While many Nigerians would rather spend Independence day going on about how there is absolutely nothing to celebrate in Nigeria and yet many others choose festivities, some have found new ways to set the date apart. This thread by @kelechinaba shows 13 colonial structures around Lagos and Ibadan.
We are not sure whether this is celebratory or a put down considering the fact that the buildings predate our independence but it is certainly a very creative way to mark our Independence as a country.

Kelechi Anabaraonye is all for the preservation of colonial structures and this thread is not even the half of the wonders he has subjected to his lens over time.
