The Ibarapa are a Yoruba people group located in the Southwestern corner of Oyo State.[1] The name of the group is derived from a local cultivar of the melon plant, known locally as Egusi Ibara, which was historically acknowledged by neighboring peoples such as the Egbas, Ibadans and Oyos to be extensively cultivated in the area.[citation needed]
