Oku people (Sierra Leone)
The Oku people, or Aku people or Aku Mohammedans, are a community in Sierra Leone closely related to the Yoruba people of Nigeria. The Oku community has strong links to Aberdeen Village, Fourah Bay and Fula Town. The Oku people are mainly descended from Yoruba Liberated Africans who retained or were converted to the Islamic faith during the nineteenth century. Some scholars argue that the Oku people are a branch of the Sierra Leone Creole people, while other scholars refute this theory and argue that the Oku people are distinct from the Sierra Leone Creoles.
==Origin==
The Oku people are mainly descended from the Yoruba Liberated Africans that were resettled in Sierra Leone during the nineteenth century. These Liberated Africans formed a distinctive community based at Aberdeen village, Fourah Bay, and Fula Town. As early as the 1840s, there were references to 'Aku Mohammedans' and because the communities at Fourah Bay were distinctly of the Yoruba tribe, they were referred to as 'Aku' or 'Oku' Mohammedans.
