Ohun iní òkú ni à ń pè ní

When someone dies, they leave behind property and possessions. In Yoruba, these belongings are called “ogun.” This is what the living family members inherit.

The word “ogun” refers to the inheritance itself, not the act of inheriting. It includes land, money, houses, and other valuable items left behind.

Inheritance practices are important in Yoruba culture. The distribution of “ogun” follows traditional rules and family customs.
