Is Okigwe in Imo State or Abia state?

Is Okigwe in Imo State or Abia state? Okigwe is the third-largest city in Imo State, Nigeria, following Owerri and Orlu. It is located within the Okigwe Local Government Area (LGA) and holds a strategic position along the Port Harcourt-Enugu-Maiduguri rail line, which has contributed to its growth as a significant transit point. One of its key economic drivers is the proximity to Nigeria’s largest cattle market, situated in the Umu Nneochi area of neighboring Abia State. This has led to Okigwe becoming a central hub for cattle trading in the South-East and South regions of the country. #imostatenews #okigwe #southeastnewstoday #igbos
