Gbaran tribe
The Gbaran tribe of the Ijaw people lives along Taylor Creek ("Gbarantoru") in central Bayelsa State, Nigeria. Gbaran settlements include: Okotiama, Poloaku, Obinagha, Ogboloma, Nedugo, Agbia, Ibiaye (Ebiyai), and Koroama. Okotiama is the senior community. The close proximity of Gbaran villages along Taylor Creek has helped them maintain their shared cultural traditions. The clan god is Gbaran Ziba.〔Alagoa, Ebiegberi Joe (2005). ''A History of the Niger Delta'', Port Harcourt: Onyoma Research Publications. ISBN 978-37314-5-9〕
Gbarain is actually a clan occupying the villages mentioned above. The Gbarain people are part of the Izon (Ijaw) ethnic nationality. Gbarain was founded by a man called Gbarainowei, son of Oporoza the son of Izon. Gbarainowei's brothers are Kumbowei and Kabowei in Sagbama Local Government Area of Bayelsa State in Nigeria. The Gbarain people speak a dialect Izon. Their occupations, like other of Izon groups, include fishing, farming, canoe-carving and palm oil production.〔Tuaweri, J.O.
