Sapele Towns And Villages
Sapele is a Local Government Area in Delta State, Nigeria, built around the port town of the same name where the Ethiope and Jamieson rivers meet the Benin River. The Okpe people are the main indigenous group, though the town itself has drawn traders and workers from across Nigeria since its timber and rubber trade took off.
The 2006 census counted 174,273 residents. The 2022 projection puts the figure near 238,800. The LGA spans about 580 square kilometres and is split into eleven wards: eight Sapele-Urban wards plus Amuokpe, Elume and Okokporo-Ugborhen. Postcodes across the area begin 331. The council is chaired by Hon. Bright Abeke.
