NIGERIA TO THE WORLD: The Pride Of Taraba State

Imagine a place where ancient kingdoms, nomadic traditions, and vibrant artistry come together. Welcome to Taraba State, Nigeria. Today, let’s meet three of its major threads: the mighty Jukun, the resilient Mumuye, and the far-reaching Fulani. The Jukun: Keepers of Ancient Kingdoms The Jukun people are descendants of the Kwararafa kingdom, one of West Africa's most powerful empires from the 14th to 18th centuries. Their cultural capital is Wukari. They are known for fishing, farming and cloth dyeing. The Mumuye: Artists of the Hills The Mumuye are considered the second largest indigenous group, after the Tiv, of the Middle Benue. They speak the Mumuye language, which has several dialects. Often known for communal living and masquerades to strengthen community ties. The culture differs within Mumuye subgroups because of their isolation. The Mumuye have different ceremonies, one of which is the Ushavuko, which occurs twice a year. The Fulani: The Wandering Herders The Fulani are one of the largest and most widely spread ethnic groups in Africa. In Nigeria, the Fulani are found in almost every region, with large populations in the north. Cattle are more than a source of livelihood; they represent wealth, status, and survival. Fulani dressing is known for its elegance and simplicity. #news #nigeria #culture #nollywood #entertainment #business #celebrity #music #police #food
