Abipa
Abipa was an Alaafin of Oyo who, around 1610, led the return of the Oyo court to its old capital Oyo-Ile after a long exile. The reoccupation of the capital marked the revival of Oyo power. His reign is treated as an important step in the foundation of the Oyo Empire as a major regional state.
