Niko is danced in southern Somalia, especially in the Banaadir region (Mogadishu and its surroundings). It’s most common among coastal southern communities and is traditionally performed at weddings and celebrations. The dance is known for its rhythmic hip and shoulder movements, call-and-response singing, and drum patterns—very social, very sensual, very communal. You generally won’t see Niko in northern Somali regions like Somaliland or Puntland, where dances like Dhaanto are more common.
