Benga people
Benga people are an African ethnic group, members of the Bantu peoples, who are indigenous to Equatorial Guinea and Gabon. Their indigenous language is Benga. They are referred to as Ndowe or Playeros, one of several peoples on the Río Muni coast.
Bengas inhabit a small coastal portion of the Cabo San Juan, suburban enclaves in the coastal municipalities of Mbini and Bata, and the islands of Corisco, Elobey Grande and Elobey Chico.
American actor Samuel L. Jackson is descended from the Benga people.
