==History==
The Sango Festival celebrations can be traced back to 1,000 years ago following the departure of Sango, a popular Yoruba ''Òrìşà'' who is widely regarded as the founding father of present-day Oyo State.
Sango was a notable strong ruler and magician who became king of Oyo Empire after succeeding his elder brother who was perceived to be a "weak ruler".〔Ajaka〕 Believed to bring prosperity to the people of the Oyo Empire during his reign, Sango's death has been linked to different mythical stories. It is believed that Sango committed suicide by hanging himself in order to avoid humiliation from one of his powerful chiefs who ordered Sango to vacate his throne or face war.
