Plateau language spoken in Nigeria
Not to be confused with Buu language.
Bu-Ninkada (Ibut, Abu, Jida) is a Plateau language of Nigeria. The two dialects, Bu and Ninkada, are ethnically distinct.
Bu is spoken by about 4,000 people in the four villages of Nakere, Rago, Maiganga, and Abu. It is closely related to but separate from Ningkada (Jidda).
Ningkada is spoken by about 2,000 people in the two small hamlets of Ningkada (Jidda) and Lago.[2]
