The Brittish didn't "found" this city

It was already there. Can we change this? Western scholarship cities such as Dakar, Banjul (Bathhurst), Abidjan, Conakry and others were assumed to be creations of western colonizers. However, though they were transformed in both negative and positive ways by colonization, these cities predate colonization as did many of the economic and institutional patters found in Africa.

You haven't said what you think is wrong with the coordinates in the article, but I've made a few tweaks to avoid the presence of multiple {{coord}} templates. If you still think that there is an error, you'll need to provide a clear explanation of what it is. Deor (talk) 17:59, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
