I use to think Nigeria is the number
Re: Number Of Language By Country by mrvitalis(m): 12:43pm On Jun 25, 2023
Let's be realistic Nigeria doesn't have more than 100 language

In fact the whole Nigeria can be roughly grouped into 10 regions like Wilinks did in 1958

Most are just dialect of the a language

Ignorance is bliss...



I know you are Igbo and one of those that keep claiming other tribes as Igbo. So I'm not surprised at your assertion.

Not all akoko, maybe you mean the uhame or so speakers...

Majority of Akoko (80%) people speak a dialect of Yoruba language.

Ipob and Ipob sympathizers always refer to it, because it's a write up that they believe supports their claim. Funny thing is they'll only pick the part that suits them and leave the other parts.

Let me simplify it the British created Nigeria the way it is for easy administration, but when they wanted to give us independent they called everyone together, to determine what they wanted, what they didn't like of the then present structure... What they wanted

Willinks was the head of job... They determined that for Nigeria to be stable it must have 10 regions

10 regions each semi independents

But Bello, Zik and awolowo wanted more power refused to create the 10 regions... Maintained the 3 regions... Zik and Bello ganged up to create mid West

Awolowo tried to create middle belt and cross river n rivers region but failed

People like me still believe if Nigeria must survive as a nation we must visit willinks report

Create the 10 regions then each regions have provinces along tribal lines... Everyone grow at their pace...

You google it

I for one believe Nigeria has more languages than the figure reported. Kaduna state alone has more than 300 languages.

In Sanga local government alone I know if the Numama, Ninzom and about two other languages I cant remember now. Each does not
hear what the others speak unless they use Hausa language, so is applicable to other local Government councils.

Edo, Benue, kogi, Nassarawa, Taraba.
plateau states are examples.
