NEW STORY EMEKA AND THE WARRIOR PRINCESS ADAOBI painting cedit - kendy joseph ( chevelin illustration ) story written by chibuike francis duru.

Once up a time in UMUAHIA, a small village in eastern NIGERIA, there lived a warrior princess ADAOBI by name, she had a pet named DIKE.

ADAOBI was a very beautiful princess who loved playing games,she would always go hunting with her dog dike and each day they always come home with a kill.

umuahia and the neighboring village had a unique lifestyle and dress style. a typical umuahite would have series of tribal marks and paintings drawn on their body for identification and to easily distinguish them from indegenes/citizens of the next community.
their men and women always had their chest exposed, although covered with some paintings. this culture has been passed down from generation to generation as the gods of their ancestors had instructed.
