Oluyole Local Government

Oluyole Local Government is a Local Government Area in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. Its headquarters is in a growing suburb called Idi-Ayunre. This Idi-Ayunre is a large expanse of land with an estimated population of 5,000 located en route Alomaja, Odo Ona Nla, Onipe, Onigambari (also known as Gambari, which hosts a forest reserve, very close to Olowa)[1] towards Ijebu-Ode. There is a popular location called Orita-Challenge in Ibadan. Navigating to Idi-Ayunre becomes quite easy from Orita-Challenge through the Ijebu-Ode route. The precise location of CRIN is known as Odo Ona Nla, which has a second sub-settlement known as Adebayo. The Junior Staff quarter of CRIN is located at Adebayo.
