About Omu-Aran
Omu-Aran is a community that was founded due to the migration of people from Ile-Ife. According to folktales, there was said to be a drought in Ile-Ife, which necessitated some of the inhabitants to leave the town, as that was the recommended solution by the oracle consulted, claiming that the source of the problem was the overcrowded condition in the town. As a result, some princes were selected to migrate and establish in other places and were given the symbol of authority. One of the selected princes was Olomu-Aperan who was eventually the founder of Omu-Aran. Omu-Aran is made up of people from different backgrounds that migrated to the present site of the town. The people of Omu-Aran are predominately farmers, but they are also famous for hand crafts like basket weaving and blacksmith
