^^^^@OP this is the much i came up with from a link.The maps do not capture alot of tribes that may even be larger numerically than others currently on your displayed map.Eg in Borno it is known that after the Kanuri in numbers is the Babur.Somehow that is replaced with Marghi in your map,That's not true.Also in my list it's possible certain tribes are now in new states not as in the above list anymore.If you observe certain tribes placed under plateau are now in a separate state(Nasarawa).There could be more.So its open for correction. I am from the Proud Babur tribe of Borno state!!!!!! The above tribal identity flows from a state of mind belonging to a madman. For example, it is silly to have Egbema in Rivers State as ethnic group while the same people of Egbema in Imo State are not ethnic group. One must remember that Nigerians who felt crude oil was the main reason they fought civil war hatched the idea of land decree which led to the 1976 boundary adjustment. With the silly draconian machination of boundary adjustment, most communities in Igbo land were ceded to neighboring states. 2 Likes |
