Photowalk in Badagry: Badagry Heritage Museum and 1st Story Building


On the 21st of May, I joined a group of photographers on a photo walk to Badagry in March.
It was a wonderful experience hanging out professional photographers and hobbyist like myself.

Our first stop was the Badagry Heritage museum which was the first administrative office in Nigeria constructed in 1863 was used as the office of the District Officer from 1865.

 

Next stop was the first story building in Nigeria.


 
 

The best part of the trip was the down to earth atmosphere. Every one was so cool and the professionals were eager to share tips with us hobbyist.

Visiting a slave museum always fuel anger in me, especially when you hear about how our forefathers sold their brother and sisters into slavery. The worst is listening to the value of human lives back then. 

It was an interesting photowalk and worth the value, N7500.

Part 2 coming up shortly.
