Ofagbe ("Ofa kugbe") is a town about 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) southeast of Ozoro, the headquarters of the Isoko North Local Government Area of Delta State, Nigeria.[1] Legend has it that the town was established by three families who migrated from various points in the then Benin Kingdom to settle and call the town "home."
