Nice attempt at history but some of your post are factually incorrect. The Annang people don't have a culture of fattening a lady b4 marriage, the Efiks do.
Also the masqurade shown and tagged Akwa cross isn't correct.
The Annang occupy ikot ekpene part of akwa ibom state.
There is nothing like efik/ibibio. Efik is the purest form of the language, though spoken by minority group; others are variant form of efik.

I stand corrected sir. All I said were products of my research.

21. Dufuna Canoe “Africa’s oldest known boat” (6,000 B.C.) discovered in 1987. This canoe was found in River Yobe in Northern Nigeria.

If we could do this more than 8,000 years ago how come we cannot build ANYTHING worthwhile today unlike our current oyinbo "superiors".
How did we LOSE it

Any thinking black person should be concerned about this rather than focused solely on eating, sex and celebrating at the slightest opportunity as basket mouth Donald Trump yabbed us recently! embarassed

Obi Okosi I on his instalation, 1913. The Roman Catholic caused drastic discontinuities in Onitsha Kingship tradition, and produced deep schisms in Onitsha community. Obi Okosi refused to perform most of the required Installation rituals (especially “Going to Udo” and receiving the “King’s Ofo), and his very crown for his initial Emergence was provided by the RCM, who moved physically into his new palace grounds. The crown he wore here does hold traditional bird feathers, but also features a prominent fleur-des-lis; he does appear to be holding the traditional horsetail switch of mourning, Otinri. At that time, a very large number of Ndi-Onicha refused to give the new Obi his customary tribute, ridiculing him as “the Book (educational) King” (Eze Akukwo) and “Foreigners’ King” (Eze Oyibo).

Ouch.

Hausa the largest Ethnic group? is it by land mass or population? because i think the Igbos are considering their population in and out of Nigeria.

Nice traditional pics
Not much has changed, many Nigerians wear western clothes and drive western cars and eat western foods but their mentality is exactly like those primitive people in the photos...

The first picture under '13' labeled as EFIK/IBIBIO is a picture of Oba Ovonranmwen and two women in exile in Calabar, I strongly believe.
