However, only a few Nigerians can mention more than fifteen of these languages off the top of their head. Moreover, a great number of us have no idea about the existence of many others.

1. AWORI: Lagos State, Ogun State

2. BARUBA (Batonu): Kwara State, Niger State, Kogi State

3. DUNDUDUN (Dunka): Taraba State

4. FYAM (Fyem): Plateau State

7. MBEMBE: Cross River State, Enugu State

8. QUA: Cross River State

9. UDEKEAMA: Rivers State
