Akogba hill

The Akogba Hill, or Oke Akogba is located in Ekinrin-Adde in Kogi State of Northcentral Nigeria.[1]

Akogba Hill Hiking

The Akogba hill, also known as Oke Akogba or Or'Oke Akogba, is one of the natural endowments of Ekinrin-Adde. It is a giant Monolith sitting in a pristine state in the north-west of the Ekinrin-Adde community overlooking the town as well as being the source of the mysterious Akogba Spring. Although it is not the only mountain surrounding this beautiful community, it is arguably the most prominent at an altitude of about 3500 feet (1050m above sea level). This ingenious and glorious intrusion of Ekinrin-Adde community's landscape is among a chain of other mountains to the north of Ekinrin-Adde among which are Oroke Kere, Oroke Asi Oroke Kongo and Oroke Ewuta.[2][3][4][5]

Geology

View from Akogba Hill

It is a massive out crop of granite rocks of primitive formation that contains caves which offered protection to the people in the days of intertribal wars. It is from this mountain that Akogba spring took it source. Hence, to the Ekinrin-Adde, the Akogba mountain stands not only as one of the physical geographical phenomenon that dotted the landscape, but also as a monument of faith in unity, strength and unfailing protection and sustenance from the supreme being.[1]
