Oyo, Nigeria
Oyo is a city in Oyo State, Nigeria, founded as the capital of the Oyo Kingdom in the 1830s and known to its people as 'New Oyo' (Ọyọ Atiba) to distinguish it from the former capital to the north, 'Old Oyo' (Ọyọ-Ile)) which had been deserted as a result of rumors of war. Its inhabitants are mostly of the Yoruba people and its ceremonial ruler is the Alaafin of Oyo. The city is on the A1 highway, north of Ibadan.
