Oron was in existence in the pre-colonial period in Nigeria and was formerly a part of the province called the South-Eastern state.
Natives of this area speak the dialect also known as Oron. Most Oron
people also speak and understand the Efik language fluently. The Oron
also have some dialectical similarities with the Ibibio and Annang
people, hence their communication in Ibibio and Annang languages is very
proficient.History has it that by 2370 BC Oron also known as {Oro Nation} had already been settled down in the present location known as Akwa Ibom State of Nigeria on the West Coast of African Sub Region, Akwa Ibom Gulf Line to Gulf of Guinea Atlantic Ocean South, after the Great flood (Noah`s deluge). The Community as at then and up until this moment is embedded with their dialect Language originated by them as far back as 2370 BC, not borrowed elsewhere or from the Bantus, Cameroun and/or Palestinian. The mass movements raided by Bantus the warriors, into many Communities did not mean that Oro people migrated from the Bantus, the Cameroun or Palestinians.
