OUR HISTORY

OKPE TRIBE IN DELTA STATE AND HER CULTURE

Reclaiming Orerokpe Town after 150yrs

Esezi the first Ekweri was very wicked, and the other 3 houses of Orhue, Evbreke and Orhoro , assassinated the king and waged War against the Esezi house, So they chased them from Orerokpe, called “Adane Okpe” as at that time….Later the 3 remaining houses of Orhue, Evbreke and Orhoro, also quarreled and waged War on themselves, this led to the destruction of Orerokpe and it was abandoned around 1780, it was abandoned for 150 years. During this Period, the Okpe people, founded 2 more capital for themselves, the first one was in Ugolo around 1840, and they elected Idiemor as the clan head,…But quarrel broke out between Idiemor and the Amuokpe House led by Orholor and Orholor was killed….And so Amuokpe led by Odjegba son of Orholor declared independence. ..The other Okpes from Ugolo declared total War on Odjegba of Amuokpe, but Odjegba whose mother was from Itsekiri, brought her people to aid her son and the Okpes were defeated, many of them were captured and sold into Slavery…..But Later, the Okpes became united, and deposed Idiemor, and moved the Capital from Ugolo to Odjedi, this happened in 1890….
