#E32 (Efik to egg and dart)


Listen Later

I read from Efik to egg and dart.

 

 

There are almost 750,000 Efik people in the world.

Not much is known about where "egad" came from other than "I God" which is a "softened oath".

Now I want to walk around the city and just say "Look at the egg-and-dart!" (AKA: egg-and-tongue, egg-and-anchor, egg-and-star)

The word of the episode is "egalité".
