Short History on Ira
The founder of Ira was Laage, who happened to be the first Onira. Laage was a hunter who came from Oyo to hunt in the surroundings of Fere. He and his people were at Fere for a long time. It was the need to move closer to Oya's grove that made them found the present site of Ira. It was never told that there was a settlement there before. After Laage Lariekan, Oluagbe, Olurogba, Dibuloye, Labimtan, Abioye, kolawolu, Erewole, Oyekanmi, Oyafioye, Oyesanya, Oyeniyi, Oyenike, Oyebanji, Oduoye, Oyesoji, Oyelola, Moronfoye and Oba AbdulWahab
Oyetoro{The present Onira of Ira}
Oyamakinde popular called "Oya", after the death of her husband Alafin Itiolu Atanda Opo popularly called Sango Olukoso had to come to Ira where she entered the ground at a place called Igbo-Oya which is existing up till today. Oya was defied by her people at Ira and Sango's friends and aids for her loyalty to Sango. A shrine was built for her at Igbo-Oya {Oya's grove} where people from far and near worshipped her every year. The advent of Christianity and Islam has led to the end of Oya worship at Ira. History told us that Laage also disappeared into the ground just like Oya. The site where he entered the ground is at a place in Obada's compound, Ira.
