Thank you for the very educational information.

However, I wish to suggest if you could update the number of speakers of the Hausa language. It is today spoken by about 200 000 000.

Thank you

Dear Harouna,

Thank you for this information on the number of Hausa [hau] speakers.

Could you please give a source for this number (200 million)?

Thank you.
