Igbajo

Igbajo is a town in Osun State in south-western Nigeria. Near it lay Kiriji, the fortified war camps where the armies of the Ekiti Parapo confederacy and of Ibadan faced each other for years during the Kiriji War, which began in 1877, until a British-brokered peace treaty of 1886 ended the main fighting.
