  ODUN ORO ASEMON Beyond Festivity: A Journey into Its Timeless Heritage, Purpose, and Significance👌 The Oro Festival is a festival deeply rooted in culture and tradition. It is one of the ancient traditional festivals that our people have celebrated from time immemorial; not only in Isara, but also in many towns across Remo and Yorubaland.  For our forebears, the festival was an important occasion for the spiritual cleansing of the land and warding off evil that might befall the people and the community. Beyond the spiritual aspect, it also carried messages of love, unity, togetherness, and community development. In those days, people travelled back to Isara from their various villages and settlements to celebrate the festival with family, friends, and the entire community. THE RULES AND TRADITIONS Like many traditional festivals, Oro has its own standards, customs, and rules 🚷.

 OLU OF IMAGBON OBASHIP TUSSLE _A Patriotic Call for Peace, Unity and Oneness for the Growth and Development of Isara Remo and Imagbon_ *By:* *Saheed Lanre Fidelity* *2nd September, 2026.* A Call to the Elders, Stakeholders, Sons and Daughters of Isara Remo, and Most Especially the Erinsiba and Gugesade Families I write this intervention not as a politician, not as a lawyer, not as an historian seeking to rewrite the past, and certainly not as someone who wants to deepen the disagreement surrounding the Olu of Imagbon stool. I write simply as a bona fide and patriotic son of Isara Remo, whose parental roots are connected to Imagbon, and as someone who genuinely desires peace, unity, progress and development for our people. The events surrounding the installation and presentation of the staff of office to the Olu of Imagbon, Oba Ayoola Fadulu-Bada, by the Akarigbo of Remoland on 11 August 2026, have generated different opinions, reactions, accusations and counter-accusations among o...

  A Historic Day in Isara Remo : Installation of High Chief Tajudeen Babatunde Kolapo as the New Apena of Isara History was made today, Wednesday, August 19, 2026, in the ancient town of Isara Remo, as His Royal Highness, Oba Peter Oluwole Ogunbayo (Otete III), the Odemo of Isara Remo, officially installed Chief Kolapo Tajudeen Ajanlekoko as the new Apena of Isara Remo. This momentous event marks the continuation of a revered tradition rooted in equity, balance, and communal unity.  In Isara, the chieftaincy of the Apena is not hereditary, rather, it operates under a well-gazetted rotational system between two quarters:  Igbo-Abe  and  Ajina . Across generations, several distinguished individuals have occupied the office of Apena of Isara. Many Apena served long before systematic documentation was preserved. Like Apena Adeona during the reign of Odemo Mayungbe Ayoledoye, Apena Ogunfowora during the reign of Odemo Ogunmefun Ojokoboye and Odemo Poke Onabajo etc....
