my family house is located at ita-erunmu (totoro road) opposite the celestial church, in fact the family compound is called ‘agbole balogun’, though i have not been there for a while. i want to clarify, is there no ‘balogun’ that comes from that particular compound?, because family stories mention the kind of name like ‘balogun oyero’, balogun gbadamasi…………getting a response will go a long way in satisfying my curiosity,(benjibadmus@yahoo.com

Dear Asiwaju Apomu.
I am an Oke Ona Egba man who has always been interested in the history, traditions and culture of the Egba people of every extraction as a whole.
I have noticed from the list of past and present Balogun(s) of Owu that you ommited the name of the clan of the current Balogun of Ago Owu while other Balogun(s) from Ago Owu, Apomu and Erunmu were duly ascribed to thier Clans (Agbo-Ile).
Could this ommision have been delibrate or a typographical error given the fact that the current holder of the title is not only a prominent figure in Owu but also in Egbaland as a whole.
However I use this opportunity to thank and appreciate you for good work you are doing.
Odi gba, Ire O

Thanks for your observation, Mr Tunde Folarin. It will be unimaginable for me to ‘deliberately’ omit anything about the EBORA OWU, ANLUGBUA-2 himself in the incarnation of Chief (General) Olusegun Obasanjo, the Balogun Owu. The entire Universe could not forgive that! The list in question is however overdue for update and overhaul which I will do as soon as I get the inspiration. For the records, the Balogun of Owu is from Olusomi Compound in Owu Totoro.
