Cocoa House, completed in 1965. It is 105 meters high and covers an area of 1.7 hectares. It was the first known skyscraper in West Africa and was once the tallest building in Nigeria, located in the heart of Ibadan, in Oyo State, Nigeria. It was built from agricultural products (e.g cocoa, rubber, wood) from the then western state of Nigeria at the time it was used to build this monumental building.
It is now a commercial center which consist of:
Heritage Mall
ShopRite
The building itself now houses offices for major firms and broadcasting outfits, while the last floor is reserved for the Odua museum and Hall of Fame.
Wow big build
