Elmina Castle was erected by Portuguese in 1482 as São Jorge da Mina (St. George of the Mine ) Castle, also known simply as Mina or Feitoria da Mina ) in present-day Elmina ,
Ghana (formerly the Gold Coast ). It was the first trading post built on the Gulf of Guinea, so is the oldest European building in existence below the Sahara. First established as a trade settlement, the castle later became one of the most important stops on the route of the Atlantic slave trade . The Dutch seized the fort from the Portuguese in 1637, and took over all the Portuguese Gold Coast in 1642. The slave trade continued under the Dutch until 1814; in 1872 the
Dutch Gold Coast , including the fort, became a possession of the British Empire

No it doesn't... Just meant civilization took root there before Nigeria.

European building always look new and classic.

A round of applause for this bullshit.

So the Portuguese were this powerful...Now little or nothing left of them......

You people are mixing it up. The building in Badagry is not the oldest in Nigeria...its just the first storey building in Nigeria

We need to introduce history into our curriculum asap

does that building has The Other Room?

the most amazing part is: the building is still standing firm and stronger than those that are being built currently

That building is the only reason why i don't use the "N" word (Nigga)

Imagine what my ancestors went through

They were shackled with a heavy chain, dumped in an overcrowded ship, stayed for about 8 months at sea, without food and water, they shiit where they were sitting, they didn't bath, they didn't brush their teeth, some died on the voyage and they were taken to America to do a hard labour and at the end of the day, those evil white people will call them "Niggers"

And some Foolish kids who can't stay without their phones or Internet for 3 hours, kids who doesn't know how it feels like to sit on one spot shackled with chain for 9 months will have the effrontery to use that word

If i ever hear someone around me use that word, I'm done being your friend or talking to you
