Oyo River

The Oyo River is a river located in Nigeria, primarily flowing through Oyo State. It is a significant tributary of the Ogun River. The river's course generally trends from north to south, eventually joining the Ogun River which ultimately empties into the Lagos Lagoon.

The river plays an important role in the local ecosystem and serves as a source of water for irrigation, domestic use, and potentially fishing for communities living along its banks. The surrounding land is often used for agriculture.

Hydrological studies and management of the Oyo River are important for sustainable development in the region, especially considering the challenges of water scarcity and environmental degradation in parts of Nigeria. The river's flow and water quality are influenced by seasonal rainfall patterns and land use practices in its catchment area.
