Ika Nation is among the tribes in Nigeria, although it's a minority tribe with less than 600,000 people. It's located in the current Delta and Edo state.

Agbor is the oldest and strongest Ika Clan from the Ancient days till today.

The existence of Agbor started before 700 BC

The first Dein of Agbor who was name Ebonka in 1270 AD

It said that the first dwellers are from Semi Bantu stock. Years before Bini (Idu) came in also

Base on record 50% was from Semi Bantu stock 40% are from Bini 10% from the west and East due to intermarriage, invasion and slavery.

Ika is a tribe, and a language with more than 7 dialect.

Ika constitutionally welded together eleven clans, namely in the following alphabetical order: ABAVO, AGBOR, AKUMAZI, IDUMUESAH, IGBODO, MBIRI, OTOLOKPO, OWA, UMUNEDE, UTE-OGBEJE, UTE-OKPU.

Until the beginning of the British Colonial rule in the early 20th century AD, Ika was larger than it is today. It enveloped a sizeable geographical area including the present two Ika Local Government Areas then as one Ika community and Igbanke, Ogan, Ute- Ohenze, Ugo, Urhonigbe and many other towns presently located in Edo State. So also, was Egbudu Akan now in Aniocha South Local Government Area of Delta State. These towns and villages were manifestation of Ika identity, and they once enjoyed a full share of Ika culture, freedom and identity before they were cut off from their roots. In addition, was then the seat of administration of Agbor District, by which Ika was referred to at the time.

Agbor, being a very important focal town from time, the colonial rulers made it the Administrative Headquarters (1901- 1906) for Ishan, Kukuruku (Auchi), Agbor, Ogwashi-Uku, Asaba, Ukwuani, Issele-Uku, Ubulu-Uku, etc. In 1912, the District Native Court and Council Hall were built with two face-tower-clocks for the Chiefs from these areas to attend. In 1915, some important men were appointed as warrant chiefs from these areas to attend the Court and Council. In 1918, Agbor and Asaba Districts were joined under the name Asaba Division. The District Officer, (D.O) was stationed at Ogwashi-Uku, while an Assistant District Officer (A.D.O) was left in charge of Agbor District.

The people of Agbor waged wars against some of the villages before the coming of the Whiteman, and because of that ancient grudge, anarchy and chaos reared its ugly head in the social and constitutional organization of the kingdom. Consequently, homage and tribute discontinued. The role of the Okoeduale or governors of the villages among the members of the royal family gave way to mediocrity of the warrant chiefs appointed. The warrant chiefs themselves became so tyrannical, oppressive and cruel that common people were denied justice. Between 1902- 1934, these chiefs became so selfish and arrogant that Ika traditional history was distorted to suit their whims and caprices with resultant effect that clans fell into decadence. With over thirty years of Government backing behind them, these Chiefs wielded in their villages a power, which was practically autocratic. The influx of republican villagers from East of the Niger: Some Igbos who, driven by Aro Chukwu vandals, fled to Agbor District for protection. These renegades too, had firearms acquired from Europeans by whose influence they became arrogant and disloyal to Ika kings, which they displayed in Ika society, because they knew not what was meant by natural ruler.

the Agbor Patriotic Union formed on 1st May, 1926, at home and abroad resolved and approached the erstwhile government to withdraw the Igbos from the Native Courts for the sons of the soil, and the appeal was heard and Reorganization resulted in the Nineteen thirties. This was after the Arochukwu warriors was chased away in the 18th century but their influence kept growing deep because of their people who were still living in Ika land.

This birth the confusion that says Ika are Igbos Ikas are far from being Igbo because Ika as a tribe has it's own unique identity and language and tradition which many was copied by the invaders.
