In 1457, the king of Nupe invaded Oyo and sacked the capital where Onigbogi, the Alaafin (king), fled to the land of the Ibariba and died there.
The Oyo Empire had no Alaafin for 85 years until Ofinran became Alaafin in 1542.

Wow Yorubas have a very long documented history. Apart from the Biafra war that was in the 60’s I don’t know any Igbo history before 1960. It will be nice to know any Igbo history before 1960.
