Uvwie is one of the major kingdom in Urhoboland, It is bounded by Okpe Kingdom (Urhobo) in the North and Udu and Ughiẹvwen in the North-West, Agbarho kingdom in the North East, Agbarho-Ame in the East, Okere kingdom in the South and Itsekiri in the South West. Uvwie Kingdom just like most Urhobo kingdoms in Warri, Udu, okpe etc is 100% urban and a centre of civilization for the Urhobo people. The kingdom is home to Nigeria's major Companies and facilities, such as Federal University of Petroleum Resource Effurun (Best petroleum University in West Africa), Petroleum Training Institute Effurun (Best Petroleum institute in West Africa), Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (Warri Refinery).

I was in Warri that weekend, all the shops were forcefully closed, even the vulcanizer that opened in the early morning was chased away, i was like in this 21st century, truly Donald Trump was not so far from the truth, we went everywhere looking for where to print a report no way. 3 Likes |

Ovie r'Uvwie, wo su ntor! He is one of the most important kings in Urhoboland and he controls one of the largest kingdoms. Most of what we know as present day Warri is under his domain. His kingdom is also 100% urbanised, making Uvwie a center of Urhobo civilisation. He is royalty personified! A true scion and advocate of Urhobo! Umogu! Umogu! Wo sun tor, Wo rhie tor! Happy 10th anniversary! Your reign has been peaceful and impactful. Uvwie wadoo! Lko Opharhe Onosprince DBriteLitehouse Scionofurhobo Caringguy 21 Likes 1 Share |

You guys derail or hijack just about every Urhobo thread on Nairaland with your busybodying and troublemaking. Rubbish! 8 Likes |

otokx: Of course. We have our own traditional ways of enforcing laws and this has been so since time immemorial! If the Ovie has said no shops should be open in his traditional and historical domain, then no shop should open. Anyone who disobeys the instruction is indirectly taunting the Ovie and he can use his traditional police to enforce his decree. The government of the day does this everytime using the military or police. So stop being all sanctimonious about a normal everyday thing. 18 Likes 1 Share |

fratermathy: It was a week long activity which climaxed with the commissioning of the ultra modern new Uvwie permanent palace by Gov. Okowa. The ceremony also witnessed the conferment of chieftaincy titles on 29 distinguished individuals including my unclue. Uvwie arguably is one of the most urbanized local government in Nigeria. HRM E E Sideso a retired Director of Mint, CBN, is presently one of the most educated, exposed and travelled king in Urhobo land. May he continue to reign in good health. Uvwie boma rufe!

The new palace is directly opposite my former parish. My question for the Urhobos here: Among all the Urhobo kings: Ovie of Uvwie, Ovie of Ughelli, Oroseun of Okere-Urhobo , Orodje of Okpe, King of Agbon clan etc, which of them is the most popular or should I say commands the most respect?

Uvwie is synonymous with civil disturbances.The indigenous youths are epitome of trouble and intimidation,this attitude lead to the avalanche of oil firms from uvwie to port Harcourt.This level of roguery,and youths restiveness has lead to a high decline in development and economic activities. Uvwie is reputed as the most dirtiest local government in the state considering its huge internally generated revenue which goes into private pockets. 2 Likes |

fratermathy:I grew up in Uvwie but I'm surprised that the Uvwie and indeed the Urhobo people do not talk about their history to as far back as 200yrs ago. Since u r a proud Urhobo son, my question to u is, do the Urhobo people have a long history, why don't we have an urhobo kingdom(exception is Okpe kingdom) with up to 10 kings in their history |

coputa: You seem to have problems understanding simple English. It was clearly stated that most of what we "know" as present day Warri is under the Ovie's domain. Many people regard Effurun, Enerhen, Ekpan, etc as part of the cosmopolitan Warri which has grown large via conurbation. Stop ruffling your frail feathers. 1 Like |
