    Like Mande and Dogon, Ijoid lacks even traces of the noun class system considered characteristic of Niger–Congo, and so might have split early from that family. Linguists Gerrit Dimmendaal and Tom Güldemann doubts its inclusion in Niger–Congo altogether and considers the Ijaw/Ijoid languages to be an independent family.
