Population data of 21 autosomal STR loci in the Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba people of Nigeria

Abstract: The three major ethnic groups of Nigerian population namely the Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba make up 29, 21 and 18% of the total population, respectively. To provide genetic information necessary for forensic analysis, this study was carried out to determine STR allele frequencies in 102 Hausa, 128 Igbo and 134 Yoruba individuals in Nigeria using 21 STR loci including the 20 CODIS (Combined DNA Index System) loci plus SE33.

“…Apart from the economic achievements, the country also boasts a rich ethnic and cultural diversity with several hundred ethnic groups and over 500 languages spoken. The Hausa are the biggest ethnic group making up approximately a quarter of the total population, while Yoruba and Igbo make up, respectively, about 21% and 18% of the population of Nigeria [20]. This nationwide survey was conducted on adult men and women residing in rural and urban areas of all six geopolitical zones of Nigeria.…”

“…The Yorùbá people occupy the six states of southwestern Nigeria, though they are also found in some parts of the north-central and southern re-gions of the country. Okolie (Okolie et al 2018) asserted that the Yorùbá people constituted about 18% of Nigeria's population. This population is now 201 million (United Nations Population Fund 2019).…”
