Sir, your very 1st statement is incorrect. The Tiv nation far exceeds the boundaries of present-day Benue State. Do not contribute to the misinformation circulating around. Thank you for this beautiful piece of work. Let's keep the flag flying.
Missionaries came just in 1907. This is an aspect I will still research more, people coming to structure you, and direct you on how to operate your traditional activities, meaning you don't know what you are doing, is them that know best how to direct you, God created every tribe with a culture. And we must go back to it before we are all destroyed and have no source of tradition and culture. Our rich culture that is called here by even the researcher is dying slowly and wiping away. Which is unacceptable
A colleague of mine from Nigeria saw my name and asked me if I am from Congo border. I said yes and asked him back how he came to know. He then told the history of the migration of TIV people from Congo through Cameroon where they dwelt in Manfe and finally established where they are now. It is because my name starts with NGUEM very popular in that tribe that he imagined that I may be from where they come from, meaning Congo. We also had that zebra clothing culture
The history of Tiv nation can't be complete without the mentioning of Assistance inspector general of police. Don Awunah,.....may his soul rest in peace 🙏.
Hello everyone , I am looking for people that speak both english and Tiv for a paid remote project. Let me know if you are interested. I can give you more information.

@@davidoryiman2398 Thank you for your comment bro, I am glad you find my content interesting. By the way! Your Father is a Great Man, I am happy for you.
I disagree with a particular statement here, the creator stated "the Europeans grouped the Tivs into clans, group and family heads etc." This is false. The constitution of the Tiv and the complex structure of family roots and clans is natural, peculiar and unique to Tiv and is particularly special and not created by Europeans.
I hold a different perspective, The African Elephant interprets his statement as referring to the time before the arrival of Europeans, in line with the historical facts I've researched about Tiv history. I'd advise you to do more research.
There are tiv muslems but few. Please calm yourself ,Islam is a peace loving religion. Your Tribe are one of the finest and peace loving people in Northern Nigeria , despite that tivs are predominantly Christians it is hard to find them attacking innocent Muslims unlike Birom , Atyab and some ther northern minority tribes.
Tiv idegine are not only found in benue state, you saying the language spoken in Other state is not clearly stated, I expected you to said, Tiv are idegine of Benue, Taraba, Nasarawa, plateau and Cameron. It's not condemnation but just for correction.
PS The opinion regarding the list of TIV sons and daughters who have contributed prominently in the modern civilization and and well-being of TIV kingdom and Nigeria at large listed in this video, are purely for illustration. As regards I recognize all great sons and daughters of TIV not listed.
Very Nice and informative. A wonderful work of research about us and our growth through the years. Looking forward to more!
Thank you 👏👏👏
You are right, I find African cultures very interesting. and this is one of such.

It's the coming of the Missionaries that's brought light to this nation, don't forget that in a hurry. Or do you wanna go back to Idol worshipping?

Point of correction, we don't have indigenous Tiv Muslims
There are tiv muslems but few. Please calm yourself ,Islam is a peace loving religion.
