Well! I visited this place in the company of another Local Guide. You take a lift from the Ground Floor. You alight at the 23rd floor and then go up a flight of wooden stairs to the 24th floor of the Cocoa House where the Museum and Hall of Fame is Located.
On one wing, you have the Hall of Fame that tells in details the Yoruba history from timely memorial and the important people of the Yoruba race, you also find copies of Newspaper from of old. Here, you also find the prototype of the Cocoa House Building.
Not 'unfortunately', photographs are not allowed in here.
On the other wing, the Gallery is located, you have artefacts of Yoruba origin here. The ones that interested me the most were; the various guns (🤦🙈 no, I don't like violence), the gun powder and the bullet protector.
