EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in the history of West Africa. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, it showcases "The Royal Niger Company" during their expedition through the region. The image portrays a diverse group of individuals including the commandant, agent general, and other leading men of the company. The scene depicts a midday halt along the River Ogun, where troops disembark from canoes to rest on a sandbank. In this composition, one can observe various elements such as mission churches, places of worship, factories, and architectural structures that reflect both colonial influence and local traditions. Notable figures featured in this print include Major A. J. Arnold and Lieutenant J. A. Burdon among others who were recognized for their service with honors like Distinguished Service Order (DSO) or Order of St Michael. "The Royal Niger Company" played a crucial role in shaping Nigeria's history by establishing trade routes and asserting British control over vast territories including Borgu regions and Benue regions. This photograph offers us a glimpse into their journey as they navigate through challenging landscapes en route to Abeokuta. Preserved within private collections today, this historic image serves as an invaluable visual document shedding light on West African exploration during the late 19th century.
