Igboho
Igboho is a town in Oyo State, Nigeria, in the north of Yorubaland. In the sixteenth century, after the Nupe drove the Oyo dynasty from Oyo-Ile, it served for several decades as the seat of the exiled Alaafins, and four Alaafins are said to be buried there. The court returned to Oyo-Ile under Alaafin Abipa around 1610.
