Untitled edit
I am from Delta State Nigeria and Igbo is not the predominant language. There are the Urhobos, Isokos, Ishekris, Ijaws and many other tribes. In fact, Delta state might be one of the most diverse states in Nigeria. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.59.141.59 (talk) Tanno ben— Preceding unsigned comment added by 196.36.234.62 (talk)

Oil in Delta State edit
So the lede notes that Delta State is primarily an oil producing region, yet makes no mention of it under "natural resources," ignores the international oil firms operating there and the numerous deadly conflicts that have arisen over the protests against oil drilling. This is akin to describing Hawaii while failing to mention that it is an island in the Pacific. Oil is everything in Delta State. This is quite the poor article, imo. 69.237.157.127 (talk) 02:28, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

- Thank you for noting the issue. :) On investigation it appears far more likely that they plagiarized from us. See comment field in the template now at the top of the article for more information. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 11:28, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

Okpe People edit
Okpe People often regarded as the Urhobo people, whose language is widely claimed to be one of many dialects of Urhobo, occupy Sapele and Okpe Local Government Areas of Delta State. The Okpe and Urhobo both migrated from the Benin Kingdom. The majority of Okpe people see themselves as ethnic groups that are different from those of Urhobo. They see themselves as different from the Urhobos. However, the Orodje of Okpe who is the king of the Okpe people has stated that the Okpe people are Urhobo people until any other official statement says otherwise.
