River Ase , Igbuku is one of the lastIsoko towns sharing a common boundary with the UkwuaniKwale speaking areas ofDelta State, Nigeria . Igbuku shares a common boundary withOfagbe ,Ovrode ,Ibrede ,Aboh , andAshaka . The town is made up of descendants from Isoko and Kwale speaking founders who have so intertwined in intermarriages, that almost everyone from the town can trace to a mixed ancestry. Most early founders were from Ellu, Ovrode, and Aradhe hence most people trace their ancestry to Ellu, Ovrode, and Aradhe. There are also migrants fromEllu , Ofagbe, Ibrede, andAradhe . Isoko language is the main means of communication, but ukwuani names are common. Igbuku is one of the Isoko towns where theUmahun Masquerade is paraded inIsokoland .Igbuku Town is ruled by the Ozu, who is a recognized, gazetted traditional ruler in
