Ubaghara

Ubaghara is an Upper Cross River language spoken by the Ubaghara people, an Efik subgroup in Biase local government area of Cross River State. The Ubaghara language is a mixed of Efik and Qua (Ejagham). However most speakers (especially in Biakpan) still speak the Efik language interchangeably.

Ubaghara clan includes Biakpan, Ikun, Ugbem, Etono central, Etono II, and Utuma, altogether been referred to as the Biakpan Eburutu.

The main village of Ubaghara is Biakpan or Biakpan Eburutu, which originates from the Obutong clan section, itself a key formation during the historic Efik people migration from Itu which spread across the lower cross river (oyono, oyomo) areas from Biase west to Odukpani, Calabar, Akpabuyo and Bakassi.
