Where Is Obibiezena

Obibiezena is an autonomous community in Owerri North Local Government Area (LGA) of Imo State, Nigeria. It is located approximately 13 kilometers (8 miles) from Owerri main town, making it a neighboring community to the state capital. The community comprises four villages: Amaeze, Emeke, Amaorie, and Ogbeke. Geographically, Obibiezena lies at a latitude of 5°24’10” N and a longitude of 7°2’35” E.

As of the 2006 census, Owerri North LGA had a population of 175,395. Estimates from 2022 suggest that the population has grown to approximately 245,100. However, specific population data for Obibiezena is not readily available. Given that Obibiezena is one of several communities within Owerri North LGA, its population would constitute a portion of the LGA’s total population.
