The Hausa are a Chadic ethnic group based primarily in the Sahel and sparse savanna areas of Niger and Nigeria.
Hausa belongs to the West Chadic languages subgroup of the Chadic languages group, which in turn is part of the Afroasiatic language family.
The Hausa cultural practices stand unique in Nigeria and have withstood the test of time due to strong traditions, cultural pride as well as an efficient precolonial native system of government.
