Iragbiji (also Ira-gba-iji) is a town and capital of the Boripe Local Government Area, Osun State, Nigeria, near Ikirun. The town is inhabited by the Yoruba people. The population of the town is about 164,172.

The name "Iragbiji" came into use over 600 years ago, it was reported that the first settlers made their homes under an IRA tree (Bradilier Thongy). The town was founded by a great hunter from Ejio compound in Moore, Ile Ife called Sunkungbade (Obebe). The man Sunkungbade got his name from a drama he created while he was still an infant. He was said to be in the habit of crying ceaselessly and not even the milk of his mother's breasts could soothe him. As it was the practice in those days, an ifa (oracle) was consulted to determine why he cried so much. The ifa advised his parents to make a miniature crown and place it on his head whenever he cried. The oracle's advice worked, and so Sunkungbade (he who cried to get a crown) was added to his names. The Ifa priest, Oladunjoye, foretold that when Sunkungbade became an adult, he would ask to found his own community and that he should be allowed to do so. As the child matured, he started exhibiting all the traits the priest had foretold. He was courageous, intelligent, strong-willed and especially attached to tradition and culture. He married a woman named Oloyade. He asked his parents to be allow him to leave and found his own settlement. Remembering the oracle's advice, his parents gave their blessing.

The Sukungbade's descendants are broken down into four ruling houses: Ajibode, Ogunmolu, Osungbemi, and Arowodoye/Arodoye.

The Sukungbade's descendants have been Aragbijis in unbroken succession since the founding of Iragbiji. The present Aragbiji, Oba Rasheed Ayotunde Olabomi, Odundun IV is the fourth on the Ajibode Ruling House Lineage.
