Public Comment
"The Tiéfo population numbers between 12,000 and 15,000, according to calculations based on the 1985 Burkina census (INSD 1991), and attempting to take into account both population growth and the percentage of villagers who would not be Tiéfo. It is important to note, however, that there are presently around 1,000 Tiéfo who speak their mother tongue."
