Comprehensive List Of All The 371 Tribes And States In Nigeria Part I by vivaAfrica: 6:44pm On Jun 04, 2017
Nigeria is a diverse country made up of several ethnic groups, of which Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba are known as the majority. Within these ethnic groups there are several tribes numbering about 371. In this Article I will list this tribes in alphabetical order and in parts of 50 each part (which means we will have Parts 1-7)
However, the multi-tribal nature of Nigeria may put someone at a loss, especially when such tribes begin to display their unique culture, dialect, etc. this goes ahead to show the unity in diversity of the entity called Nigeria.
