Basorun Oluyole: The Legend Behind Ibadan's Foundation

Yoruba books are a strong way to teach life lessons and protect the culture from being forgotten. Many Yoruba authors use stories to talk about family love, respect for elders, the power of truth, and the danger of greed. These books are not just for entertainment; they help people understand how to live better. At Yoruba Library, we keep a lot of unique and rare titles that you may not easily see anywhere else. Some of these books are old classics written many years ago, while others are modern stories that still teach Yoruba values clearly. Whether you love poems, drama, or prose, these books are full of wisdom that can help both young and old.
