Seku Amadu appears to have disapproved of the existing mosque and allowed it to fall into disrepair.This would have been the building that Caillié saw. Seku Amadu had also closed all the small neighbourhood mosques.Between 1834 and 1836, Seku Amadu built a new mosque to the east of the existing mosque on the site of the former palace. The new mosque was a large, low building lacking any towers or ornamentation.
