The Igbos referred to in the story have no relationship with IBO of the East. Igbo started using the term during the Civil war. Most words in Yoruba did not start with letter I but u e.g Ile was ule, Ife was ufe Igbo was ugbo ,Ilesha was Ulesha etc. So the Igbo in question is Ugbo. The name of the king is Olugbo. The Olugbo was the husband of Moremi. They are currently in Ondo state, Ilaje LGA, Igbokoda. Their biological father is Oramfe. They are related to Obatala. The Ilajes are descendants of Osangangan Obamakin, son of Oramfe while some are descendants of Obatala, Orunmila, Ompetu of Iddo ,Ile ife etc. The Ilaje speak the same language, they are the Aborigines of Ile Ife. Oduduwa met them in Ile Ife.. Having said this, when Ugbo emigrated Ile Ife, not all of them got to their present location of Ode Ugbo. Some moved to different directions and founded their kingdoms. It is possible the Olukunmi of Delta state is one of them. 2 Likes 1 Share |
