A Journey Through Decades At Oodua Museum And Hall Of Fame by oyinremi(m): 10:41am On Feb 24, 2016
A step into the 24 floor of the popular Cocoa house the first ever sky scrapper building in Ibadan where Oodua Museum and Hall of Fame is located is a journey into another world , where past events and history speaks as if they existed ,

As the guard opened the door one , the search for where the band of of late chief Haruna Ishola and his team set their stage as the old Yoruba blues being played sounded as if it was a live play started, the setting of the music which welcomes and entertain people to the museum was wonderful

The mural painting of and paleothic work of art on the wall was very enticing while the replica of old lantern ( fitila) hanged of the wall takes one back to another world which many of the present generation may not have been privy of enjoy in real life.

Unlike in the present day building when POP and different modern day ceiling is in vogue, the roof top was covered with a traditional mat ( eni )and Bamboo to prevent heat and serve the purpose of taking people back to the ancient period .
