Ejigbo in the presentday Ọṣùn State, South West Nigeria is an important is a prominent town in Yorùbá Land and the headquarters of Ejigbo local government area of the state.
Various traditions of Ejigbo origin agree that the founder of present day Ejigbo was a prince of Ile-Ifẹ (son of Ogirinyan, one of the youngest grandsons of Oduduwa of Ife) whose name was Akinjole.
He left Ife at the time Oranmiyan returned from Benin to found Old Oyo Empire.
Akinjole followed the footsteps of his brother (from the same mother) Akinoruja, who founded the town Ikire-ile in Osun State.
After consultations with the Ifá oracle, he was directed to face the direction of the place where Ejigbo is today, and told that he should not stop until he reached the place where “Eye Agbigbo” (ostrich) were rampant. It also instructed him to go along with his father’s god, Orisa-Nla (which is known and called Orisa Ogiyan in Ejigbo) and be its custodian, because this god would guard, guide and protect him throughout his journey. Akinjole then prepared himself and left Ile-Ife to start his adventure in the thick forest where in which dwelled wild animals and evil spirits.
Tradition has it that Akinjole and Olusiji were living together and exchanging views. Then strangers, visitors, men and women started migrating into present day Ejigbo (due to one reason or the other) from their original homes. Some people came as hunters, farmers, black-smiths, goldsmiths, traders etc. These people were received by both Akinjole and Olusiji. They assimilated and accepted the same culture.
The traditional title of the paramount ruler is Ogiyan of Ejigbo and the current king is HRM Ọba Ọmọwọnúọ̀la Oyèyọde Oyèsọsin II
