Some Histories That Were Never Taught.. Chapter 1 by BlackZeus17(op): 8:36pm On Aug 08, 2021
THIS IS OBIGBO!
For 1,000s of years Obigbo was part of present day, Abia state, south of Imo river.
In 1976, as part Civil War settlement to Eastern Nigerian in the Island, Obigbo was expunged from IMO state (IMO & Abia) and added to Present Rivers state.
Obigbo was renamed to Oyibo by Justice Mamman Nadir led Fed boundary adjustment commission to cancel their actions.

It was always Oyigbo

It was Azikiwe and Ojukwu that renamed it Obigbo but it had always been Oyigbo named by the Ogoni

Majority of Oyigbo Local Government Area was Ogoniland and Ojukwu deported and killed many Ogoni in order to disposes them of their Ancestral land
