Igbochief001:This post is NOT about speculations or hearsay or fiction or daydream or emotional outbursts. This is about tangible proofs and facts. I didn't pull statistics or numbers and figures from the wind or my pocket. You can see the Wikipedia link for each tribe there. If you have proof to the contrary, then provide your evidence. Don't just be pulling out imaginary numbers from thin air. 1 Like |

Blankstare:No, they are not. I checked their figures when compiling this list. Nupe is estimated at about 4.5 million global population. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nupe_people |

Igbochief001:Still better than pulling statistics from the wind. And YES, Wikipedia qualifies as FACT, because if you check all those links, there are documented REFERENCES and SOURCES that prove the veracity of the information provided. Between Wikipedia and You who has more credibility on accuracy in the eyes of the world? Tell me did you conduct your census across the world to determine your own population estimates that you have been posting? I already told you that if you have contrary proof, then provide it, simple. No need for unnecessary arguments. This is a thread for learning. 2 Likes |

I already gave you the statistics for Kanuris and Tivs. Urhobos global population is estimated at 4.5 million people https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urhobo_people Gwaris = Gbagyi people.

Re: The 7 Most Populous Nigerian Tribes In The World by Openbusiness: 5:53am On Nov 01, 2020 |
Guys before I made this post, I searched through the popular tribes I know. Of course, I didn't search all the over 200 tribes in Nigeria, because I don't have time for that. But I searched on the major tribes I know in the North, Central, East, West and South of Nigeria. If you have a contrary statistics with PROOF, then provide it here, simple, and if it is found to be credible and accurate, I will adjust this list I have posted. But until THEN, this list is 100% FACTS! I did my research before making this thread. And for those that are allowing their ethic bias and sentiments and emotions cover their eyes and are not seeing clearly, just calm down and re-read the write up SLOWLY. You will see that this post has to do with GLOBAL POPULATION of the Tribes, not population in Nigeria only. |

The PURPOSE of this thread is for LEARNING. This thread is solely for educational purposes and we're meant to be having INTELLECTUAL DISCUSSIONS. So don't just come here and be making vague claims with invisible or undocumented statistics. If you want to make a contrary claim, THAT IS 100% FINE, if you have a different figure or statistics, that's allowed BUT don't just drop numbers and figures and statistics you pulled out from the wind or your imagination or pocket etc. If you know a tribe that has a population higher than these ones I listed and qualifies to be on this list, then please by all means, drop your evidence or proof; so that we can all review it to see how accurate it is. And if it qualifies and checks out fine, then it will be included. Until that happens, this list will remain as it is. So far so good, this list is 100% FACTS and accurate. |

kingsavage:Yoruba girls are more I prostitution that's why you see most of them acting useless porns .. that's why 90% of yoruba rich men will rather marry Igbo ladies than yoruba girls cause they are very useless and ugly.most of them have bleached their lives away trying to look fair and pretty like Igbo girls . I heard that when a yoruba man marries an Igbo girl, he will be well respected in yoruba land . Of recent, afonja girls have started taking their prostitution to the middle east especially their muslims where they are turned into Arab sex slaves and suck dirty arab sucks for a penny |
