Did you know Ikot-Abasi's economy and culture are deeply connected to its rivers and creeks? This relationship with water influences everything from livelihood to leisure and spiritual practice.
This connection will likely flow into their festival presentation, offering movements and rhythms that mimic the currents and tell stories of fishermen, traders, and community life along the water.

They didn't just perform; they commanded the venue. The Ika people owned the Village Square with a display that was both precise and passionately free.

Did you know Ika, with its headquarters in Urua Inyang, has over 50 villages? The unity and coordination we saw yesterday are rooted in this strong community fabric.

If your phone charging connector is a USB Type-C, you need this information before you plug your cord to random charging outlets next time.

If anyone carrying a block that looks like a ‘power bank’ asks you to unlock your phone and help them confirm if their type C charger is working (they’d lie that it’s not charging their phone), please DONT DO IT.

The new scam in town is they use the tech device (that has the look of a power bank) to clone all your files (photos, videos, chats etc). Their aim is to basically clone your phone with the device, with future intent to use it to blackmail you or steal from you. However, the scam won’t work unless you unlock your phone. Unlocking gives the device the access they need to transfer your files.

Why am I sharing this information? We are currently handling a case like that with the police. A guy invited a lady he met online for a movie date, during the movie, he told the lady that his USB Type C cord is not charging his phone and asked if he could try the charger on her phone. The innocent, unsuspecting lady unlocked the phone for the guy, and continued with the movie. About 5min later, the guy passed the Lady’s phone back to her saying he forgot and they moved on. Few days after the date, the guy began blackmailing the lady with private files from her phone that even her couldn’t remember she still had them.

Henceforth, before you connect your USB Type C to a ‘power bank’ or ‘charging outlets’ without your adapter (charging brick) please ensure you set your phone to not charge unless unlocked. Or better still, get your own powerbank.

A fact for you: Ika shares borders with other historically rich areas, which has created a beautifully blended yet distinct cultural identity. Today at Christmas Unplugged, you can experience that identity firsthand through dance, music, and storytelling. The gates open at 11 AM. Will you be there?
