| 释义 |
The Obong Okon Ita kingdom was an Ibibio nation with its seat of government in Obot Okon Ita. This kingdom was located between present day Abia and Akwa Ibom states in Southeastern Nigeria. Around 1630, an Igbo group from Abiriba known as the Eze Agwu arrived to Obong Okon Ita. This caused a long term conflict and stalemate known as the Aro-Ibibio Wars. The arrival of Nnachi Ipia and the support of a coup by the prince Kakpokpo Okon against his brother Akpan Okon the Obong (king) led to a protracted and unprecedented conflict in the region. However the arrival of Akpa forces led by the princes Osim and Akuma Nnubi, helped Kakpokpo Okon and Igbo forces defeat the Obong Okon Ita kingdom. Akpan Okon was killed and his surviving supporters were exiled. Kakpokpo Okon also died in combat and his family was incorporated to his maternal home the Eze Agwu community. The remaining Eze Agwu, Nnachi, and Akpa dynasties formed the Arochukwu Kingdom. The Obong Okon Ita kingdom was destroyed. External links
