      Let’s use this thread to do a little bit of Yoruba history.

      Many students actually assume that the great Yoruba elder, Obafemi Awolowo is from Osun state because of the great University being named after him (Obafemi Awolowo University) formerly known as University of Ife.

      Obafemi Awolowo was born Jeremiah Obafemi Oyeniyi Awolowo on 6 March 1909 in the Remo town of Ikenne, in present-day Ogun State of Nigeria.

      Where is Obafemi Awolowo buried?
