Oranmiyan Omoluabi Odede, Great Prince of Ife, King of the Yoruba, also known as Ọranyan, was a Yoruba king from the kingdom of Ile-Ife.
Although he was the youngest, he became the prime heir of Oduduwa upon his return to claim his grandfather’s throne.
According to Yoruba history, he founded Oyo as its first Alaafin at around the year 1300 after he had left Benin where he had been crowned the first Oba of Benin.
Following the Oba Oranyan’s death, his family is fabled to have erected the commemorative stele known as the Staff of Oranmiyan – Opa Oranmiyan in the Yoruba language – at the place where their grandfather died.
This obelisk Is 5.5m tall and about 1.2m in circumference at its base.
During a storm in 1884 about 1.2m was broken off from its top and it has fallen down twice and been re-erected on each occasion.
