Lalupon is a community on the outskirt of Ibadan located in Lagelu Local Government of Oyo State.[1]

History

On September 29, 1957, a train derailment led to the death of 66 passengers out of a total of 370.[3] After days of rainfall, there was a washout around the tracks within Lalupon and Olodo stations and trains were given a caution sign to proceed. When the train reached mile 138 between Lalupon and Odo-Oba, the track buckled under the weight of the train and 7 out of the 16 cars derailed.

It was within the area that the duo of Aguiyi Ironsi and Adekunle Fajuyi were shot by soldiers of the July 1966, Nigeria coup.[4]
