Check Out This 1925 Old Colonial Building In Port Harcourt by 24hoursreporter(op):
Check out these amazing photos of the former administrative seat of government during the colonial time. The pictures were taken by the popular Photo Journalist, Enefa.

According to rumour, it is the first building built in the now State Secretariat complex of Rivers state, the structure is still standing strong and is in use till today.

Some parts of the building has offices that are still in Use but the structure is slowly crumbling.

How are tourists always able to enjoy destinations better than locals? I swear to God I live in Port Harcourt and have no idea where this is. It was the same when I lived in ABJ, I visited places people who stayed there for 12 and more years did not know.

That building shouldn't be destroyed. It should be converted to a Masonic lodge.

You talk sense. Assuming these cows are not mixed with us, it would have been good, many Yorubas also wont be muslims and those who like may go and meet their almajiri brothers in the north. I just wish south and north divide already.

His failure was in merging two distinct country into one. That was very shortsighted and foolish of him. Cooperation as two independent nations would have taken us farther than is the case today.


The man lacked foresight and deserves some beatings wherever he is now
