About Erinle

CHORUS:

E baje ka korapo, ka fimo sokan
Ka fimo sokan, ka fimon sokan ooo
E baje ka korapo, ka fimo sokan.
1.
ILOBU asake ilu ola, ILOBU asake ilu ogo,
Ogun o jaja ko kowa ri,
Bogun fee gbawaju, ogun ate
Bogun fee gbeyin wa ko rona lo
Sebi ibu ojutu lo nko won lo
2.
Ikan parapo won mole
Eera parapo won lana o
Alapandede njola okan
Ko sohun tole daraju, afi ka fimo sokan
3.
Oro oselu ko diwa lowo
Oro esin ko di owo awa
Itesiwaju ilu dowo wa
Ibikibi ti a wa, e je a fimo sokan.

The Olobu of Ilobu
Alhaji Assan Olasupo Arogundade is another illustrious son of Ilobu whose character is worthy of emulation. Born into the wealthy family of Arogundade, he did not need education to attain success in business. The art of making money runs in the family blood stream.

But, unlike most children of his childhood time, who felt comfortable and as well complacent with the expectation of wealthy inheritance from the family, young Hassan opted for education.
