Abstract
The history of Idumuje-Unor of Aniocha North comes in various forms of oral narration such as oral traditions, oral history and ethno history. For our purpose, we shall use the term oral narrations as an all embracing definition of their oral history. The Idumuje-Unor have various conflicting traditions of their origin and social relations. This paper examines the various traditions in relation to their social, economic and political organisation and argues that the organisation of Idumuje-Unor people is based on some intrinsic narrations that incorporates their history on clan basis as opposed to those oral traditions that point to particular locale as their primodal homeland. This research is of the view that the authentic history of the people perhaps might be obtained when close attention is placed on the narrations that validate the social set up of the people
