The Delta State Capital Territory spans Longitude 60.38’ East and 60.45’ East of the Greenwich Meridian and Latitude 60.06’ North and 60.19’ North of the Equator. Its area is estimated to be 363,175 square kilometers (see section 3(2) of the law establishing the Agency).
The above-defined land area covers parts of Oshimili South LGA (including the land area stretching from Issele Azagba junction through the Airport and the adjoining Communities up to River Niger, the Asaba Capital City to the newly established Dennis Osadebey University Town); parts of Oshimili North LGA (Okpanam, Ibusa, Ugbolu); and parts of Aniocha South LGA (including the land area stretching from Issele Azagba junction through Azagba Ogwashi-Uku up to Nsukwa junction near Obasanjo Farms on Ogwashi Uku/Ughelli express road).
The Asaba Capital City has since grown exponentially and expanded into the neighboring towns of Okpanam, Ugbolu, and Ibusa. The impact of expansion and urbanization on the Delta Asaba Capital Territory reverberates even to Isselle Uku, Igbodo, Umunede, and Ogwashi Uku. The Capital Territory is the second fastest-growing Capital territory in Nigeria after Abuja FCT, and this growth has come with its own problems.
