300 Ethnic(tribes) In Nigeria.name Yours. by Adadio(op): 7:09am On Jul 25, 2016

In Nigeria,there are said to be about 300 different ethnic groups.The use of the term tribe is said to be derogatory,even demeaning,so let's stick to ethnicity.Now starting from Angas or Annang let us name our ethnic groups with pride and what makes you thick or how do other Nigerians view your tribe(oh that word again?).Let us show more love to our other countrymen and women please.

Yoruba is a nation. You must be from one of the many tribes that make it a nation.

Delta. The present governor of CBN and the present governor of Delta States are both Ika men. Jim Ovia, Nduka Obaigbena, Nduka Irabor and many other prominent Nigerians are from this great ethnic group.

You only saw one Igbo name which is Nduka, is Obaigbena an Igbo name? is Irabor an Igbo name? is Ovia an Igbo name? one Igbo name makes all the names become Igbo?
