The Fulanis that are Nigerians are not more populous than the Igbo. But Fulanis are nationals in more than 18 countries in Africa. Add their total population and you may begin to understand how they could be more in number than the Igbo.

Do your research well, they only have high population in Nigeria, in other countries they are extremely minorities,
Igbo have more population than Fulani in Africa combined, this OP's post is false, see where it placed the Yoruba population

Igbos 34 million, yoruba 43 million ? Go back in history and check, there is no population census that was conducted in Nigeria where the population of the yorubas was more than the Igbos. The only other nation where yoruba have population strength outside Nigeria is Benin republic, and their population there is about 2 million. That would not alter the dynamics in favour of the yorubas or at most there would be a tie.
