Ijaw diaspora
The Ijaw diaspora refers to the spread of people from the Ijaw ethnic group, originally from the Niger Delta region of Nigeria, living outside their traditional homeland. Due to factors like economic opportunities, education, or climate, many Ijaw individuals and communities have migrated to various countries and cities worldwide. This migration has created a global Ijaw presence, maintaining cultural ties while also adapting to new environments. The diaspora helps promote Ijaw culture, support development back home, and foster international connections, contributing to both local and global diversity.
