Adadia

Adadia is a town with five villages in Uruan Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria.

The first soil on which Adadia (Itu Obio Amin) lived was Uruan Ekpe in Efut in Southern Cameroon.

Obong Ekene Iyitö led them and sailing up the Cross River, settled in the upland forest where Obio Oko (Creek Town) lives until this day.[when?]

The five villages who later joined them were: 1) Adiabo 2) Obutöñ 3) Atakpa 4) Nsiduñ 5) Ekpe Oku Atai (otherwise known as Mbarakom) When Obong Ekene Iyitö died, a silk cotton tree was planted to mark his grave.

Obong Iyitö Ekene's team met Efot Abua living at one part of the land leading to Idim Ete Niñ.

When Obong Amin Iyitö Ekene died, ten young warriors went head hunting for the burial rites as was the custom then.

One eventful evening, the captives decided to escape, they brought out some bottles of intoxicating drink, which they called "onwong otop eköt" and presented to theirs masters who happily accepted, and drank them.
