Until now and thanks to Agidigbi, I have always felt that OKORO was
an Urhobo name. One of my closest friends in Warri in those blessed days
always get angry when he is not called by his father's given name: OKORO.
I must add however that even his father was not quite sure what the name
meant at that time.
About reclaiming that name, I don't think we should even worry about
that. It is one of those things you leave behind in a successful war campaign.
Perhaps, we may let people know what the name actually stands for.
