Nairaland / General / 10 Factors You Need To Consider Before Renting A House In Lagos by PedestrianNewsN: 5:23pm On Jun 13, 2018
Lagos is the most populous state in Nigeria. According to World Population Review an estimated 21m people live in Lagos and over 100,000 people migrate to Lagos yearly. This is due to its commercial nature and as a result, Lagos is congested.


House hunting in Lagos is herculean but you can get-by if you know what you want and how to go about it. Of course, you would need to hire an estate agent/real estate broker to do the search work for you.

Usually your budget determines the location and the kind of environment you are likely to move into. Whatever your budget/location there are basic factors that you need to put into consideration before moving to a new place.


Here are some factors you need to consider before making that move:

Nairaland / General / Brief History Of Obowo L.G.A Imo State by PedestrianNewsN: 6:07am On May 29, 2018
Obowo to the world - by Prince Ahamefule

Obowo is one of the three clans that make up the former Etiti Local Government Area.


It is bounded in the north by Ihitte; in the south-east by the Imo River; in the south-west by Mbaise; and in the north-west by Ehime clan of Ehime Mbano Local Government Area. There are fourteen villages in Obowo namely, Achara, Alike, Amanze, Amuzi, Avutu, Ehume, Odenkume, Okwuohia, Umuariam, Umulogho, Umunachi, Umungwa, Umuokeh, and Umuosochie.


The history of Obowo in particular is traceable to the son of a couple Azu (man) and Ahude (woman) – both of Dinka in Agbaja in Mbano. Obowo had two other brothers (Obohia and Obokwu) who left their home for Mbaise where Obohia settled and founded the clan that is today known by that name. Obokwu, on the other hand, founded the communities around the area now known as Ihitte-Afukwu. But Obowo continued his settlement here, Obowo married a woman (Adare) from Ujichi Ahiara; and through Adare, he had a son (Okwunanso) who in turn married one Nkwo from Ezido (near Ujichi).



From this marriage, Okwunanso had seven sons, Alike, Okwuohia, Amuzi, Umulogho, Oke, Nachi, and Avutu. Thus, these seven sons became the founding fathers of the seven villages of Okwunanso, namely, Alike, Amuzi, Okwuohia, Umuoke, Umulogho, Umunachi, and Avutu.


Obowo was a polygamist with his second wife from Umuopara Umuahia. By this second wife Adaure, Obowo had a son called Ekwerenote , who in turn also had seven sons. These seven sons became the founding fathers of the seven villages that make up the Ekwerenote group: Ehume, Umuosochie, Umuariam, Odenkume, Amanze, Umungwa and Achara.


Therefore, we note that a man called Obowo had two wives through whom he had a son each. In turn, the two sons had seven sons each and these became the founding fathers of the fourteen villages in Obowo.



However, there is another historic account of Obowo that deals with it purely as a geographical location, a place, rather than a person. According to this school of thought, the first people to settle in Obowo were the Ikenga from Mbano. The Ikenga included Ehume, Umuosochie, Umuariam, Umuhu, Okauga, Umudiawa etc. They were not alone in their journey to Obowo but came along with another migrant clan – Ihitte. But while the Ikenga settled within the area now known as Obowo, the Ihitte settled at a place quite near to Obowo.


It is, therefore, likely that Ikenga and the Ihitte were kinsmen, hence in libations we often say: NDU IKENGA; NDU IHITTE. The Ikenga established the Onugotu (one voice) at Ehume before dispersing to other parts of Obowo.


The Onugotu shrine which is present at Ehume today appears to have been recognized by all Obowo communities as evidence of Ehume’s precedence in the settlement of the area and served as a symbol of unity.


Another group to migrate to Obowo was the Okwu. It was this group that established Alike, Amuzi, Okwuohia – the villages now collectively referred to as Okwu. They were followed by yet another group, the Nso (followers); and it would, appear that the Okwu and Nso were.....
