Plateau language spoken in Nigeria
Not to be confused with Jijili language or Jingpho language.
Jili (Lijili) is a Plateau language of Nigeria. It is one of several languages which go by the ambiguous name Koro.
Due to 19th-century slave raids, Jili speakers are scattered across different areas of central Nigeria.[3]
