Introduction / History

The Kuteb people originated in Egypt. They migrated to their present location in Cameroon and Nigeria 1,000 years ago.


What Are Their Lives Like?

The Kuteb have been engaged in violent conflicts with neighboring tribes in the 21st century. They have fought with the Tiv, the Jukun and the Chamba.


What Are Their Beliefs?

The Kuteb people have family idols, but they also worship a supreme being whom they believe brings them rain. Today most are Christian, especially those in Nigeria. Traditional religion has a stronger hold on those who live in Cameroon.


What Are Their Needs?

The Kuteb people need peace in their communities.

Disclaimers:
  1. Joshua Project data is drawn from many sources and of varying accuracy depending on source and editorial decisions. Populations are scaled to the current year. Other data may have varying ages. We welcome updates.
  2. Joshua Project occasionally adjusts profile text from third party sources. This is done to avoid confusion regarding the current reality of a people group, to fix grammar and spelling and to avoid potentially offensive wording.
  3. A displayed zero can mean true zero, a very small rounded number or sometimes unknown. Blanks mean an unknown value.
  4. Data is not as precise as it appears. Values for %Christian Adherent and %Evangelical (which determine unreached status) are often informed estimates, some more accurate than others. We recommend against using %Christian Adherent and %Evangelical to calculate absolute numbers.
  5. Joshua Project makes every effort to ensure that the subject in an image is in fact from the specific people group. In rare instances a representative photo may be used.
