"There are no census data or any means of counting the number of Tiba speakers, but a local speculative guess puts the figure at less than ten thousand."

KOMMENTARE ZUM SPRACHKONTEXT
"When Islam was less widespread, they [the Tiba] traditionally gave themselves CD [Chamba Daka] names, and are certainly all fully bilingual in this language. They are also said to have adopted Chamba customs, but this has not been verified in any way."
ORTSBESCHREIBUNG
"The Tiba area can be reached at present by leaving the main Gombe-to-Yola road in the direction of Mayo Belwa, then continuing on through Jada towards Ganye via the longer route passing by Mbulo. The traveler will then turn westward at Mbulo towards Tola. Some twenty kilometers beyond the town of Pola lies Gambe, the Tiba center on this axis. Most Tiba people nevertheless reside, not in Gambe, but in hamlets on the surrounding hills."
