Ifiekporo community: Uduaghan’s   china-modelled city

Ifiekporo community shares landmass with Ijala, Itsekiri’s ancestral heartbeat location of Warri Royal Cemetery, and where Itsekiri’s first king, Ginuwa, settled around 1480 before crossing over to Ode-Itsekiri which is not far from Ifie. Both of them are located in Warri South Local Government Area. Before 2007, Ifiekporo was accessible off the Refinery Jetty road. It was referred to as “that community behind Warri Refinery” or a reference for pottery and fishing, the two predominant trades of Ifiekporo indigenes before 2007.

The government should disarm them first and institute a punishment for the killer herdsmen before considering cattle ranches.
