[Corpora-List] Looking for Igbo, Hausa, and Yoruba Corpora

[Fink, Clayton R.]

There's a BBC Hausa service and a Yoruba-language Wikipedia, so there 
are some possibilities for those languages. Igbo seems to be a real 
problem, though, in terms of finding text corpora.

I'm interested, mostly, in training up language id models that I can use 
on names. I have some small corpora of first names and surnames scraped 
off of the Web, but it might be interesting to have some larger corpora 
to work from.

Thanks,

Clay
