Rulers of Emure Kingdom
The Emure Kingdom traces its royal lineage to Oduduwa, the legendary progenitor of the Yoruba people. The ruling dynasty of Emure stems from Oduduwa's son Okanbi, whose son Oranmiyan is a central figure in the foundation of several Yoruba kingdoms, including Ife, Oyo, and Benin.
The founder of the Emure Kingdom was Fagbamila Obadudu, a descendant of Oranmiyan through his son Obele. Fagbamila Obadudu established Emure as a royal center and one of the sixteen crowned kingdoms of Ekiti. His two sons, Abenimota and Adumori, became the progenitors of the two royal houses of Emure. Since the late twentieth century, the kingship of Emure (styled "Elemure") has alternated between these two lineages.
