INTER-GROUP RELATIONS AMONG THE OGWASHI-UKU PEOPLE OF ANIOCHA SOUTH LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA IN DELTA STATE AND ITS NEIGHBORS  

CHAPTER ONE Introduction

Historical records has it that a number of neighboring towns of Ogwashi-Uku such as Ibuzo, Ubulu-uku, Agbor e.t.c were founded  in the sixteenth century and early seventeenth Century. On the other hand, traditional sources ascribe the funding of Ogwashi-Uku Kingdom to the people of Ikelike. There was the emergence of the Ikelile people in the kingdom followed by the state of migrations from the East and West of the Niger-Delta area of what later became known as the protectorate of Southern Nigeria.

          According to T.A. Tabor in his book titled Southern Nigeria Vol 1, two families appeared to have left Benin at the same time, one of which settled at (Agbor), while the other went on to Obior while some continued to Onicha-Ugbo and others at a later date to Onicha-Olona.

          Owing to its proximity to Asaba where the Royal Niger Company established a station as Royal Niger Company established a station as early as 1884, the people of Ogwashi-Uku clan has on early Western Education, Mission Schools were established in Ogwashi-Uku by the Church missionary society in 1907. While on the other hand, the Roman Catholic Church was established in Ogwashi-uku in the year 1905, while the present government school was founded in 1911 soon after the establishment of Ogwashi-Uku as the headquarters of the Asaba division in 19101.

           In view of the above, the people had facilities for Western Education and a majority of its male indigenes having acquired early European education were found in the employment of colonial and post colonial civil service. 

           The nature of occupational practices in Pre-colonial times was mainly farming, though an insignificant number of the women folk engaged in crafting e.g. weaving. However, a quarter in Ogwashi-Uku called Ogbe-Nti where the Obi’s palace is situated would prefer trading to farming because of its proximity to the Obi. The reason is that they benefited from the general benevolence of the people who made available their farming proceeds during harvest in form of yam, cassava, plantain, coconut, palm oil, bush animal etc. The Ogbe-nti therefore took advantage of these ‘supplies’ to engage in petty trading

Justification of Research

          The justification of this project is that it will not only portray to the reader the ideal response of the history and culture of Ogwashi-Uku people, but also create a situation where culture will be given a wider dimension in Nigeria. It is hope that the result of the study would provide government information concerning the history and culture of Ogwashi-Uku people.

The aim of this work is to carefully examine inter-group relations among the Ogwashi-Uku people of Aniocha South Local Government Area in Delta state and its neighbors with emphasis on their socio-cultural and political relations in the pre-colonial era.

          The objective of this work is to outline the areas and extent of such relations.

          Udeh Patricks in his book Legacy of Crisis: Ogwashi-Uku Kingdom”4 examined the inter-group relations of Ogwashi-Uku and her neighbor in terms of trading, marriages etc. He elaborated on the indigenous cultural practices of Ogwashi-Uku people as well as their political set-up.

          P.A Talbot in his book titled The People of Southern Nigeria,5 shows the immigration and emigration of Ogwashi populace. Talbot emphasized on the original spot where the first Ogwashi-Uku people ever settled and he gave a clear description on how the fugitives and refugees from Benin and East of the River-Niger in Awka province in present day Anambra State met at a particular time and settled in a different spot.

          J.C Anene in his book titled Southern Nigeria in Transition,6 posits that the wide range Benin Empire in the sixteenth to nineteenth Century encompassed almost all the ethnic groups in the lower Niger, the nineteenth Century Saw majority of these outlying portions of this empires become virtually Independent. As of the Igbos, he stressed that they were ruled by Obi, equally Ogwashi-Uku, Ubulu-uku, Isele-uku and Onicha-olona era.

          Espousing further in his work, he gave a thorough explanation on how the foreign invaders burnt down the Anglican and Roman Catholic mission stations in Onicha-olona, Ezi and Onicha-uku while the native court building at Ogwashi-Uku, Onicha-ugbo, Ibuzo were pulled down and destroyed.

           J.Ozieh in his book titled Traditional Beliefs of the People of Ogwashi-Uku,7 point out the social life of the people and how they social relates with Ibuzo, Ubulu-uku In terms of trade marriages and other social activities in the pre-colonial times.
