But for those of you who haven’t really heard about it, or have heard it but don’t know what it is, let’s quickly use this medium to acquaint you with what Igede Agba entails.

Igede Agba was started in 1957 by great Igede elites, and it’s a day set aside to celebrate the Igede people of Benue State Nigeria. Igede is a name of the son of Agba and Agba is a son of Eran Ekpen from Ora kingdom in Edo State Nigeria. The tribe migrated from Ora kingdom to the present Igede land due to an unresolvable conflict that degenerated to war between them and the Ora people.
