Sports / Badagry Slave Route: Path To Unpleasant Memories by Ksahmmy(m): 12:03pm On Nov 10, 2013
dehumanising effects of servitude and its historical place in Africa    

Harsh weather characterised Badagry for hours. But like a popular spring in one of the South-West states which flows hot and cold water, the ambience gave way to a downpour which softened the harshness of the weather.

Thus, it was soothing for tourists visiting the Badagry slave route to relish every bit of the expedition. From the slave port, overlooking the Marina Waterfront, our correspondent could view the harbour which leads to the route.

Founded in 1425, Badagry town is located on the south by the Gulf of Guinea and encircled by creeks and islands including a lake. Its major inhabitants are Aworis and the Eguns.

The place, which was a port for slave trade in the 16th to 18th centuries, witnessed the movement of African slaves from West Africa to South America, Europe and the Caribbean.

The slave route, among other remarkable sites, monuments and relics of slavery, makes Badagry a tourist site of importance.

From the slave port, one can access the slave route via a boat fused with outboard engine at a fee. A group can charter a boat for N1,000 to the route and pay same amount to return to the port depending on its members’ bargaining power.

One of the boat operators who did not give his name said it would be fun to charter the boat so as to cruise on the water before heading for the harbour.

He said, ‘‘Sometimes, people going to the slave route can wait for hours because we will not move until the boat is filled with passengers. Each person pays N100 and we have about 10 people on board. There is no way we will be moving on the water to satisfy the desire of some of the passengers to explore some places. Other passengers will not allow such because they came to the slave route for a purpose. But if the boat is chartered, we will travel around on the water to interesting areas.’’

The slave route is a sandy place where slaves were led on a long path bordered by palm trees to a shore on the Atlantic for transportation to where they were sold.

There is a well along the route where the slaves drank from when they were tired and thirsty. It was learnt that the slaves  were usually tired along the route because of the distance they trekked on their way to the Atlantic shore known as ‘point of no return.’ It is so called because slaves that got to the point were sold abroad.

The journey from the route takes about 15 minutes with intense walking and one wonders how tough it was for the slaves who had their legs chained to prevent them from escaping.

A sign with a terse inscription, ‘‘This is the route of the journey to unknown destination’’, erected at strategic points on the route, serves as a reminder of the emotional torture slaves endured while treading therein.

A tour guide at the Brazilian Barracoon (cell) located opposite the slave port, Stephen Olaniyan, told our correspondent that the place was used to house slaves before the merchants took them away across the Atlantic.

He said, ‘‘During the slave trade, European products were used in exchange for slaves. The products were canon guns, umbrella, alcoholic drinks, brass dish, mirror, guns, kettle and beads.’’

According to him, there are 40 cells in the place and each of the cells accommodated 40 slaves consisting of men and women.

He added that the value of 40 slaves was one umbrella, small canon gun; 40 slaves, big canon gun; 100 slaves and a bottle of gin; 10 slaves.

‘‘Mirror and brass dish had no specific number of slaves because it depended on the haggling power of the merchants and slave owners. Beads are just to appreciate the owner of the slaves while children were given as extras to the merchants, ’’ he said.

There is a well in the compound which Olaniyan said was dug by the slaves in 1847. Those who now live in the place use water from it for their household chores. There is also a waiting room where Olaniyan said merchants examined the slaves to choose the ones they wanted.

One of the rooms contains relics of the chains used in ensuring that the slaves were held in custody. Olaniyan, who showed our correspondent the slave chains where they were kept, stated that there were various sizes designed to hold the necks, arms and feet of slaves.

Students of the Department of Leisure and Tourism, Yaba College of Technology, were among the tourists who visited the slave cell and slave route when our correspondent was there.

One of the lecturers in the department, Mrs. Olufemi Olubukola, said the students were in Badagry to feel real monuments and historical artifacts.

She added that a lot of historical sites exist in the town. Olubukola said, ‘‘Badagry contains more historical and tourist sites than anywhere in Lagos State. This is where to be if one truly wants to see what historical sites offer.’’

 For those who yearn for insights into the history of slave trade in Nigeria, the slave route offers a range of perspectives.

Sports / More Cash Rewards For Eaglets by Ksahmmy(m): 11:54am On Nov 10, 2013
| credits: AFP
After getting increased match bonuses for winning the 2013 U-17 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates, the Golden Eaglets will further receive cash rewards from President Goodluck Jonathan when he hosts them in Abuja on Sunday (today).

