Who they are
The Beele, who call themselves Buli, live in three villages in Bauchi Local Government Area in Bauchi State, Nigeria, around a hill called Buli. The buli language is used in every home, among parents, children, grandparents and friends, although it is endangered. Many Buli follow Christ. There are no markets or health centers in the villages.
