What Is The Estimated Population Of The Three Major Ethnicities In Nigeria? by Dansuqi: 12:03pm On Apr 12, 2020 |
This is my own guestimates.it is not perfect and has flaws but cant be far off.i am estimating them based on the 2006 population and then ill later calculate based on the 2.6 yearly growth rate. [b]HAUSAS[/b]: kano 8 million,kaduna 2.5 million,katsina 4 million,kebbi 2 million,sokoto 2.5 million,jigawa 3 million,zamfara 2.5 million,bauchi 1 million,niger 800,000,gombe 200k,other parts of the north where they are not indigenous 4 million,lagos and southwest 3 million,ss and se 1 million. Total population as of 2006 34million.using the 2.6% annual growth rate will give us about 11 million or more.am not a good mathematician so pardon me. Total population presently 45 million. [b]YORUBA; of 2006,lagos population was officially recorded as 9 million so ill use that but I'll put it at 10 million) 4.5 million,ogun 3.5 million,osun 3.2,ondo 2.8,oyo 5 million,ekiti 2 million,kwara 1.5 million,kogi 700k,edo 200k Yorubas settlers in ss and se 2 million,yorubas in the north 7 million. Total population in 2006:32.4 million Total population presently; 42 million IGBOS:anambra 4 million,imo 4 million,enugu 3 million,abia 3 million,ebonyi 2 million,delta 1.2 million,rivers 1.5 million,igbos in south west 4 million,other parts of ss 1 million,north 7 million Total population 2006:30 million Total population now;38 million That is just my own person calculation,feel free to add yours.again if we go by birth rate,it will tally along with my calculation.

Current political allies and benefactors won't allow accurate census figures to prevail. However, those who created Nigeria and the superpowers knows our correct figures and the standing of each group. But unfortunately, they are now being influenced by the group in power at a given time. For instance, Igbo was above the Yoruba in numbers for two years at the CIA factbook but have since the last one month or so dropped below the Yoruba with 0.3%, standing at 15.2 while the Yoruba got promoted to 15.5%. Then, surprisingly, Fulani, one of the tinniest groups in Nigeria is now the number FOUR biggest population in Nigeria displacing Efik/Ibibio, Tiv, Ijaw, Edo and other numerically visible groups. These are what the CIA is telling the goats they assume we are. The country remains the big joke it's always been. 2 Likes |

AyakaDunukofia:The most populous between igbos and yorubas is controversial,debatable and arguable but that of the fulanis is clear.they are the 4th largest ethnicity right from time and are in more states than any other ethnicity.the efik and ibibios are not one tribe but two different tribes who occupy 2 different states.the kanuris are more populous than the tivs.lets do a rough estimate of the fulanis.1.5 million in gombe,500k in taraba,600k in adamawa,1 million in katsina,300k im yobe,500k in jigawa,1 million in kano,500k in kebbi,200k in kwara,500k in sokoto,500k in bauchi.akwa ibom state is 4 million and ibibios cant be more than 2.5 million.efiks are not up to 500k in cross river.benue has 4 million people,they cant be more tgan 500k tivs in taraba |
