Motto: Unity, Culture and Progress

About FECA Houston
In 1999 two visionary ladies Iya Jennet Mamua Mbua and Iya Nadou Bodylawson attended a FAKO America national convention in Minnesota, USA. Impressed by the convention they decided to bring the vision to Houston, Texas and formed what was then called “Bakweri Elements Association” The first President of the group was our late Iya Martha Kebbi with Mola Henry Njie as her able Vice President. Since then the name has evolved to FECA – Houston. In summer each year, members of FECA Houston attend the national convention organized by FAKO America and hosted by the different chapters of FAKO America.
