Who they are

The Uzekwe are an ethnic group living in the Cross River State region of southeastern Nigeria. Deeply connected to the cultivation of the land and village traditions, they keep the Uzekwe language alive in family and community life. Although a large part of the community culturally identifies with Christianity, there is still a need for deeply rooted biblical discipleship.
