Amauju is an autonomous community of Imo State in Southeastern Nigeria. The town is part of Imo State's Isu Local Government Area, zoned to Orlu Senatorial Zone.

The people of Amauju are of the Nigerian Ibo ethnic group, and speak the Igbo language. The town was formerly part of Isunjaba autonomous community before Amauju attained the requirements that elevated it to the status of an autonomous community and people are just starting to know it as a competent town.
