The Yukubenic languages (or Oohum languages)[1] are a branch of either the Jukunoid family or the Plateau family spoken in southeastern Nigeria. Glottolog places Yukubenic in the Plateau family.[2] Ethnologue, however, places Yukubenic in the Jukunoid family,[3] based on Shimizu (1980), and Blench also follows this classification.[1]
