Abstract
restoration of cultural heritage is a collective responsibility between constituted authority and the general public who are the custodians of their cultural heritage. It was further discovered that there is a complete negligence on the side of government in maintaining and preserving the relics in the city. This, coupled with the encroachment of citizens on the remaining structures of the relics, combined to aggregate the dilapidation and in some cases complete disappearance of the relics. It was therefore recommended that government and the citizens should put hands together to preserve and protect the relics and to utilize them to guide physical and economic growth and promote tourism.
