Tiv language is a branch of Benue-Congo and ultimately of the Niger-Congo phylum.
Tiv kingdom Ancestry is traced to an ancient individual named Tiv, who had two sons; ( Ichongo an Ipusu ). Tiv people consider themselves as a member of either Ichongo (descendants of Chongo) or of Ipusu (descendants of son Pusu).
Ichongo and Ipusu are each divided into several major branches called ''ipaven''.
Tiv people depend on agricultural produce for commerce and livelihood.
Members of the Tiv kingdom are found in many places across the globe, including the United States and United Kingdom.
PS
The opinion regarding the list of TIV sons and daughters who have contributed prominently in the modern civilization and and well-being of TIV kingdom and Nigeria at large listed in this video, are purely for illustration.
As regards I recognize all great sons and daughters of TIV not listed.

Missionaries came just in 1907. This is an aspect I will still research more, people coming to structure you, and direct you on how to operate your traditional activities, meaning you don't know what you are doing, is them that know best how to direct you, God created every tribe with a culture. And we must go back to it before we are all destroyed and have no source of tradition and culture. Our rich culture that is called here by even the researcher is dying slowly and wiping away. Which is unacceptable

@sofiH.comedy Год назад

It's the coming of the Missionaries that's brought light to this nation, don't forget that in a hurry. Or do you wanna go back to Idol worshipping?

A colleague of mine from Nigeria saw my name and asked me if I am from Congo border. I said yes and asked him back how he came to know. He then told the history of the migration of TIV people from Congo through Cameroon where they dwelt in Manfe and finally established where they are now. It is because my name starts with NGUEM very popular in that tribe that he imagined that I may be from where they come from, meaning Congo. We also had that zebra clothing culture

Point of correction, we don't have indigenous Tiv Muslims

@abuminnatur-rahman4198 5 месяцев назад

There are tiv muslems but few. Please calm yourself ,Islam is a peace loving religion. Your Tribe are one of the finest and peace loving people in Northern Nigeria , despite that tivs are predominantly Christians it is hard to find them attacking innocent Muslims unlike Birom , Atyab and some ther northern minority tribes.

@proffnick2405 10 месяцев назад

I disagree with a particular statement here, the creator stated "the Europeans grouped the Tivs into clans, group and family heads etc." This is false. The constitution of the Tiv and the complex structure of family roots and clans is natural, peculiar and unique to Tiv and is particularly special and not created by Europeans.

@lmtopreviews565 8 месяцев назад

I hold a different perspective, The African Elephant interprets his statement as referring to the time before the arrival of Europeans, in line with the historical facts I've researched about Tiv history. I'd advise you to do more research.

Tiv idegine are not only found in benue state, you saying the language spoken in Other state is not clearly stated, I expected you to said, Tiv are idegine of Benue, Taraba, Nasarawa, plateau and Cameron. It's not condemnation but just for correction.
