8000bc ke? and yet there are less than 2 million efiks... despite there acclaimed BEDMATICS skills . it should be like 800AD not 8000BC
Available evidence indicates that the original
homeland of Ibibio is at Usak Edet (Isangele) in the Cameroon. According to Ford and Jones, the Ibibio settlement of Isangele now forms a small tribe in the Kumba Division of Cameroon. Upon leaving the Cameroon territory, the Ibibio arrived at their present location following two major directions.Probably about 8000 BC one group reached Nigeria by an overland route and settled at Ibom (Arochuku) there they erected the famous shrine now known as the Long Juju of Arochuku. From Ibom some of the Ibibio people spread to Abak, Uyo, Ikot Ekpene, and other areas of what is known as the mainland of Cross River State.

Not even the Pdp candidate will admit this rubbish, the lady was voted into the senate before and has state spread already, contrarily the Pdp stooge and his masters are not brave enough to let him face other contenders in the primaries because he will be beaten handsdown, that's why they resorted to 419 and declare him their flagbearer from wadata plaza Abuja.

Ever wonder why inec ordered re-run in some LGs and PUs? Because the cowards sense losing and go gaga beating and harassing anyone, snatching boxes, thumbprinting and threatening officials. One cannot claim victory after all these vices, they rigged her out and think that's the end, they will realise how foolish they were soon.

Have you ever visited Cross River State in Nigeria? If not, you should do so soon because the state is filled with diverse ethnic groups, beautiful places and amazing people. Today, we’ll be taking a trip down memory lane to understand one of the ethnic groups in this beautiful state, the Efiks. The Efiks are one of Nigeria’s most prevalent and interesting ethnic groups. The people predominantly occupy the south of Cross River State and speak Efik. But before they became the Efiks we know today, they had an origin, traditions and lifestyle – some extinguished but some maintained. Below are some historical facts about them:


ORIGIN: The Efiks are believed to be originally from Uduak Eset (Isangele) in Cameroon before they migrated to Nigeria as far back as 8,000 BC.


ECONOMY: Although their economy was originally based on fishing, they quickly developed into a major trading region, trading slaves and agricultural products like palm oil, cassava, yam etc. in exchange for European manufactured goods in the 17th to 19th
century.


LANGUAGE: Efik was one of the earliest Nigerian languages,with the original orthography devised in 1812, by King Eyo Nsa Honesty. In 1860, it was one of the first three Nigerian languages to be codified with its own orthography and grammar. In 1862, Efik language was the first Nigerian language used in translating the Holy Bible (New Testament) and in 1868, the translations of Old Testament was completed.


EDUCATION: The Efik and indeed the people of the Old Calabar Kingdom were the first to embrace western education in Nigeria, with the establishment of Hope Waddel Training Institute, Calabar in 1895 and the Methodist Boys High School, Oron in 1905.


TRADITION: The Efik had interesting traditions with one of them being the Fattening Room practice. Here, virgins were overfed, massaged and made to sleep for long periods to become the perfect, robust bride. A modified version is still practiced today. Men also belonged to the secret society, Ekpe which was named after a forest spirit. Members were the guardians of the peace and the messengers of the ancestors. Their activities included making laws and punishing offenders. The teachings of Calabar’s first Missionary School thankfully brought an end to the group’s additional activity of human sacrifice. Another tradition that was fortunately brought to an end was the belief that twins were a disgrace to Abasi (God). It was thought to be evil for a woman to give birth to twins, the twins were taken and left for dead in the forest.
