed the international image of Nigeria.

Nigeria is seen with a negative light all round the world, thanks to our media. It's high time Nigeria media needs to wake up and do her real job. When you travel to several places, you will realise that the so called corruption in Nigeria is indeed child's play when compared to what happens in the west, but the west know how to put a positive spin on it. Croatia is a perfect example. I didn't know the country is full of corruption until I met my Croatian friend who told me EVERYTHING about the country.

Another example is if you bribe a senator or any other politician to get a favourable policy, in the west it is called LOBBY which is perfectly legal but if the same thing happens in Nigeria it is branded CORRUPTION. Let's try to adjust and show the positive side of Nigeria.

Below are some of the old buildings in Nigeria

Is ur mom or sister a single mother??

My mom is not a single mother. I just don't understand what you people gain from insulting them. Was it their fault to be a single mother? A decent lady swept off her feet by a sugar coated tongue. She has sex with her deceptive lover who absconds the moment he finds that she's pregnant. Is it their fault?

Stop the stigmatization against single mother. I understand the struggles they face every blessed day and the helplessness of them. You think it's easy.
May you should put yourself in their position, then you will understand better
situation.

ProfDview1:
This woman is a single mother
Yes only single mothers are frustrated like this. That is why I warned my guys to be careful when dating a single mother. They are always frustrated, bad tempered....


If a woman can be slapping a police man like this, only God knows where the husband is now.


But but but
But why slap the woman at first?

Never heard dt any US or UK police slap sumone just like that.. Even though our police are mad, that woman deserves 6 months in prison

The rate at which you people generalize is annoying TBH

Single mother is this, single mother is that
Your hatred for single mothers will soon consume you
