It is a crystal clear water that got its freshness aqua blue from the nature beauty of the grasses and trees around it. The fishes and water animals could be seen inside the water including the items at the bottom of the rivers. The beauty emanates fully when the sun shines on the river which would leave the viewers marveled. It is also surrounded by the azumini hill which provides a wonderful view to the river. This has been a major tourist attraction for visitors coming to the state.

4. The Long Juju of Arochukwu


This was a giant shrine that was used to mete out punishment to offenders in the village. the suspect would enter the shrine and swear, if found guilty the person would die immediately and the blood would flow out.

The shrine was destroyed in 1901 by military personnel

if Nigeria was a planned country with visionary leaders, revenue generated from tourist sites would have been funding at-least 10% of our budget.

When our Niger delta brothers were kidnapping, the kidnapees were been fed chicken and burger and Mr Biggs rice.....

But when our york and columbia boys from abia entered the game, nwanne, they started feeding people with koboko...3times a day.....tie you to trees, blindfold u for days before your release from captivity..... and sometimes, still kill the victim after collecting huge ransom....

If you like bro, go and try your luck

How many states in Nigeria today are more safe than Abia state? If indeed you are from Abia state then shame on you.
Lagos with all the killings by Badoo and other cultists. What about kidnappings and ritual killings ravaging Lagos and the rest of the SW? Are people no longer going to those places? What about Northern states reeling from a combo of Boko Haram killings and kidnappings as well as herdsmen killings and maiming?? What about ND with ongoing violence in Rivers, Bayelsa etc??
Is it not approaching a decade since osisikankwu was killed?
Ahu odikwa gi? Nna, ndi muru gi gba aka nwa

Op, you didn't add the enchanting Okigwe rolling hills close to Okigwe?
