Owu Waterfall by Pinnacle4life(op): 4:59pm On Aug 02, 2020
Owu Waterfall is a waterfall located in Isin Local Government Area of Kwara. said to have been discovered by a local hunter, Jimoh Aremu but brought to limelight by a missionary over 40 years ago, Reverend Plafare Dui.

It's the tallest waterfall in West Africa measuring 120m above the water level and cascades 330 feet down an escarpment, with rocky out crops collected at the base as a natural swimming pool.

Owu waterfall has a potential of becoming a tourist hub but presently the area is under neglect and underdevelopment by the state government. Getting to the waterfall is through a rough untarred road with undulating slopes which is a form of adventure and excitement on its own.

The whole of Nigeria enjoys more than enough sunlight but still no light.

Don't be surprised if those villages around the waterfall have not had power in over a year.
