Eket H3

Eket Hash House Harriers (Eket H3) was established on 7 September 1995, founded by Linda Ellison and Brian Harding. Its early history was closely connected with the international oil community around Mobil Producing Nigeria and the Qua Iboe Terminal in Eket.

Eket H3 became part of the wider international Hashing community and was documented in the World Hash Directory. For many years, Eket H3 carried the Hash tradition in Eket and became one of the longstanding kennels connected with Hashing in Akwa Ibom State. The kennel continues to appear in international Hash records, including the 2025 World Hash Events, where Eket H3 is still listed as a Nigerian kennel.

After years of inactivity and changes over time, Eket H3 was rebirthed on 31 January 2026, through the coming together of Akwa Ibom H3 and Uyo City H3 to revive the Eket kennel and continue its legacy.
At its rebirth, the Hash Master was entrusted to HM Bombo Doctor, while DHM Barman was given the responsibility of Religious Adviser, becoming RA Barman.
The rebirth therefore marked a new chapter for a kennel whose roots go back more than 30 years — reconnecting Eket H3 with its past while giving it a renewed place within the growing Hash community of Akwa Ibom State.
