Histories that mention Okpanam
These are published records whose own words name Okpanam. A mention is not a history of Okpanam, which is why they are listed here rather than with the histories about it. Records already listed above are not repeated.
Read as: Okpanam. Counted where the name is written with a capital, because a lower-case occurrence of a name that is also an ordinary word is the word.

Ibusa is a separate town and not a constituent of Okpanam.
Its origin is given as Uchi, also printed Umuabarrautchi, in Aboh district. Its towns are its constituents as the Okpanam village group together with the villages of Ugbolu, Ibusa and Achalea. Ibusa appears later as an entry of its own.
