Boma tribe

The Boma tribe (Bumo) of the Ijaw people live in Bayelsa State, Nigeria. The thirteen Bumo settlements are: Diebu, Emette, Eniwari, Ekowe, Emette, Ikianbiri, Peremabiri, Kayankiri, Ologoama, Ofonibiri, Polobugo, Seibiri, and Igbematoru. There are no common cultural institutions within the Boma tribe, nor do they worship a common clan god. Their Boma identity derives from their tradition of common origin.[1]
