The Ọwọrọ ethnic nationality represents a group of people around the Niger-Benue confluence speaking a Yoruba dialect called Oworo. They are generally classified as part of Northeast Yoruba (NEY) of the Yoruba people.

Oworo people speak a dialect of Yoruba, linguistically similar to other Okun dialects. Virtually all Oworos can fluently communicate in Yoruba. They can as well converse to a great extent with speakers of other Okun dialects since the languages are mutually intelligible.
In addition to speaking Oworo, those in the eastern axis can also speak Igbira Igu (Egbura)

UNTOLD STORY OF AYINLA OMOWURA'S DEATH - The mysterious murder of a maverick musician

Thread! Retweet

Wizkid Tiwa Sportybet Mr Bayo Arise TV world laycon day ImageImageImage
It was from Anti Wura, Buroda Alani’s third wife, that I first heard how Ayinla Omowura died. Buroda Alani was our extended family uncle. And he had a television set. He was one of the three people privileged to own television set in the whole of Itakogun, Ile-Ife in the
late 70s/early 80s. Baba Deyeba – father of Chief Alex Duduyemi, the famous Aro of Ife; and Baba Lawal – father of my aburo, now a brilliant lawyer, Ibrahim Lawal, were the other two.
Buroda Alani’s house was thus a sort of mecca for all the neighbourhood children.

The Liberation took place between 1775 and 1780, under the leadership of Lisabi
, a resident of Igbehin who was born in Itoku. He organized an insurgent movement disguised under the name of Egbe Aaro Tradition Mutual Aid Society.

Lisabi later used the society to free the Egba by organizing the simultaneous killing of the Ajeles or Ilaris in all Egba

Under King Ghezo, the Dahomey Empire grew strong and ruthless from their manner of slave raiding and attacking under neighbouring states. Abeokuta was a constant victim of this harassment; four times they invaded Abeokuta but only the last two Invasions were
deadly and were recorded in history.

The Invasion of Abeokuta in 1851 (the same year Lagos was bombarded by the British Naval forces) brought to light the secret weapon of the Dahomey Nation. It’s deadly and ruthless Amazons!

The first Invasion took place on

True life story

Basorun Ogunmola, the Warrior of Warriors

Sack Dino London NOUN Sowere Ronaldo ImageImage
The history of Basorun Ogunmola is quite a fascinating one as his life and time was riddled with lots of interesting stories ranging from being an oracle diviner at age 10 and later to a warlord. He was one of the foremost warriors, the Yoruba race ever produced. Despite his
smallish stature, he was a terror to many kingdoms during his lifetime. He did not only fight and win several wars, but also went ahead to become a ruler in Ibadan.
Ogunmola was a fearful, fearless, hardworking, daring, dedicated, resourceful, creative, crafty and a just leader
