Without Igala that list is fake bro.

Efik is more widely spoken in Akwa-Ibom/Cross River than Ibibio.

The list is embarrassing to say the least- the article says there are only 1.9 Million Fulfulde speakers in all of Nigeria.... lol
Second the area it claims Fulfulde are most spoken are actually not the areas where it is most spoken.....

.

A lot of ethnic Fulani can't actually speak their language. Most speak Hausa. Fulfulde is becoming an exotic language. Many who gave up nomadic lifestyle and settled within Hausa communities now have their kids speaking Hausa, also due to intermarrying with Hausa.

I noticed how the writer did not fail to mention that some parts of rivers state speak igbo but failed to mention that ijaw is spoken in Rivers state

hey! Abeg no change am. Leave ibibio where it is...lol

adeitoro:
Igbo language is on the verge of extinction.
With the rate younger Igbo generations drop the langauge I doubt if Igbo will survive next 100yrs.
Was on a wedding ceremony of my colleague who is Igbo, I was ashamed of how the parents were happy and amazed that the guy can express himself with shaky Igbo.
Also I paid a visit to my uncle, on greeting his kids in Igbo, my uncle was like I should use English, you know they don't understand Igbo.

In as much as i hate this but its the truth.I think its the based on the mentality of the people.People born their kids&you see them talking to them in English.i hate it.had a neigbour whose last child who is same age mate with my sis,grew up with her but was struggling with igbo.she started learning it due to the mocking she was receiving.
Another is schools(in West&east) who impose strict rules based on the language spoken thereby given in to western slavery

Third (I might be an outsider on this one)- but it is obvious to anyone in this country that Yoruba has more speakers than Igbo and not the other way round--- you can call me out, if you think I am wrong.

U re right bro...in fact more Igbos re speaking Yoruba than u can even imagine.

Just because Jonathan is from Ijaw doesn't mean Ijaw is now a majority tribe. Don't mind all these I -too-sabi people.

Ijaw is not even a language sef.

of course and I guess u are efik

I stopped reading it when I saw 19 million figures fr yoruba. I closed the thread when I couldn't find proper index, they are just mere imagination

nagoma:


You may be right about the number but definitely both of you are wrong about the states Fulaman.

Umm no, I'm not wrong about the states, Fulfulde is most spoken in Adamawa (which extends into Cameroon as well), Gombe and Taraba states. It is not spoken at all nearly much in the NorthWest. Adamawaare is the dialect of the Fulani spoken where I am from.

When you see responses on articles like this you realise why tribal Sentiments has killed us as a country, see every man fighting to promote his or her tribe on the list.... And until we get pass this stage, one Nigeria is just a scam



Between why is Urhobo not on that list?

the article doesn't make sense.
@ op. do you think the world revolves round you?
its obvious you haven't been to most part of Nigeria.
if not what is ijaw & Ibibio doing up there
Igbo speakers more than Yoruba's.?
wrong info.

Nwanne a bu m nwa afo ala Igbo. Iwotago?

It has nothing to do with Tribalism, it's about spreading the correct information....To say that there are less than 2 million Fulfulde (Fulani) speakers in Nigeria is the best joke I have seen my entire lifetime.
