HistoryVille tells an abridged history of Abeokuta, the home of the Egba people which started with their liberation from the ruler-ship of the Alaafin of Oyo Empire around the year 1780, their sojourn to Abeokuta in 1830, the arrival of Christianity in 1843, the formation of the Egba United Government in 1893, their Kings (i.e the Alakes) and the prominent sons and daughters of the Egba Kingdom.

Did you know that the only Yoruba men to ever rule Nigeria as Heads-of-State are from Abeokuta?
