Kanuri...
"Kanuri is spoken by about one million people in northeastern
Nigeria (mainly in Bornu Province) and in adjacent areas of
Chad and Niger.   The usage of the Yarwa area is considered the
‘standard’ form of the language, but Kanuri is spoken in several
dialects by numerous tribes who have adopted the language.
Kanuri-speaking tribes include the Dagara, Fadawu, Jetko,
Kagama, Karda, Kuburi, Kwayam, and Manga, and related
languages are spoken by the Kanembu, Tubu, and Tuda.
Kanuri is an Eastern Saharan tongue."
