Other comments: Waka is spoken by approximately 5,000 speakers in Adamawa state:

Fufore and Mayo Belwa LGAs, Nigeria. Waka has recorded traditional numerals from 1 to 10 years ago, not sure if they are still using traditional vigesimal system of numbers after ten or now use Hausa decimal numerals after ten. New data for numbers after ten with tone marks is required.
