slivertongue: Oga,fulanis are the most numerous ethnicities in gombe and adamawa from this explanation 1 Like |

garfield1: The issue with you is that you argue what you have little knowledge about. Adamawa is a non fulani state though they may have the top elites but the population are non fulani. Gombe State is same 5 Likes |

The Nupe ethnic group (also known as Tapas) should be recognized as a major ethnic group in Nigeria before mentioning Igbos.. Nupes are found in Niger State (a State thrice as large as the entire South East region combined) and Kwara (in Edu LGA). We need to do census to determine our indigenous populations and know who should be talking and those that should keep shut during national discourse. 5 Likes |

flokii: They said that Fulani's are less than 1.5m in Nigeria? Do you believe that? |
Re: Top 5 Ethnicities In The South East by flokii: 4:24pm On Apr 18 |
successmatters: Of course not.. Fulanis are in Adamawa, Katsina, Sokoto, Kebbi etc. and some settled in Kwara State. Fulani population should be well over 10-15 million in Nigeria. 3 Likes |

flokii: Are you counting Hausa too? |
Re: Top 5 Ethnicities In The South East by flokii: 4:34pm On Apr 18 |
successmatters: Fulanis inter-marry with Hausas a lot and their offspring use the term "Hausa-Fulani" to refer to themselves. Did you know former President Buhari's dad is Hausa and mom Fulani?.. I doubt. But most people see Buhari as Fulani man. |
Re: Top 5 Ethnicities In The South East by successmatters(m): 4:35pm On Apr 18 |
flokii: But Hausa is distinct from Fulani? |
Re: Top 5 Ethnicities In The South East by flokii: 4:36pm On Apr 18 |
successmatters: Very distinct.. but religion and culture makes the two blend excellently well. Hausas are the largest ethnic group in Nigeria followed by Yorubas. 4 Likes |

slivertongue: You talk carelessly and childishly about what you know little about.a simple search on Google will tell you that fulanis dominate those states.how will you have the top elites when you don't dominate that state? It is pure madness 1 Like |

garfield1: I asked you to generate information from the net but also warned that not all information is correct. Information you generate could be subjected to content analysis. You haven't lived in these states neither have you visited them. When last did a fulani person govern these States? Who are the governors & deputy governors of these States from 1990-2023? Fulani elites are top of the social order in the States they claim that is why most southern people think they dominate the North or the states they claim. They are largely a negligible population in most states. |

flokii: Yoruba is the largest ethnic group in Nigeria. it is the amalgamation of northern polities into Hausa-Fulani that is the largest ethnic stock in Nigeria. indigenous hausas are much but ain't much like Yorubas an igbos 5 Likes 1 Share |

garfield1: I don't know why you are trying to portray false information here. You're wrong. Fulani are not the largest group in Adamawa though they conquered the place and installed an emir just like Ilorin having an Emir but it doesn't negate the fact they are minorities in Kwara state just as they are minority in Adamawa state. 2 Likes |

yoruboid: Landmass means nothing in the grand scheme of things, child! What matters is your Human Resources and how you’re able to develop whatever natural resources you have. Oyo state is large, yet filled with mud houses and rusted buildings. Imo State still has a larger GDP than your big for nothing Oyo state. Meanwhile, there are also Igbos in Cross river, Benue, Akwa Ibom, Delta, Edo, Rivers etc. Igboland is far bigger than South East. Meanwhile, there are other tribes in the SW and the only oil bearing community in SW is owned by Ijaws in Ondo. 3 Likes |

slivertongue: Lol. The name Adamawa itself originated from Modibbo Adama, who was a Fulani. Agreed there are other tribes just like virtually every state but still the Fulanis are the majority. Fulfulde is the language of communication in most parts of the state. Even the Igbos doing business there learn and communicate with it. 3 Likes |
