Edikang Ikong

This famous and exquisitely delicious vegetable soup is known to have originated among the Efik people. It is considered to be a very nutritious soup and is a delicacy among Nigerians.

The Fattening Room

This is an interesting cultural practice for virgins and brides-to-be. It is popular among the Efik people and involves an all-round training and beauty therapy carried out at a period of time to prepare the lady for marriage and womanhood. A modified version is still practised among the Efik people today.

Their Traditional Attire
