Chukzyfcb:

it sounds funny right, there's a hilly terrain in a local government at Enugu state. inside the village, there was a place we were told we can't used gadgets there to snap the water or the environment because our camera will go faulty. if this is true or false is what I don't know. but those indigenes believe in it strongly. maybe that's why your own pictures got spoilt when you got home hehe

you might be right chuckzyfcb

Bro, nice one. I have gone there once but didn't get to explore the Olumo rock itself, just got a view from outside....this time around, am going there for sure.

a view from outside isn't good enough holar2ge, try exploring from within.

Nice! Thanks for the history lesson. I've got Olumo and Idanre Hills on my checklist. With the height you gave; Erin Ijesha water fall is far higher than Olumo then. Well done.

thanks a lot pdizzle. please don't stop exploring.

I was there 3 years ago and the op did absolute justice to his narration. It was like I am there again. We didn't use elevator too.

I honestly see no reason why the elevator should be there...

What could be special about the sacred Bilikisu's grave mentioned? Hmmmmm.... Am curious!!!!

I feel like weeping cos few of the pictures from Olumo and all from bilikisu's grave got corrupt but i'd still share my experience and y I tagged it sacred.

You are welcome, bro.
May God bless you mightily also and add more grease to your elbow. Simply keep your focus on getting better and winning while ignoring the discouragement from haters.
Meanwhile, I would like to suggest that you don't put dates on your pictures as that does not make them look very professional. You can always see the date in the "properties" of the picture when you open it on a computer/laptop.
Cheers and please keep up your good work moving from one level to another to another etc. cheesy

wow,i love what I just read. You just made my day. I would love to visit Olumo someday.
Its a pity no Biafran has ever don this by showing us their historical sites.

the aim is to start from the closest state to my home, then go farther from there. the implication of this is that i'd soon get to the east if the encouragement is constant. trust me PierreDeFermat

@ OP,

Nice adventure and virtual historical excursion for those who cannot visit yet.
Please post your Centenary Hall story also and please mention me when you do.
I particularly like your picture by the grave, which should go in its own way to reduce our fear of the unknown and superstition that holds us down in Africa from exploring and questioning everything for rational answers.
Kudos bro!

i cant thank you enough for this great push you just gave me. God bless you

nice one, i visited in 2007 as well, your very last pic reminds me of the one i took at that same spot. so lovely. but why did you not take a pic at the very tip of the Oluma rock, abi you nor get liver ni?

thanks for the encouragement kaysalas. i kuku took. i even shot a video but majority of the pictures i took got bad few days after returning from ogun state. i still cant explain why. i'd try buying a better camera though.