The Minister of Sports, Bolaji Abdullahi, and top officials of the Nigeria Football Federation are expected to lead the team to the Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa for the grand reception.

Jonathan, who received the news of the Eaglets’ victory while on a two-day trip to Guinea-Bissau and Gambia, will lead other members of the Federal Executive Council to receive the players.

Our correspondent learnt on Saturday that apart from the traditional presidential handshakes and photo session with the President, each player will likely go home with N1m, while the coach is expected to get N2m.

Each player in the team had received N500,000 for finishing second in the African U-17 football tournament in May, while the coach got N1m for his efforts.

The President had said, “In recognition of your performance, we are giving you a token cash appreciation. It is a token because you are young people and we don’t want to spoil you.

The players were paid an increased bonus of $7,000 each for emerging victorious in the final, adding to the $4,000 they received for defeating Sweden in the semi-final.

Each member of the team had received $500 for the three group games, while $1,000 was handed out for the second round victory over Iran.

The players had also received $2,000 instead of the pre-arranged sum of $1,000 for beating Uruguay in the quarter-final.

Entertainment / Five Year Jail Term For Exam Cheats by Ksahmmy(m): 7:53am On Nov 10, 2013
Nta
The Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission has faulted the five-year jail term proposed for examination fraudsters. It said the law was unfair to students, who were not provided with basic learning tools.

It blamed the spate of examination frauds in the country on infrastructural deficiency in the education sector.

The Chairman, ICPC, Ekpo Nta, in an interview with our correspondent, said more examination cheats were found in schools where there was  shortage of human and material resources.

He criticised proprietors of schools, both government and private, saying educational institutions should  meet standards or be shut down.

He said it was time stakeholders examined the structure, which had been promoting corruption. He added that once the system was corrected, the individuals would be corrected.

Nta said the last time students accused of exam malpractices were brought to the commission, he investigated their background and the schools they came from. He noted that record of exam malpractices was very low in ‘top’ schools, including public ones.

“It is very rare. Laboratories, libraries, computers, dormitories, dining halls and highly qualified teachers are in such schools. How will a child who has gone through such schools be involved in exam malpractices?

“By the time you begin to check those arrested for exam malpractices, they are from community schools, where there is a math teacher for the whole school; no science teacher. And then, you turn around to arrest a child who is a victim (of the inadequacies).

“If you prosecute such a child and jail them for five years, when you never gave them an opportunity, you will only make them toughened criminals when they are out. You didn’t give them a chance in the first instance, then, you jailed them in addition,” the ICPC boss observed.

President Goodluck Jonathan, through the immediate past Education Minister, Prof. Ruqquayat Rufa’i, had introduced a fine of N200, 000 or five-year jail term or both for examination cheats.

Rufa’i had tabled a memo before the Federal Executive Council, seeking approval for the enactment of an Act to amend the WAEC Act, CAP W4, Laws of 2004 to give effect to the revised convention of WAEC, 2003 in Nigeria.

The FEC had approved the amendment, with the office of the Attorney-General reportedly fine-tuning it, before it was taken to the National Assembly for passage.

Crime / What!! Thieves Steal And Gang R*pe Pet Dog Whose Owner Had Tied It Up Outside by Ksahmmy(m): 12:09am On Nov 10, 2013
A Berlin woman was reunited with her stolen dog on Sunday only to be told by vets that it had been gang raped.

Kessie, a three-year-old Bardino-Galgo mix, was stolen from outside an Edeka supermarket in the Neukölln area of Berlin while her owner was inside on Wednesday.

Vets believe that while missing, the pet was gang raped by the thieves, and received external and internal injuries.

Kessie’s owner, who is known as Lena H, 30, discovered that her dog was missing when she left the store, and put up missing dog signs with her flatmate.

On Thursday she was phoned by an animal shelter in nearby Lichtenberg, to say that the pet was with them.

But they told her that Kessie had received injuries to her abdomen which were likely caused by a sexual assault.

The BZ Newspaper reported that when vets examined the dog they found that the injuries could not have been caused by ‘herself or another dog’.

Vets also believe that more than one attacker may have been involved in the abduction and assault.

Lena has now reported the assault and theft to police.

She told the newspaper that Kessie is now in a better condition physically and is recovering well.

But she also said that the shock of the ordeal would take her and the pet a while to overcome
