Ika people
The Ika are an Igboid-speaking people of Delta State in southern Nigeria, living between Benin City and the Niger around Agbor and Owa. Their language and culture combine Igbo and Edo elements, and several of their kingdoms, including Agbor, had close ties to the Kingdom of Benin. The Ika North-East and Ika South local government areas are named after them.
