Lord lugard (the great britian) first resident in nigeria

The lord lugard's resident was once a refuge for locals and settlers, Lord Lugard had the area cleared of such refugees and built his rest house for both recreational and observational purposes. The resident was built in the 20th century circa 1900, the rest house sits graciously on top of the mount (Mount Patti) overlooking Lokoja and its wonders.
From this mount you can have a view at the whole city (Lokoja)

As you can see above is the view of lokoja city from mount patti.
The rest house has been preserved both by nature and government intervention to look as it was during Lord Lugard's days. It was built from locally sourced stones although its roof has been repaired using modern materials. There are two statures by the side. That of the two occupants of the rest house, Lord Lugard and his wife. There are also flags of Great Britain and Nigeria by the statures. It is seen as a mini-museum of colonial history and if you are on a tour, the tour guide is sure to give a brief view of live during the Lugard period. It is nice to take a time off your hiking and view this historic site given its significance.

Here is a clear picture of the resident hope you find my story intresting as this place is a great historical place for tour and hiking thanks
