Its towns are Abam and eleven further local communities as the parts of the group; Forde & Jones record nothing more about its internal divisions.
In the history of the section it is Obero, Olokoro and Isuorgu, and not Ubakala, that are named among the local groups keeping only the tradition of the Ibibio communities with which they merged.
