Government House, Port Harcourt

The Rivers State Government House, also known as The Brick House, is the official residence and workplace of the Governor of Rivers State in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. Established in 1928, it originally served British colonial administrators before becoming the governor's office after the creation of Rivers State in 1967. The complex features a newly constructed Government House inaugurated in 2005, alongside the historic Brick House, which has been renovated to include beautiful gardens and fountains. The site hosts important government functions, including high-level conferences and the swearing-in of cabinet members, making it a significant landmark for both tourists and researchers interested in Nigeria's political history.
