The state of the oldest story building built in 1855 in Ibadan has left many people asking questions of what went wrong.
The oldest storey-building in Ibadan, Oyo State
The first storey-building built in Ibadan by Reverend and Mrs Hinderer as the first Mission House is in a very bad state.
According to The Tribune, the building which its foundation was laid in 1844 and completed in 1855 has been left dilapidated and abandoned. It is in this house that the First Sacrament was administered to the first set of Christians in Ibadan is in a terrible shape as why it was abandoned is still a mystery.
It is said that the building was the first place the Baale of Ibadan and his chiefs first had contact with a mirror. In other clime, this house would have been preserved and maintained to be used for history lessons.
