Tourism

Awe inspiring tourist site discovered in Osun.

“IT is not that we are unaware of water here, yes, there is Ogan water, but we never knew there is a fall here. We never knew that the fall is as beautiful as this.

“We never knew that we are again blessed by Almighty God with another fantastic natural tourism site. We never knew the magnitude of this fall, with unique features different from Ayinkunugba Waterfall”

“I am happy about this. I will take the necessary step to intimate the chairman of my local government and also inform the Governor of the state, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola who has been so good to this town about the new discovery. I thank my progenitors, the founder of this town, for locating us in a land full of blessings and natural wonders”.

Oba Adedokun Omoniyi Abolarin, Aroyinkeye II Orangun of Oke Ila, who led newsmen to the appealing waterfall which was discovered recently said.

The uncovered waterfall housed by Ogan forest is located in the ancient town of Oke – Ila Orangun, Ifedayo Local Government Area of Osun State.

The work of nature is said to be the second waterfall that will be discovered in the town as Ayikunugba, one of the most exciting waterfall in Nigeria was also hosted in that community.

This awe- inspiring waterfall is armored by thick jungle of Ogan forest located on the right part of the Oke –Ila Orangun road.

The refreshing ambience thickens while going through the paths which accommodate trees, shrubs, cool and refreshing breeze with evergreen vegetation.

Its general appearance and beauty can be seen through the peak of a hill which offers an amazing view of the waterfall flowing and splashing down, creating natural swimming pool spots.

This sparks the first fire of excitement that pervades the veins of any visitor at the fall. For most tourists, fun seekers, picnickers and film makers, Ogan waterfall is a place to be.

One cannot visit the tourism site without appreciating the work of nature, but the state government housing such a goldmine as a tourist centre can make conscious efforts to explore and, indeed, dig up the waiting gold as a means of accelerating its Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), expert advised.
