This may not be correct: public sources say Wado City is a proposed name given to certain parts of Warri (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wado_City). This need clarifying.

Wado City is new name of the Urhobos in Warri City and their other neighbouring Urhobo town... People from Warri may not agree with this because it becomes a loss for them which they dont want it to happen. But it has already been achieved .
Wado City include the kingdoms of Warri South, Uvwie, Udu, Okpe, Agbarho and Ughievwen -

If that is the case, then a relation should be created to describe Warri City, in which Wado City and its sub-areas area describes. At the moment, there is no reference to Warri City at all.

Warri City as claimed to be owned by the Itsekiris , while other indigenous tribes remains tenants in their ancestral land is the issue while the Urhobos decided to disallow crises and violence to mind their own territory. Wado City has come to stay... All places on Google map has been changed to Wado City . I dont know while its opponent are fighting hard for their neighbours not to live in peace.

Thanks for the helpful background about the issue. Are there parts of Warri City that you think should not be renamed to Wado City?

Yes there is a massive location as Warri stand still... Warri generally is made up of 3 tribes. The 3 tribes are Urhobo, Itsekiri and Ijaw. And each has their territory. But overtime due to politics and other tribalistic reasoning the other tribes decided to claim ownership over the 2 other tribes. There was a time it becomes a war between Itsekiri and Ijaw in the year 1999 and 2001. Ryt now the Itsekiris still claiming ownership of Warri over the Urhobo and Ijaws. So the Urhobos come on with an agreed settlement and renamed all their territories out of Warri , which is now Wado City. Warri City is massive ... The itsekiri and Ijaw towns still remain Warri while the Urhobos towns remain Wado City. Almost every signpost in Wado City have changed their signboard from Warri to Wado City. In a summary the other Mega side still remain Warri City.
