Who they are
The Baan are an indigenous community living in the Niger Delta region of southern Nigeria. Historically known for their connection to fertile lands and local waterways, they preserve their own language and strong communal bonds. Although the majority of the population identifies with the Christian faith, the primary challenge remains deepening discipleship and establishing consistent biblical roots in the daily life of the people.
