“There is some non-linguistic, ethnographic material on the Pa'a to be found in Gunn and Temple…Their population estimates are at some variance with my own, indicating a decline from Temple's 1915 estimate of 10,010 to the Native Authority Tribal Census (Bauchi Division) of 1949- 50, which showed a Pa'a population of merely 2,236, though Gunn later admits that census to be highly inaccurate, probably limited to tax-paying adult males.”
“Although there has been a Sudan Interior Mission (now ECWA, Evangelical Church of West Africa) Church in Tiffi for several decades, no evidence could be found of any attempt to translate the scriptures into Pa'anci; the church presently uses Hausa for all its services.”
“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."
