Igbuzo has 3 traditional War-Houses; Otu-Odogwu, Otu-Iyase and Otu-Uwolo with each headed by a War-Lord; Odogwu, Iyase and Uwolo respectively.

Yesterday, Monday 23 October 2023 will go down in the annals of Igbuzo history as the Delta State Government officially gazetted Chief Amaechi Nwaenia as “Uwolo Igbuzo” with a Certificate presented to him by the Executive Chairman of Oshimili North LGA, Hon. Innocent Esewezie, Ugo-Nwa Igbuzo, on behalf of the State Government.

The Certificate Presentation Ceremony which took place at the Oshimili North LGA Liaison Office, Igbuzor had in attendance some chiefs from the Obuzor-in-Council; Ikwele Igbuzo, Chief Celestine Okafor; and the ICDU President General Worldwide, Onowu Victor Uchunor.

This recognition authenticates Chief Amaechi Nwaenia as “The Uwolo Igbuzo” and criminalizes anyone who impersonates or parades himself as occupant of the Uwolo Igbuzo.
