MXrep: I agree with u, but another option is to build a new house..... At least that's what my dad n his siblings did..... Thus abandoning their grandfather's house..... Yoruba towns urbanized very early n the development was right in the the town centre.... This explains the nucleated arrangement of ancient houses in Yorubaland..... New houses springing up are mainly in the outskirts, where land is cheap and purchase has less problems...... If ur notion is Yoruba people don't build modern houses, then u get it all wrong..... In Yoruba hinterland, people don't live in rented apartment for long duration..... U gather whatever money u have and build ur own house, whether u be upper class or working class..... Although,I'll admitt they mostly build bungalows..... Now coming to erecting mansions in places where u don't live....... Yoruba elites in the 80s n 90s did just that....... Building mansions in their home town n celebrating it with so much pomp n pageantry..... It was the rave then n wealthy men competed amongst each other..... Unfortunately, those houses are abandoned today........ People now make reference to those houses, not because of their elegance, but...... A reminder of how not to waste ur money in the time of plenty....... A perfect example is a place called shokaz estate in IJEBU Igbo..... I remember sunny ade calling it paradise on earth...... It doesn't look so anymore...... Now will u blame the younger generation if they choose to build in places where they live or has prime real estate value...... 1 Like |

MXrep: There are two factors you need to consider in your argument : 1. Igbos are known for living in dispersed settlements. So, as they urbanized, the empty Space are built up to have morden towns. However, in yoruba land, they live in nucleated settlements. So, modern development has to be in the outskirts. 2. The inheritance systems also have some roles to play. In Igbo land, the eldest son inherits the father's property, an so becomes the owner. He could do whatever he likes with such inherited building. However, in Yoruba land, all the deceased owner's children have right to the building. So it's always difficult to agree on joint effort at refurbishing the inherited building(especially in a polygamous family). Individuals will rather go and erect their personal buildings in the outskirts to avoid family problems. Dont you wonder why Ibadan has remained the largest city in Nigeria (and beyond) for almost a century? 3 Likes |

Yyeske: Not really trying to give any excuse but just trying to explain the "brown roofs ". They should not be seen as a sign of backwardness or stagnancy, rather as a phase in development. It appears most Igbo towns are now going nucleated, and Yoruba towns growing on the outskirts. Some people have chosen to ignore the development but rather overemphasized the brown roofs. 1 Like |
