Who we are
More than Aso Ebi and Afrobeats.
Ijoko Omo Yoruba is a London-based diaspora community platform dedicated to educating, connecting and celebrating Yoruba culture. We started because we noticed a gap - a generation disconnected from their language, stories and traditions.

Yoruba Wisdom
"Ijoko" means gathering. "Omo Yoruba" means children of Yoruba. Together: a gathering of Yoruba people.

Knowledge lights the path.
