Our Heritage

The Ijesa people have a rich history of enterprise and self-reliance. Over centuries, our traditional governance and communal values have been driven by collective aspirations and self-help initiatives. From early achievements like the establishment of Ilesa Grammar School in 1934 to modern-day projects, we have consistently prioritized the socio-economic advancement of our people. However, recent challenges demand a return to our time-tested strategies of communal development.
