Abstract
The general scope of this study takes in the wider area of West Africa and is not confined to Nigeria or Calabar Province, where the Lutheran Church is concentrated. The scarcity of adequate and accurate documentary materials covering this particular area demands the broader and more general picture. The writer, wherever possible, has availed himself of the familiar materials pertaining to the situation of the Ibibios of South-Eastern Nigeria. While many references are specific to a certain given situation, it is held that they conform to the overall pattern found in West Africa.
