Welcome to Benin City

Welcome to Benin City

One of the most exciting things about Nigeria is its ethnic diversity. Nigeria is said to be the home of an estimated record breaking number of tribes and languages; about 520 or so different languages. To celebrate our diversity, Haba Naija is doing series of features and articles on specific tribes, cultures and people. In this feature, our focus is on the Edo people and their capital City, Benin City.

We call our feature on the Edo People Welcome to Benin City. The lead researcher and contributor to the feature is Benin City resident Bubemi Ekengbuda. Addition research and articles were contributed by Zina Kaja and Temitope Odurinde .
We would love to hear from Edo men and women out there who may want to correct us on things we may have got wrong about their tribe, we would also love to hear about things we got right! We also welcome additional contribution to enrich our feature. For now, I hope you will join me in celebrating the Edo people, their rich and valuable contribution to Nigeria today and in time gone bye.
