In the 1990s, Some Ibadan Chiefs went to a meeting with an Oyinbo District Officer.
In the course of the meeting, the Oyinbo man was so happy with what the Ibadan Chiefs had to report via an interpreter and he kept saying:
good good good good good good good
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
One of the Chiefs counted the number of the âgoodâ [which was 7] and âyeahâ [which was 6].
When they got back to Ibadan, he reported to Ibadan folks that the Oyinbo man was so impressed that he responded with âgood goodâ (gudu gudu) 7 times and âyeah yeahâ (ya ya) 6 times

According to a pioneer Baptist Missionary who recorded his travel in "The Romance of Missions in Nigeria" Rev. S. G. Pinnock described ĂgbĂłmá»Ìsá»Ì in these words:
âOgbomosho in 1891 was a walled city, the gates of which were closely watched by day and securely closed by night. There was little or no communication between it and Oyo and Ilorin which were only thirty miles to the north and south.
The town, picturesque and well-watered was isolated from the rest of the Yoruba towns. Political relations were maintained with Ibadan, for the country depended on its security on the warriors of Ogbomosho and Ikirun. The strength of Ogbomosho lay in the wall and moat surrounding the town, and the warriors made full use of it by sitting close and tightâ
