Who they are
The Kholok are a small ethnic community of the Chadic linguistic branch who live mainly in northeastern Nigeria, in the Benue River valley region. Also known as the Pia, they preserve their cultural identity through their mother tongue and farming. Although most profess the Islamic faith, there are also ties to ancestral customs and a Christian presence in the region.
