History

The people of Ode Remo originated from Ile-Ife, the cradle of the Yorubas. Specifically, they came from Ilode and Iremo quarters of the ancient city of Ile-Ife. They migrated through thick forest, rivers and streams until they got to a point at the Ijebu Waterside where the people attempted to settle, that place is now known as “Ode Omi”.
