CultureRe: Detailed List Of Hausa Dialects And Places Spoken. by Zaikon(m): 11:35am On May 14, 2015
Nowenuse:
1) Katsinanci-
spoken by natives of Katsina town/emirate (western/central parts of Katsina state) into Central parts of Zamfara state.

2) Dauranci -
spoken by natives of Daura town/emirate (northeastern/eastern parts of Katsina state)

3) Gudduranci (Katagumci) -
spoken by natives of Northern Bauchi zone (Katagum, Jama'are, Misau emirates)

4) Kananci -
Kano state dialect, also native to south/western parts of Jigawa state.
It is the most widely understood and spoken hausa dialect which serves as a central dialect, generally accepted as the official hausa dialect and lingua franca of all hausa native speakers and some 2nd language hausa (non-native) speakers.

5) Zazzaganci -
spoken by natives of Zaria town/emirate (northern half of Kaduna state).
This is the 2nd most widely spoken of the hausa dialects (very similar to Kano central dialect). It is the most spoken 2nd language hausa dialect in Nigeria as most of the non-native hausa speakers from the middlebelt & parts of the north-east speak it as a lingua franca.

6) Gobiranci/Arewanci -
Spoken by natives of Gobir town/emirate (northern parts of Sokoto state) also along the boundary into Niger republic.
It is the most similar hausa dialect to the hausa dialects of Niger republic.

7) Sakkwatanci -
Central/major dialect of Sokoto. Spoken by natives of Sokoto town, much of central & Southern Sokoto, western parts of Zamfara state and hausa natives of Kebbi state (Kebbi north).
It is the hausa dialect with the largest population of native speakers as much of Kano & Zaria speakers are non-natives to the dialect/subgroup.

cool Hadejanci -
Spoken by natives of Hadejia town and much of Eastern Jigawa state

9) Bausanchi -
Spoken by hausas in Bauchi town (southern Bauchi) and most hausanized minority groups of Bauchi south area

10) Khurwayanci, Damagaranci &
Aderanci. -
Hausa dialects mostly spoken by hausa speakers in Niger republic in Tillaberi, Tahoua, Dosso, Maradi, Agadez and Zinder regions with some immigrant speakers in Nigeria and extreme northern boundary hausa towns in Nigeria that share some boundary with Niger republic.

11) Ganaanci -
Spoken by native & non native hausa speakers in Ghana, Togo, Mali e.t.c




It must be noted that Hausa language has over the centuries become a widely used trade language in northern Nigeria and parts of the Middlebelt region of Nigeria, Niger republic, northern Ghana e.t.c and by so have developed many 2nd language speakers.

In Nigeria, hausa 2nd language/non-native/trade language speakers are found in Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Plateau, Niger, Nasarawa, Taraba, Gombe, FCT, Southern half of Kaduna state, Southern 2/3 of Bauchi state and Southern 1/3 of Kebbi state.

The people of these places are not native hausa speakers and may be sometimes confused for native hausas by Southern Nigerians. However some of these northern minority groups are fastly loosing their own individual languages to hausas and this is strongly evident in Southern Bauchi areas, Northern Niger state e.t.c

The hausa dialect spoken by these millions of 2nd language hausa speakers is more of the Zaria dialect (Zazzaganci) & Kano dialect (Kananci).

Infact, the 2nd language hausa speakers in Nigeria (northern minorities) clearly outnumber the native hausa speakers.
This makes hausa the most spoken language in Nigeria.

CrimeRe: How The 4 Nigerians Condemned In Indonesia Will Be Killed by Zaikon(m): 5:10pm On Apr 28, 2015
sinizia:
Leave Islam out of this. This is not a religious law. Drug trafficking is frowned upon by almost all the countries on this earth. Some kill, some choose not to kill the offenders. Laws are laws. If you break the law, you pay for it. Simple. The drug peddlers knew the penalty for drug trafficking and still indulged in it. It's like knowing a lion is in a cage and you enter there with no weapons and expect to come out alive? Are sick upstairs?

If only this kind of death penalty existed for our corrupt leaders whose looting sprees led these men to engage in nefarious activities, Nigeria would've been ridden of evil and heartless leaders.

I think China have capital punishment (death penalty) for corrupt leaders that embezzle the funds of the country, are they an Islamic country too? huh These laws are meant to fight evil. If we had such laws in Nigeria, that bastard T.A Orji would've been killed by now. Laws are laws. If you can't respect them, don't enter the country.
2nded, bles u bro. For the reply.
