Abstract

Abstract This study examined the historical criminal behaviours of three important pre-colonial Yoruba political figures: Efunsetan Aniwura, Bashorun Gaa and Aare Ogunrinde Aje (Aare Ago Arikuyeri). The study utilized historical research design, and qualitative method was equally used to complement the study in form of soft data (photos). The historical background of each of the three personalities was thoroughly examined and the crimes of each of them were explained painstakingly. The paper concluded by recommending further studies on other personalities in Yoruba history and other African societies in general, who had similar life events. Furthermore, it is recommended that such findings should be cited within political cycle as warnings to those who are at the moment holding political power and those who will hold them in the future. Finally, such findings will equally bring history closer to the younger generation.
