The Borgu people are a subgroup of Fulani that are inhabitants of Borgou and Alibori Departments in Benin and also found in Togo.
Borgu’s area of plains and wooded savanna is drained by several small streams that flow eastward to the Niger River, the area’s eastern boundary. Poor soils, low rainfall (especially in the dry season), and Fulani slave raids in the 19th century have made Borgu one of Nigeria’s least-populated regions.
