Hmmm

what of Tiv people in north central? the fourth largest ethnic group in Nigeria?

Is that the dominant location of the Fulanis? I didn't know they are so many in Nigeria

Who gave Fulani the second largest ethnicity in West Africa?..

Yoruba are more than Fulani, so how's Fulani the second largest?..

North west please not north Central

Fulanis are all over west Africa unlike yorubas that are in Nigeria,Benin and Togo

Tonyebacarnista have you treated the bloody nose you got from the South south thread?

I love how they put you to your place.

fulanis are fewer, Kanuri's are negligible. No mention of Gobirawa etc

Stop saying what you don't know, that Fulani are all over West Africa doesn't mean they're more..

What's their population in those countries?..

Apart from Guinea, Fulani is not the largest group in any country.. And even Guinea is just 14m.

Hope you know Nigeria population is larger than the rest West Africa countries combine?..

Ok,they are the third largest after HAUSAS and yorubas

This Fulani dolt with the usual gibberish. Always spewing gibberish. Fulani isn't indigenous to Nigeria. Something you need to sink into your brain if you've got any..

The fulanis may be ubiquitous in west africa, but they certainly do not constitute the 2nd largest ethnicity in the subregion. The hausas still outstrip the fulanis in west africa. The major tribes in Nigeria are the largest in west africa by population, though only only the hausa and yoruba tribes find indigeneship in other countries apart from Nigeria.

Assimilation in the north has made it a bit difficult to seperate the hausa d tribes from the fulani, but the fulani seem to dominate narratives more even though the 1st fulani president came in 19 yrs after independence.

According to wikipedia,the fulanis are about 38 mil in West Africa while I put the Igbos at 34 mil

If fulanis are not indigenous,then no tribe is indigenous to Nigeria as all of us migrated here

garfield1:

You are a novice. Yorubas are in Gambia and Sierra Leone known as Oku or Aku.

I believe the igbos are more in population than the fulanis in west Africa. The yorubas too. But I agree with you that the fulanis are no2 in the nw. Unless you are adding up fulanis in central and north africa.

Let us work with facts not beliefs please.i clearly know the countries in West Africa and outside

No Tiv, Jukun, Idoma, Igala, Nupe?

forgiveness:

Only a novice will insult someone rather than correcting them.

This is far from truth. Fulani is one of the most smallest tribe in the north.
All these tribes are bigger than Fulani:
Idoma
Tiv
Igala
Ebira
Kagoro
Igede
Babur
Angas, etc

forgiveness:

The oku were not naturally indigenous to the countries you mentioned. They are slave returnee descendants. The igbos had returnee slaves settled in sierra leone too. Their respective populations are now negligible.

Its like me claiming that some igbos are from equatorial guinea, whereas any igbo equatoguinean is a product of 20th century migration.

So, it's fula that's naturally indigenous to Nigeria and other countries, abi?

Mr man, Oku people have their own towns in Sierra Leone and Gambia.

Dsimmer:


In your delusional head.

Ode, name the local government which is in Fulani name or shut your unintelligent brain.

Asking this glaringly unintelligent question tells everything about you IQ level.

All are Hausa community. Or you've thought we've forgotten how the murderous criminal Uthman Dan fodio came to the Hausa land in 1808's?

garfield1:

Then you are as well wrong for putting the igbos at 34m when wikipedias figure is around 37m.

Even the fulani population is ambiguous from wikipedia.

Mr man, Oku people have their own towns in Sierra Leone and Gambia.

Whats the big deal about having streets, dont both the yorubas and nupes have streets in the east? Are they from the east?

Street or towns? Go and find a dictionary.

You unintelligently asked of a local govt' bearing Fulani name and now you're shamelessly shifting the post again. Why do you like roaming around confusedly like a headless chicken? Only a swaggering incompetent brainless baboon does that. Well, Uthman Danfodio's left bathroom slipper is far greater than all the of your tribe dead or alive and those that will be unluckily born in the future.
