Etche, Local government area in Rivers State, Nigeria.
The administrative headquarters of Etche Local Government Area is situated in Okehi, encompassing 32 communities spread across 5 distinct clans in Rivers State.
The establishment of Etche Local Government Area resulted from the division of the former Ikwerre/Etche administrative region, creating a separate governance structure.
Communities in Etche speak the Etche dialect of Igbo language and maintain agricultural traditions through cultivation of cassava, plantain, banana, and yam.

The region contains over 250 active oil wells, which began operations in 1958, transforming the economic landscape of this agricultural territory.
