LCSH: nl; AE: nl; E: nl; I: Sudanese of Nigerian origin: Nearly 60 percent of people of West African origin in Sudan were said to be of Nigerian origin (locally called Borno after the Nigerian emirate that was their homeland). Given Hausa dominance in northern Nigeria and the widespread use of their language there and elsewhere, some non-Hausa might also be called Hausa and describe themselves as such. But the Hausa themselves, particularly those long in Sudan, preferred to be called Takari (http://www.1uptravel.com/country-guide-study/suda n/sudan49.html)
