Ojude Oba Returns With Vibrant Colours, Glamour
The 2025 Ojude Oba festival has kicked off in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State, bringing together people from all walks of life.
This annual celebration, which dates back to the 19th century, is a revered tradition where the people of Ijebu pay homage to their monarch, the Awujale of Ijebuland.
The festival’s origins are rooted in the Muslim community’s gratitude to the Awujale for allowing them to practice their faith freely.
During the festival, various age groups, known as ‘regberegbe’, showcase vibrant displays of traditional attire, while horse-riding competitions and rich cultural performances add to the excitement.
The event showcases the community’s heritage and unity, highlighting the beauty of Yoruba culture through music, dance, and art.
