The Ojude Oba festival, where people from Ijebu come together once every year to pay homage to their king, the Awujale of Ijebuland, after the Eid al-Kabir celebration, was held on Sunday, June 8, 2025. In the past few years, the event, once a local affair among the Ijebus, has taken root across the country to become a national fashion event.
This year the event saw rich aunties in matching aso-ebi shutting down Instagram streets. We were live at the Ojude Oba Arcade in Ijebu Ode, bearing witness as the Ijebus celebrate this year.
Here are all the must-see looks from the 2025 Ojude Oba festival.
