Origin and formation of Mboho Mkparawa Ibibio
Mboho Mkparawa Ibibio, the foremost Ibibio socio-cultural organization worldwide was formed in Calabar on 1st August 1987 when the present Akwa Ibom State of Nigeria was a component of the old Cross River State. It is registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission under the Companies and Allied Matters Act of 1990.
The Mboho is an active, virile, and prolific socio-cultural organization of a forward looking, God-fearing, creative, dedicated, and self-scarifying Ibibio people that draws its inspiration from the 1928 declaration of the legendary Ibibio Union of old. As a pressure group, its mission is uniquely driven to engineer and build the Ibibio Nation and Akwa Ibom State and her people for the good of all, based on love, unity and strength..

Ibibio Language Project – Ibibio Language Virtual Learning Centre.
The MMI Manchester Chapter recognizes that building a good image is of special significance for the Ibibios of today and most importantly future generations. Drawing on research from a range of ethnic groups around the world, language contributes to the social and psychological processes involved in the formation of ethnic identity. Based on the deep understanding of the connotation and modern significance of harmonious and integrated culture, coupled with the risk of Ibibio language and nation being extinguished, Manchester Chapter proposed that urgent and practical steps should be taken to build and communicate Ibibio image nationally and even internationally.
