Abiriba is a unique kingdom with a rich culture and history. It is one of the oldest monarchies in the south-eastern part of Nigeria, Africa. The kingdom of Abiriba is made up of three communities namely Ameke, Amaogudu and Agborji. It operates on a tripodal system where the Eze of each of the three communities come together to form the Enachioken-in-council with the Eze Ameke as Enachioken on the basis of first among equals.

The village is located in Abia State, south-eastern Nigeria. It contains two stadia, a general hospital, library, churches, courts, and almost everything that constitutes a country.

The Abiriba people are industrious and known for pre-historical black smiting and sculpture artifacts but the people have transitioned to trading and industrialization. Since the people were predominantly merchants, they are widely travelled within and outside Nigeria, and are correspondingly cosmopolitan.

Abiriba is origin to Nigerian celebrities like Uche Jombo Rodriguez (Nollywood Superstar), Bourdex Telecom (The first Telecom operator in Nigeria before MTN or GLO), Late Dike Udensi (DUBIC beer, DUBIC malt etc.), Joseph Ikwan Ejim fondly called Jay Ikwan (Recording & Performing Artiste, Entrepreneur & Christian Minister), Ebitu Ukiwe (The Vice president and former governor of Lagos).
