+
+### Dataset Summary
+
+MasakhaNER is the first large publicly available high-quality dataset for named entity recognition (NER) in ten African languages.
+
+Named entities are phrases that contain the names of persons, organizations, locations, times and quantities. Example:
+
+[PER Wolff] , currently a journalist in [LOC Argentina] , played with [PER Del Bosque] in the final years of the seventies in [ORG Real Madrid] .
+
+MasakhaNER is a named entity dataset consisting of PER, ORG, LOC, and DATE entities annotated by Masakhane for ten African languages:
+- Amharic
+- Hausa
+- Igbo
+- Kinyarwanda
+- Luganda
+- Luo
+- Nigerian-Pidgin
+- Swahili
+- Wolof
+- Yoruba
+
+The train/validation/test sets are available for all the ten languages.
+
+For more details see https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.11811
+
+
+### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
+
+[More Information Needed]
+
+- `named-entity-recognition`: The performance in this task is measured with [F1](https://huggingface.co/metrics/f1) (higher is better). A named entity is correct only if it is an exact match of the corresponding entity in the data.
+
+### Languages
+
+There are ten languages available :
+- Amharic (amh)
+- Hausa (hau)
+- Igbo (ibo)
+- Kinyarwanda (kin)
+- Luganda (kin)
+- Luo (luo)
+- Nigerian-Pidgin (pcm)
+- Swahili (swa)
+- Wolof (wol)
+- Yoruba (yor)
+
+## Dataset Structure
+
+### Data Instances
+
+The examples look like this for Yorùbá:
+
+```
+from datasets import load_dataset
+data = load_dataset('masakhaner', 'yor') 
+
+# Please, specify the language code
+
+# A data point consists of sentences seperated by empty line and tab-seperated tokens and tags. 
+{'id': '0',
+ 'ner_tags': [B-DATE, I-DATE, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, B-PER, I-PER, I-PER, O, O, O, O],
+ 'tokens': ['Wákàtí', 'méje', 'ti', 'ré', 'kọjá', 'lọ', 'tí', 'Luis', 'Carlos', 'Díaz', 'ti', 'di', 'awati', '.']
+}
+```
+
+### Data Fields
+
+- `id`: id of the sample
+- `tokens`: the tokens of the example text
+- `ner_tags`: the NER tags of each token
+
+The NER tags correspond to this list:
+```
+"O", "B-PER", "I-PER", "B-ORG", "I-ORG", "B-LOC", "I-LOC", "B-DATE", "I-DATE",
+```
+
+In the NER tags, a B denotes the first item of a phrase and an I any non-initial word. There are four types of phrases: person names (PER), organizations (ORG), locations (LOC) and dates & time (DATE).
+
+It is assumed that named entities are non-recursive and non-overlapping. In case a named entity is embedded in another named entity usually, only the top level entity is marked.
+
+### Data Splits
+
+For all languages, there are three splits.
+
+The original splits were named `train`, `dev` and `test` and they correspond to the `train`, `validation` and `test` splits.
+
+The splits have the following sizes :
+
+| Language                           | Tain  | Valid | Test |
+| -----                      | ----- | ----- | ---- |
+| Amharic      | 1750  |  250  |  500 |
+| Hausa        | 1903  |  272  |  545 |
+| Igbo         | 2233  |  319  |  638 |
+| Kinyarwanda  | 2110  |  301  |  604 |
+| Luganda      | 2003  |  200  |  401 |
+| Luo          |  644  |   92  |  185 |
+| Nigerian-Pidgin  | 2100  |  300  |  600 |
+| Swahili     | 2104  |  300  |  602 |
+| Wolof       | 1871  |  267  |  536 |
+| Yoruba      | 2124  |  303  |  608 |
+
+## Dataset Creation
+
+### Curation Rationale
+
+The dataset was introduced to introduce new resources to ten languages that were under-served for natural language processing.
+
+[More Information Needed]
+
+### Source Data
+
+The source of the data is from the news domain, details can be found here https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.11811
+
+#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization
+
+The articles were word-tokenized, information on the exact pre-processing pipeline is unavailable.
+
+#### Who are the source language producers?
+
+The source language was produced by journalists and writers employed by the news agency and newspaper mentioned above.
+
+### Annotations
+
+#### Annotation process
+
+Details can be found here https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.11811
+
+#### Who are the annotators?
+
+Annotators were recruited from [Masakhane](https://www.masakhane.io/)
+
+### Personal and Sensitive Information
+
+The data is sourced from newspaper source and only contains mentions of public figures or individuals
+
+## Considerations for Using the Data
+
+### Social Impact of Dataset
+[More Information Needed]
+
+
+### Discussion of Biases
+[More Information Needed]
+
+
+### Other Known Limitations
+
+Users should keep in mind that the dataset only contains news text, which might limit the applicability of the developed systems to other domains.
+
+## Additional Information
+
+### Dataset Curators
+
+
+### Licensing Information
+
+The licensing status of the data is CC 4.0 Non-Commercial
+
+### Citation Information
+
+Provide the [BibTex](http://www.bibtex.org/)-formatted reference for the dataset. For example:

+_DESCRIPTION = """\
+MasakhaNER is the first large publicly available high-quality dataset for named entity recognition (NER) in ten African languages.
+
+Named entities are phrases that contain the names of persons, organizations, locations, times and quantities.
+
+Example:
+[PER Wolff] , currently a journalist in [LOC Argentina] , played with [PER Del Bosque] in the final years of the seventies in [ORG Real Madrid] .
+MasakhaNER is a named entity dataset consisting of PER, ORG, LOC, and DATE entities annotated by Masakhane for ten African languages:
+- Amharic
+- Hausa
+- Igbo
+- Kinyarwanda
+- Luganda
+- Luo
+- Nigerian-Pidgin
+- Swahili
+- Wolof
+- Yoruba
+
+The train/validation/test sets are available for all the ten languages.
