ETSAKO IN EDO STATE

Etsako is in Edo State, Nigeria.
The location of Edo State is on the map in the picture.
A more detailed map of Edo State is above, see Etsako on the map.
I would really have liked to post a detailed map of Etsako west, but I could not find it anywhere on the web and I can't really create a map since I am not a Geologist/Geographist.
So I'll just write what I know about the
 place from inquiring about it and from reading.
