This impressive figure was created by Eket masters, an Ibibio sub-group centered around the town of Eket in the delta region of the Kwa river. It represents a mythological earth mother called Ala. At least three individual Eket artists or workshops are mostly known from the Ogbom performance calling attention to Ala and her role in human and agricultural fertility.

Kú-ḿ-fínà ḿíèn is an Ibibio phrase that translates to “Stop bothering me”.
