Thanks Oniovo. I saw the Warri post late so I just chill. You guys did justice to it. Kudos.

That's true about Uwherun. The traditional ruler of Uwherun is called Odion r'Ode. Odion is an ancient Edo/Urhobo/Isoko word for elders and it's sometimes used to refer to the departed ancestors. I was raised in Odion in Warri(Iyara, Cemetery Road, Sido axis) and I later found that it was the first settlement of the Agbarha-Ame people where there was an Ogwan for the reverence of the ancestors. The village heads in Benin are known as Odionwere... It goes on and on.

The word Olorogun is just for the name value and many people use it for convenience. The Chieftaincy Institution remains original with corresponding titles throughout Urhoboland. Micheal Ibru for example, was himself an Ohonvwore by virtue of the fact that he was conferred that title by the Ovie of Agbarha-Otor, his hometown. A Chief of Agbon or Okpe is Okakuro, Ughelli, Ohonvwore etc.

I'll show you a video about Ema dance with a short explanation about the Olorogun title by Chief Achonacho, the great Urhobo Orator.

wow.. I also grew up in that area
