HISTORY Ogbidi Okojie, Onojie (king) of Uromi (1857 – February 3, 1944), was a ruler of the Esan people in what is now part of Edo State in Nigeria, still remembered for his opposition to British rule.

ESAN COMMUNITY DIGEST......... ESAN LAND: THE DESTINATION FOR PALM TREES PRODUCTION BY EBOSELE GODWIN EHINOMHEN Introduction Esan land is a tropical rain forest that is suitable for the cultivation of palm trees. There is a lot of palm plantation that was planted by our parents that are underutilized by the local farmers in Esan land. Because the local farmers are not trained on how to add value to the high valued palm kernel fruits. They take out the palm oil and dispose of the palm kernels. Opportunities We want to use this medium to call on the investors to come to Esan land and invest in the processing and adding values to palm kernels.  There is a high-profit margin in adding value to palm kernel. We are interested in investors who are willing to explore the production of palm trees.
