Okpara Inland is a community located in the Ethiope East local government area of Delta State Nigeria.
When Agbon people finally got to Isiokolo, they made contact with Benin to make an earth fetish for them.
Moreover, the common traditions of origins and migrations shared by Okpara people is fundamental in explaining their relations in the pre-colonial era.
According to one of the accounts, a man called Ukonorhoro, who migrated from Udo in Benin, gave birth to Agbon.
Agbon migrated through Kwale, probably from Erhowa, settled at Ehwen and Erhivwi or Irri in present Isoko division of Delta State.
From there he moved down to Utokori, close to Ughwerun; then to Olomu and through the present Ughelli territory of Ekuigbo to found Otorho r' Agbon now known as Isiokolo.
The Okpara people further migrated from Agbon to their present position due to local instinct and avoidance of competition.
Erhi, in turn, gave birth to Osia, Isaba Uvwiaghoa, Onoriaro and Okei among others.
As the population grew, both due to the birth of new immigrants like Esume, the people of Okpara began to spread out.
Some Okpara people also moved away to found new settlements like Ovu, Okpara water-side, Okurekpo, Otumara Ogba village, Obi village, Adarode, Okurofo, Aghwariore, Ugbegbe, Ugbuwherhe, Okarunoh, Onude, Agborhoro among others.
Today Okpara is a thriving sub-clan in Agbon Kingdom with numerous villages and streets.
The topography of Okpara Inland allows for the cultivation of such crops as yams, cassava, Okra, pepper, maize, melon, red-beans (locally called Isha) among others.
Although with time, cowries came to be adopted as the medium of exchange before the advent of the present legal tender of naira.
The people of this community are known for their very entertaining festivals which display a wide array of attires, dances, drama, etc.
