HISTORY OF BASORUN OGUNMOLA, IBADAN,NIGERIA
described as conspiracy. His bed was laced with measles (Igbona). Due to his braveness, when perpetrators of the evil act were identified and people wanted to appeal to them for the cure, Ogunmola rejected the offer and died afterwards.
It has been established that Ogunmola’s remains and that of his children (Oshun, Omosa and Ilori) all of whom were also warriors, were buried right in the premises near his shrine, where the family’s masquerades and other historical artefacts are kept.
