The number 15,000 is taken from the 15th edition of Ethnologue (2005). "The number 20,000 is based on a survey conducted in 2010 by the District Head in Mataka. This number still does not reflect the number of Sakun speakers living down in Sukur Settlement adjacent Madagali. Estimates are as high as 27,000 total native Sakun speakers. As with many languages in the area, the estimated number of speakers does not reflect those speaking Sakun as a second language. Just as many Sakun speaker [sic] other minority languages in the area, many non-Sakun may still speak Sakun."
