Did you know? 👑

The Olu of Warri does not rule over the entire Warri LGA. In fact, Warri LGA is governed by four kings, each with equal status, representing different kingdoms. They are:

1. The Ovie of Agbarha Kingdom

2. The Orosuen of Okere Urhobo Kingdom

3. The Amakosu of Ogbe-Ijoh Kingdom

4. The Olu of Iwerre (Warri) Kingdom

No king is greater than the others!

MY SON QUESTION WAS UNANSWERED TILL DATE

It is time honestly as a people we begin to intentionally look for creative ways of making the Wakirike society better.

The unexpected question occured - Daddy, is this how your fathers kept the waterfront for you when you swim in it? I was dumfounded, and he intelligently asked if l expect him to come and swim in these rivers, it is better for me to follow my friends to swim at the swimming pools in Port Harcourt than here dad, he said.

While there is nothing wrong about our visit to the waterfront l once cherished, our visit clearly shows how my generation had intentionally disconnect the next culturally and environmentally wise. My son will never be interested at that waterfront again but it was the place where l was taught how to swim, the place where we do community service by pouring sand on the tracks leading to the river at low tide, it was the gathering place of all children enjoying the sweetness of the river, where the elderly taught us how to cast net and other fishing activities, these activities l cannot teach my son at the swimming pool of hotels even though they are bea
