Nigeria Fun Facts: Obudu Cattle Ranch/mountain Area Belongs To The Tivs by DRANOEL(m): 6:12pm On Oct 19, 2016
Strange but true.

Obudu mountain area is inhabited by the Becheves and Utangas who are the indigenes of the area. For those of you who do not, Becheves and Utangas are actually Tiv people and are part of the Tivoid group which includes Becheve's from the Republic of Cameroon, Nassarawa, Benue, Cross River, and Taraba.

Another fun fact, the Tivs are amongst the few tribes in Nigeria that had the privilege of having it's people belong to both the Southern and Northern protectorate during the colonial era.

Just for information cheesy wink
