Mungo Park House

Mungo Park House, the main Nigeria seat of energy, is wavering on the very edge of feebleness. Right now the building is getting lousy in frightful sights because of the Federal Government's tepid state of mind to convey it to life.Mungo Park House was raised by the Royal Niger Company RNC in 1886. It is situated in Asaba, now the capital of Delta State.

It was worked to keep alive the memory of Mungo Park, a Briton who 'found the wellspring of the River Niger'. In any case, unfortunately enough, he passed on in 1806 where his pontoon somersaulted someplace in New Bussa, Niger State.

And for this particular demonstration, the RNC individuals, generally made up of brokers that incorporated that Lander Brothers, raised the building and named it after Mungo Park, as a sign of respect, being the principal English traveler that endeavored to find the wellspring of the River Niger.

Accordingly, Asaba turned into the managerial base camp of the Southern Protectorate, while Lokoja filled in as the military central station.
