@Op nice job, but the list is incomplete. More so number 138, Gokana n khana are local government areas in Rivers State not tribes, they are the Ogonis. Ogoni comprises of 3 local government areas, the 2 mentioned above and Tai LGA. Ikwerre, the biggest tribe in Rivers State is omitted. |

donsteady: Okpe kingdom is one of the highly revered and respected kingdom in Urhobo land. The Orodje of Okpe is a First Class monarch and one of the most influential monarchs in Delta State. Okpe people speak a distinct dialect of Urhobo that has striking similarities to Isoko. Their dialect is almost unintelligible to other Urhobo speakers but the average Okpe man can speak and understand central Agbarho Urhobo. Okpe kingdom encompasses Orerokpe, the traditional headquarters, through Amukpe and Aghalokpe, to Sapele, the commercial city of Okpe kingdom! Other major towns include Okuokoko and Osubi which are in the Warri Metropolis, Oha, Okuodiete, etc. Ask me what you want to know about Okpe people if you are interested 1 Like |

DRCIC: What of Eleme LGA? Are the people there not also Ogoni? Ikwerre is an Igboid group hence its omission. However, it is the major group in Rivers State and they have always maintained their distinctiveness from Igbo by virtue of self-determination and thus, they deserve a separate mention! 1 Like |

martha89: Correct me if I am wrong but I believe Esan kings are ONLY Dukes (Enogies) and Reagents (Odions) to the Oba of Benin ? This is a common trend to all the tribes in Edo State. The former Benin Empire made sure of this hegemonic system. 1 Like |

martha89: Urhobos don't subscribe to the Oba of Benin so we dont have dukes. We dont even have Enogies or Odions in Urhoboland. I told you this before. Mind you, all ENOGIES and ODIONS are subject to confirmation by the OBA!!! Ask your elders for your tradition. Dont make me teach you online. 1 Like |

martha89: In that same wiki link you posted, you forgot to read this: Esan kingdoms had a varying degree of autonomy, but were ultimately controlled by the Benin Empire. The Oba approved the Enogie of Esanland, and Esan kingdoms paid tribute to Benin. 1 Like |
