Ilie Ilie Town is one of the towns comprising Olorunda Local Government Area of Osun State of Nigeria. Ilie Town has been in existence for the past 500 years as it was founded by KUARU who left Ifon-Bale with his brothers to found it. Presently there are two ruling houses in respect of Alie of Alie Chieftaincy namely: (I) KUARU RULING HOUSE & (II) OYEBOADE RULING HOUSE. Alie of Ilie Chieftaincy is one of the chieftaincies under part 2 of the Chiefs Law of Osun State of Nigeria 2002 and ascension to the throne of Alie of Ilie was promulgated in 1957 and as Amended Alie of the Chieftaincy Declaration of 1982 Alie of Ilie Chieftaincy Declaration was first made in 1957 during the reign of Alie Orisadare (otherwise known as "Oyedare").

BRIEF HISTORY OF ILIE Ilie town was founded by KUARU around the 16th Century. KUARU the founder of Ilie town was a direct descendant of Akogun Erujeje the founder of Ifon-Bale. KUARU contested the vacant stool of Olufon with his younger brother Alabelewe and lost. He left Ifon-Bale in annoyance when Chief Oloriga of Ifon broke the news that his younger brother was installed as the Olufon. He left Ifon-Bale with their father's crown and the Orisa nla, leaving a taboo that no reigning Olufon will have access to the Orisa nla again! He also killed the Oloriga who broke the news to him. As a result of this, the title of Oloriga has since been abolished as a High Chief in Ifon. It is also forbidden for any Olufon to see the Orisa nla now renamed OrisaOnire. No Olufon dare come to Ilie without undergoing some rituals before doing so. He must appease to the spirits of their ancestors for the betrayal. KUARU left Ifon and settled at a river away from Ifon as his 1st settlement. He named the river ADARA because his junior brother betrayed him. This river remains the boundary between Ifon-Osun and Ilie town till today. KUARU had two Children, a male and a female (Oyepolu and Dada Ogbegun) After he had formally settled down in his new place, because of his tough nature people became afraid of going near him, it will take a man double courage to go to where the tough-man is settled (Baba Lile's settlement). It is this Baba Lile's settlement that metamorphosed to ILIE town today. During the reign of Alie Oyepolu, the Alaafin of Oyo sent two emissaries to the Orangun of Ila, but one of them was killed by a trap set for animals at a place near Ilie town. As a result, Alaafin arrested Alie Oyepolu and took him to Oyo. He was found guilty and fined 80,000 cowries; it was Dada Ogbegun his younger sister that raised the fund to pay the fine. This spot where Alaafin’s emissary died is now called Odo Ogbegun a.k.a ODO OGBE. Ogbe stream is the boundary between Ilie and Iresa-du in surulere Local Government of Oyo State. Because of this spectacular action of Dada Ogbegun, Oyepolu pronounced that all the children of Dada Ogbegun should henceforth be entitled to ascend the throne of Alie. This formed the beginning of the female line called Oyeboade Ruling House Dada Ogbegun had only one child named Orisajenyo who gave birth to six children. Oyeboade, Siyanbola, Subulubi, Ogundeji, Orisabamideyi and Winlewe. Thus Alie has two Ruling houses: (A)	KUARU		(B)  OYEBOADE Find below the names of all the past and present Alie of Ilie land 1.
