Igga: A People

Igga is a people of the present day Uzo-Uwani in Enugu State of Nigeria. Igga is one of the four Ogboli communities whose people traced their origin back to Igala kingdom ruled by Attah Igala (The Father of Igalas). Igga is at the extreme end of Enugu State bordering Anambra to the South, Kogi State (Ibaji Clan) to the West, Ogulugu community (one of the four Ogboli communities) to the North and Adani community, an Uzo-Uwani community in Enugu State to the East.

Igga is a community rich in natural resources including crude oil deposits. Igga was in Anambra when Enugu was still a part of old Anambra State hence the name Anambra forest reserve which is located in it's river side along Ponti (Ferry Crossing along Igga Odeke road via oil field route).

Currently, Anambra and Kogi state lay claims to the oil field locations where crude oil deposits were found in commercial quantities. The community has original boundary with kogi state where the oil is found. Anambra community called Aguleri who is lying claims today are settlers who are predominantly fishermen and were allowed by the people of Igga to fish and look after the farm land for them. Nigerian government is currently looking into ways of finding a lasting solution.

Igga people are predominantly farmers and currently producing rice in commercial quantities with the brand name Adarice. The name is coined to the community called adani where the rice is being sold in wholesale quantities to people of Anambra State, Kogi State and Nsukka people of Enugu State.
