Oguta, Local government area in Imo State, Nigeria.
Oguta extends along the eastern bank of Oguta Lake, the largest natural lake in Imo State, divided into two distinct townships named Oguta 1 and 2.
During the Biafran War from 1967 to 1970, Oguta Lake served as a strategic marine base for military operations in the region.
The local population maintains strong connections with Oguta Lake through their belief in Uhamiri, a water deity central to traditional practices.
Travelers reach Oguta through road networks connecting to major cities in Imo State, with multiple accommodation options near the lake for extended stays.
The area demonstrates high rates of urinary schistosomiasis, particularly affecting farmers and students, with varying intensity across different age groups.
