}}Okwelle is a town in Onuimo Local Government Area of Imo State, Nigeria.[1] It comprises eight villages: Alaike, OJiama, Ojiowere, Umoko, Umuagwo, Umuduruebo, Umuduruodu and Umuoma.[1] Okwelle's Central Market (Ekego) attracts traders from neighbouring towns.[1]

Location and Boundaries

Okwelle is surrounded by major towns including Umunachi, Abba, Dikenafai, Okwe and Ezike.[1] Okwelle is blessed with several sources of fresh water, including springs, lakes, inland water channels and seasonal runoffs.[1] According to Floyd Barry, 'from Okwelle, to Imo River, a constriction of the Cuesta landforms takes places, but east again beyond the river, the uplands broaden to a dissected plateau around Bende separated by only a few miles from the Okigwe-Ngusu-Arochukwu Cuesta and related features.'[2]
