Demographics contradiction

The statement: "Africans form a majority (70%) in the province of Esmeraldas and the Valle del Chota in the Imbabura Province." is seemingly contradictory to the demographics sections of the Esmeraldas and Imbabura pages. I suspect that this as a case of a poorly worded fact (Perhaps 70% of the Afro-Ecuadoran population resides in those provinces??). I hope someone with expertise will look at this and clear up confusion. Overall, much of the article is informative and interesting though. Bill McKenna (talk) 10:29, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up, Bill McKenna. Given that there are no citations, and that the Spanish language version simply states that the majority of the Afro-Ecuadorian population are to be found in the Esmeraldas Province (that's 43.9% of the population), I've changed it to reflect that interpretation, plus have tagged it for citations. 70% of the ethnic group could be correct, but I'll go through the 2011 census results by Cantón for verification when I have a little time. Cheers! --Iryna Harpy (talk) 22:56, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
