Iyiocha Lake

Iyiocha Lake is a tourist attraction in Amaokpala Town boarded by Oko, Ndiowu, Ndikelionwu, omogho and awgbu Towns. The far end of the lake is in Oko town where the Federal Polytechnic is located. This lake is mysterious. No aquatic life has been recorded in it and no case of drowning. Students of the Polytechnic were at one time, dumping refuse into the lake. But on the night of 3rd September, 2004, between midnight and 2.00am in the morning, there was a continual gushing sound and by morning, the locals discovered that the lake had completely drained out from its near end, an act believed to be a reaction of the water spirit over the dumping refuse into the lake. It
took several months for the waters to return and when it did, it was discovered that the lake had changed its course and mysteriously re-routed it through Amaokpala town.
