Kwale Delta state
We Should also start with this two major town.. namely Utagba-Ogbe, kwale And Okpai kingdom.
But am starting with Kwale, and then the giant of Kwale is Utagba-ogbe, but am yet to gather other facts about Okpai kingdom. So my next research will be on Okpai Kingdom.
Kwale:-
Kwale is a city in Delta State, Nigeria and is located within the colonial Warri province. Kwale is generally considered as a city especially considering it oil and gas reserves, its location all of which can be utilized to transform the town and neighbouring areas into becoming an enviable city. Kwale is host to oil and gas companies some of which have presence in different parts of the African city such as a gas flow facility at Ebedei nearby Umukwata area and another at Ebendo and Umusadege with a pipeline running from Aboh and river Ase creeks
There are considerations about the establishment of modular refineries within the area The main and only Electricity generation facility in Delta North is at Okpai within the city of Kwale.
Its not easy for Aproko pdR to get much facts, Hence, one has to rely on oral traditions from the Okpala’s, Okwa’s, Onotu’s (Inotu’s), Eze’s, Ada’s and some other experienced men in Utagba-Ogbe whose source of knowledge was also through oral tradition.
Considering the fact that the city of Kwale is populated by more than one native group, it is impossible to obtain exact information about the history of the city for each group migrated into the city at different times and each group could claim to be the first but to avoid violence, the history of the city will be left out
But lets talk litte about Utagba-Ogbe.
Utagba-Ogbe was a systematic settlement in Nigeria of Utagba-Uno soldiers who went to fight the Agha Ashaka (1750 AD). The battlefield was near hence it was so called. Therefore, it should not be mistaken to be war with Ashaka. The exact date of war is not certain but some elders say that their fathers told them that their grandfathers were not born at the time of the war. A member of a family in Utagba-Ogbe could name six (6) of his grandparents who had lived at Utagba-Ogbe. Utagba Uno witnessed incessant aggressions from clans along the Ase river either trying to find a place uplands or to intimidate an old settlement like Utagba-Uno. It is said that there were no other settlement then between Utagba-Uno and the present Utagba-Ogbe except Onicha-Ukwuani clan at the corner. So, the purpose of the settlement at Utagba-Ogbe was not territorial but was based on military expediency.
Today the people of Utagba-Ogbe are so nice and friendly. They Welcome visitors, their youths are hard working, with also a lot of graduates, although there is less job opportunity, yet that are living fine.
