Chilling with my hommies atop the ancient and historical Olumo Rock.

A true symbol of peace and war and of freedom. What better way to spend the day?

It's peculiar to your eroded red mud land.

Meanwhile it marks our ancient culture. Those houses you see are not that archaic.

Am wondering about the brown roofs at the background, is it that there is something cultural or social about having brown roofs, or those occupants havent seen money yet, someone educate me.

Interesting, I'd love to visit there soon.

The only way out of recession is to spend for growth. You can only spend for growth either from savings or from borrowing.
The question is: what are you borrowing for?
Are you borrowing for consumption or for production?
When you borrow for consumption, you are heading for disaster."

As for the comments on the topic these thread is really now a dumping ground for not very intelligent individuals that link everything to recession and how the govt has not made their lives better. Until you understand that there is more you need to do for yourself and stop depending on a govt that has never helped anyone.

Go out use your head think of how you can make money for yourself Bleep legal. Make money non violently. Better y'all start using your heads and stop blaming the govt

I'd rather visit the motherless babies home.

Those people chanting brown roof
That is to show you, the civilization process Egba nation has gone through while other regions are battling with illiteracy during the colonial era

Enjoy bro.

Brown roofs are evidence of a durable civilisation from centuries ago.
Many European cities make a lot of TOURISM money from that to also create EMPLOYMENT for their people.
Many short sighted people flee their own regions and countries to be perpetual hustlers and under-employed slaves in these countries that have worked hard to preserve their HISTORICAL legacies.
IF you are a wise person you would be envious, in a beneficial manner, of such irreplaceable HERITAGE worthy of conservation and CELEBRATION.
Question is- are you wise?

Una no see Babes to accompany una? Abi recession no reach that budget?

Go and change it na,

abeokuta is an ancient city . Civilization started in abeokuta. Those buildings were constructed way back pre independence era. Still those buildings are still standing.
Most of those ancient houses have artistic designs which people now call POP designs.
Besides brown roofs is not a yardstick for measuring development

I was here on the day of my POP some years back. A lovely sight.

Afonjas be like Chilling on top brown roof republic

B

Nice view!

Ama visit that city to see and touch the famous Olumo Rock...

Afonjas make me laugh, living in brown roof is now their culture . While other countries are building sky scrippers and mansions, they are happy to say rusted roofs is their culture .Na una fada innovate Cameroon zinc?



BTW, I'm shouting "brown roof" and laughing.
