A Whole New Enugu, Nigeria

The Enugu Coal Camp was a place every one wanted to be. But Not anymore. It was a place where economic and social lives boomed in Enugu, the then capital of Eastern Nigeria . The coal camp was deliberately planned and built by the colonial masters to house coal miners. The camp had well trimmed flowers and beautiful lawns, it was the centre of attraction for most Igbo elites.
Everyone wanted to live there.. the extremely happy and peaceful life in the Enugu coal camp is even captured in Cyprian Ekwensi’s novel Coal Camp Boy..
It was through this writer, Ekwensi who is , Nigeria’s foremost urban novelist that most people had a peep into the beauty of the coal camp and how the boys who grew up there were feared and respected not only throughout Enugu, even the East and even Nigeria as a country..
In his words “People used to have fun to their fill”, because life started and ended at the coal camp where workers spent money as they liked.”

Well this was years ago. Things have since changed. as the years went by, the coal camp's fortunes began to decline especially as Nigeria government started to focus on other industries like the oil industry .. Join us today as we take you on a trip to coal camp and show you this Enugus neighborhood that will always remain an important part of the states history and identity.
