The Ohori (sometimes called Ije) or Ọ̀họ̀rí-Ìjè are a subgroup of the Yoruba people of West Africa. The local domain of the Ohori is South-eastern Benin north of Pobè (Pọ̀bẹ́ / Ìpọ̀bẹ́) town expanding westwards to and west of the Ouémé River. Often, Ohoris, together with groups of Ifonyins, Aworis and Ketus are known collectively as 'Nagos" in Benin.
