I know that the Igbos and Ibibio people do something similar. I'm trying to write something on Nigerian Masqurade culture but I don't have any examples of Yoruba and Hausa variations? (or any other ethnic groups).

Only Eyo, which is an extortionist spirit of Oduduwa descent.

Just like Buhari, the Eyo masquerade is corrupt although it is yet to steal up to $26bn.

Yes! I served in Ilasa Ekiti and they've got masquerade but not as much and refined as that in most Igbo communities.

Yoruba do have Masqurades very similar to Nupe Masquredes, but hausa don't practice it.
