Adio people

The Adio (also called Iddio or Makaraka) are an ethnic group indigenous to Central Africa, closely related to the powerful Azande or NiamNiam, occupying the Bahr-el-Ghazal west of Lado.

They came originally from the country of the Kibas, north of the Welle River.

[1] Currently, they form part of the population of the South Sudanese state of Central Equatoria.

The Adio speak Kakwa and Mundu.
