macof: Gambari isn't a Yoruba word though, it exists amongst the Fulani and Hausa people. It's even a common name in Mali. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YF1FgJa6Eo& 1 Like |

i think hausa have the largst population. Aside the fact that they have the largest landmass, i still think they are much more in population compare to Yoruba and Igbo. I'm open to counters. 1 Like |

dboardman: The Hausa/Fulani have highest population, Wen u split that, They move under IGBOS and YORUBAS. More people cant Live in the north than Evergreen south. A Desertificated area can never sustain Life like a Rain forest. 2 Likes |

Chiwude: @Bolded: That is the idea of this thread sir. They might not be Yorubas but they speak Yoruba lingual. This thread is not treating Tribes buh languages. You only served in Kwara. Well I was born in Kwara and I've spent over 20years there. I can authoritatively tell you 85-90% of Kwarans are Yoruba speaks. Thank You Quite an educative thread. |

Mrval20:which one is Hausa/fulani tribe again? You are either a fulani or an hausa man. Both are two very different tribes. Have you heard anybody say yoruba/igbo tribe before or igala/yoruba tribe? Please stop the misinformation. 5 Likes |

Quite an educative and informative thread. But i wud say yorubas,igbos,hausas,fulanis and others in that order are more in terms of population.we people frm d'south mst tyms distinguish hausa frm fulani,which is so, bt mst people in d'north combine dem togeda especially whr we hv significant no of both lyk katsina,taraba,sokoto,kebbi etc states. But d'language dts bn spoken most is hausa,yoruba and then igbo in dt order as well.they hv d'larger landmass,no doubt, bt few lives in doz lands compared to d'south, wt d'xceptn of kano though 1 Like |

Fulaman198: I think he was using the term as a way to deceive, using some what only hausa population as that for both ETHNICITIES. Hausas alone have 21% and Fulbe have a very sizeable 11%. 1 Like |
