Ancient town in Abia State, Nigeria

About Abiriba

Abiriba regarded as an ancient Enuda kingdom. It is located in the Ohafia local government area in the state. At the heart of Abiriba — the very centre of the town — is a large, ancient tree "Okpu Achi" (Achi tree). The tree is both symbolic and spiritual; and many believe that in the event of its fall, water from Okpu Achi would engulf the entire Abiriba land. Legend also has it that the Ishimokoto River is so mystical that when foreigners tried to leave town with a bottle of water from the river — the bottle broke apart and the water flew miles back to the river.
