Brass Towns And Villages

Brass is a Local Government Area on the Bayelsa State coast, headquartered at Twon-Brass on Brass Island. The 2006 census counted 184,127 people across 1,404 square kilometres; the 2022 projection put the figure near 274,100.

Brass holds ten wards: Brass I, Brass Ward II, Ewoama/Fantuo, Okpoama, Odioma/Diema, Cape Farmosa, Konsho, Os-Inibiri, Minibie and Sangana. Its coastline runs about 90 kilometres along the Bight of Bonny, and much of the LGA lies inside the Edumanom National Forest.

Nembe-Ijaw families fish, farm oil palm and cut timber along the creeks; most settlements sit on islands reachable only by boat. Brass borders Nembe LGA to the east and Southern Ijaw to the west.
