-2). Freedom Park, Lagos
Eyes of a Lagos Boy Photo of the Week series shows a rephotoghraph – almost 80 years apart – the Broad street wall section of the place now called Freedom Park, in the mid 1940s and in 2023.

The photographer of the 1940s picture above in the collage is unknown. The image shows that part of Broad Street to the left, a prison wall with Y shaped barbed wires on top and the General Hospital Marina on the right

The shot below is taken by Eyes of a Lagos boy, it shows the place as a green space with Western House, completed in 1958 and Independence Building 1960 in the background. This part of Broad Street itself now serves as a safe space that accommodates numerous internet content creators, musicians, street parties, dancing and skateboarding. The photograph offers interesting cues about the changing character of social life in Lagos.

Broad Street prison was the place late Awolowo was imprisoned by the British colonial masters for alleged treason. It is a natural sceneric place to chill out in Lagos.

Yes, Tinubu built Lagos, but when he remain to build Nigeria cement come finish

Falomo Underbridge was a very filthy place until the carers and managers of the car park underneath decided to give it a face-lift despite that it leads to highbrow areas of Lagos like Awolowo Road, Osborne Road, Victoria Island and Burdillion.

This is why I don't see Nigeria developing in the next 50 years

Only painting. No development. Fash and ambo developed Lagos. Tinubu built thugs.

The first image took the same

That's was before the arrival of the developers from the south east. They actually polute and desecrate our beautiful Lagos

So Tinubu built all these, but e reach to build Nigeria, Cement come finish.

More population.

No plans to improve or expand infrastructure.

The only thing that grew were the flowers in the second picture.

I unfortunately passed through Obalende underbridge when I was going to CMS, omoh, I nearly die, agberos don use shit scatter everywhere and people still dey sell food and wares around the place. Lagos nawa o. 💔💔💔
