Tiv (Ethnic Group)
with an estimate of 4 million native speakers in their home state Benue, and at least two million more scattered around Nigeria nation and parts of Cameroon, the tiv ethno-linguistic group constitutes a substantial percentage of the Nigeria population.
The tiv ethnic nation boasts some of the Nigeria most interesting and colorful cultures. For centuries, tivs have entertained millions from and wide with their breathtaking kwagh-hir puppet and masquerade theater, sensual and sinuous swange dances, and numerous cultural festivals.
Oral history recounts that all tivs descended from either of two progenitors: chongo, or pusu. the exact period during which these ancestors lived is difficult to ascertain, but their influence on the identity of the tivs has never really been challenged.
