Ukwulu is a town in Dunukofia Local Government Area (LGA) of Anambra State, Nigeria.

[2] The first officially documented leader of the town was Okafor Ozoife, who rose to power in the late 1800s as a warrant chief under the British occupation forces.

He died in 1934 and the town was ruled by President Generals, who were elected by the people, up until 1977, when the Igwe (King) was nominated, Dr. Timothy C. Tagbo, Eze Ukwu I of Ukwulu.

[4] Memories of great actions of renowned Kings, family histories, and significant events in the kingdom were passed down to generations preceding centuries by word of mouth.

Back in the days, Ukwulu had nine villages, a foreign war came upon the town and reduced it to what it is today.
