Strong oppose .  The Serer Niominka are part of the Serer ethnic group.  Failure to recognise that would be a failure to recognise the diversity of the Serer group.  Even Becker commented on this diversity (See: Charles Becker. "Vestiges historiques, trémoins matériels du passé clans les pays sereer". Dakar. 1993).  Not only are they group together with the Serers because they speak Serer, but they also have Serer culture etc. Every one even in the Senegambia refer to them as Serers and they see themselves as Serers.  Is just like saying the Ndut and Safi etc who speak Cangin languages are not Serers ethnically.  Sometimes people use Niominka as a shorthand, but I don't think we should deny people their Serer heritage.  Indeed, by referring to them as Serer-Niominkaa, we recognise both their Serer heritage and Niominka.  To call them just Niominka would be denying them their Serer heritage.  Many scholar refer to them as Serer-Niominka just as Serer-Njegeme, Serer-Siin, etc.  (See:   Dennis Charles Galvan. The state must be our master of fire, p38. Also: Leonardo Alfonso Villalón. Islamic society and state power in Senegal, p51; African economic history, volume 25, University of WisconsinMadison. African Studies Program, p32).  Most of the confusion regarding who should be called Serer is to do with the various cangin languages and Serer Sine.  The Serer people however are not confused and they see themselves as Serer ethnically even if they speak a different dialect or language to other Serers.  It is normally outsiders who tend to divide the Serer into compartments rather than just letting them be.  The Serer Associations of Dakar as well as the Serer community have been trying for years to fight this division of the Serer group by outsiders.  No one is subsuming anyone.  Serer-Niominka culture is recognised and celebrated within the Serer group just like Serer-Sine, Serer-Njegheme etc.  The reason for this is, because it is Serer culture period.
