When it operated as the capital of a region that had one of most civilized people in Sub Sahara Africa, when it functioned as the capital of a fully autonomous region without any outsiders to determine its development and economy, we witnessed many first things established and innovated in the city.

The first skyscraper in Sub Sahara Africa, the first radio station in Sub Sahara Africa, the first glass highrise in Sub Sahara Africa, the first T.V station in Sub Sahara Africa, the first modern stadium in Sub Sahara Africa etc were springing up left, right and center.

Oo! How I wish the first coup never happened. We would have witnessed the most civilized and developed Region in the world.

Then, Mombasa or Nairobi...

forgiveness:


The point is, those places in Ibadan are traditional houses. It offers no revenue unlike Lamu and Mombasa.

shervydman:

NairobiWalker:


You're very much welcome to Nairobi buddy. It's good to have a taste of this side. I would love to Visit Accra, Tema and Akosombo Dam in Ghana.

NairobiWalker:


.....define traditional houses? And how do residential homes in Mombasa and Lamu 'offer' revenue?

NairobiWalker:


See how NairobiWalker is a cool name? In Sheng we say iko chonjo.

NairobiWalker:


Don't be too sensitive. It's a friendly banter to cut short a recurring debate that's bearing no fruit.

TayserMahiri:



Of what use is it for Naijas to gain the world and lose their souls

Traditional houses here in some parts of Nigeria are hereditary, before the colonial masters came.

Some were built during the era of their own Kingdom.

Because those were built by colonial masters or there history is somehow connected to them, like my great grandfather's that serves as a museum in Lagos.

They are built on an Highland or beside beautiful beaches.

Lamu's houses were built long before colonialism. They are even more traditional than the Ibadan ones. Some are as old as the Swahili language.
