About Igando
Igando was founded about 600 years ago, by the Bini people who migrated from Eru-Etan village. Oral tradition lists that the founder of Igando village were Ezeba-Onimaba, Oko-Osi and Eshidana. These three founders: Oko-Osi, Eshidana and Ezeba-Onimaba reached a point where there were three anthills, called ‘Igan-Odo” in Yoruba. The oracle, when consulted, told them to settle in the area.
