IFELEKE: Well, I'll lay the blame on colonial administrators and our subsequent governments who modified/adjusted state boundaries without recourse to people's wishes/views and socio-political/cultural affliations/similarities. Examples abound of this errorneous demarcations: Owena town was divided into two with each part going to Ondo and Osun state. Presently, we have a town slashed into two by a bridge,implication: you can stay in the ondo state part of the bridge and converse with another person staying on the osun part. tubabie: E mi o ki n se Ekiti kete sugbon mo rope awon Yoruba to wa ni Kogi state, ara Ekiti lo ye ki won je tori ede won jor gan an ni  iyen nipe awon people yen ko npin wa bo se wu won ni  |

An important feature of the state is the large number of hills it possesses, which are often the site of towns in which much of the population resides. In fact, the word 'Ekiti' was derived from the local term for hill.
The Ekiti is a sub-group of the Yoruba , and indeed their ancestors migrated from Ile-Ife, the spiritual home of all Yoruba . The local dialect is spoken with slight variations in the different communities, but this does not prevent Ekiti indigenes from understanding each other. Christianity, Islam and traditional religions are all practiced. |
