The imposing colonial structure stands tall against a backdrop of bustling streets and roads, showcasing a piece of history frozen in time. The architecture of the large Post Office building is a testament to the colonial influence that once dominated this region. Its intricate details and sturdy construction reflect an era when European powers vied for control over African territories.
