“Pa'anci is a Chadic (Afro-Asiatic) language spoken by some 20,000 Nigerians living in an area south and west of Ningi in the present Bauchi State of Nigeria. The largest of the Pa'a villages is Tiffi, immediately southwest of Ningi, but the villages of Guda, Ari, Tabala and Rabina are predominantly inhabited by Pa'anci speak­ers, with others in Kwarangwacci, Kafin Zaki, Kalasu, Zakara, Wushi, Zida, Njaken, Kuoera, Kici, Bunga, Gada, and Ningi itself."
