Idoma

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Idoma is an ethno-linguistic group in Nigeria. Their ancestors are from Igboland. Although formerly included as belonging to the Kwa languages group, Idoma is now generally regarded as being in the Akweya subgroup of the Idomoid languages of the Benue-Congo languages. The Akweya subgroup is closely related to the Yatye-Akpa sub-group.
