Biafra Is A Foreign Name, Whereas Nigeria Originated From River Niger by Yenefer(f): 2:45pm On May 21, 2020 |
Biafra is a foreign name, whereas the name of Nigeria originated from the River Niger traces the origin of the name 'Biafra' which claimed has no origin in the Igbo language. He claimed that pro-Biafra activist, Nnamdi Kanu, and members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) are ignorant about the Igbo origin. When I say that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the Radio Biafra broadcaster and self acclaimed leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), and his followers are intellectually retarded, they will feel insulted and provoked. But their intellectual ignorance is a fact and not an insult. The fact that a group of Igbos are barking like dogs and calling themselves a name that is not in the #Igbo dictionary and did not originate from Igbo tribe is a disgrace and a shame. The name of Biafra is a foreign name, whereas the name of Nigeria originated from the River Niger. From archeological discoveries and etymological studies, there is nothing linking Igbos to the Jews. The Jewish link is mere myth of fantasy without any evidence in the DNA mapping. The origin of the Igbos is clearly shown in the Igbo Ukwu Art of Ọ̀ràézè Ǹrì dating back to 948 CE. Case closed. Origin of Biafra The Bight of Biafra, or Mafra (named after the town Mafra in southern Portugal), between Capes Formosa and Lopez, is the most eastern part of the Gulf of Guinea; it contains the islands Fernando Po [Equitorial Guinea], Prince’s and St Thomas’s. The name Biafra - as indicating the country - fell into disuse in the later part of the 19th century. A 1710 map indicates that the region known as "Biafar" (Biafra) was located in present day Cameroon. 3 Likes |

So you are telling us that Biafra was already there in 1710 while Nigeria came in 1914, almost after 3 centuries. Thank you for this history. Let this people go. What is too much about that? Or are they modern day slave, held against their wish? 7 Likes 2 Shares |

Sharap OP Haven't you read the book. Eboe: The lost tribe of Israel Around 1300BC during Moses time. The slaves were developing Egypt then, the blacks among them are Eboes (changed to Igbos by the settlers they met in South East). These blacks are hard workers, they built pyramid, built almost everything. Then Moses came to liberate them from the hardship. They ran toward the red sea. Moses divided the red sea and every tribes of Israel crossed but Eboe were holding Egyptian army back. They were the last to cross the sea. But Moses couldn't hold it any longer. So the sea closed while the Eboes were still crossing it. The water then brought them all the way from Egypt to River Niger where they settle down in South East 7 Likes 1 Share |

MinorityOpinion:So what? Why don't you people go and Cross the sea now. Stylishly lobbying for Israel to help your failed Secessionist movement, Fulani are more related to Jews than u people. Jews want money and security for their people, they literally make a deal with the devil to achieve that. U people want money, lot's of money. Tru illegal means. The Jews are smart and intelligent they saw right through u. Is better for them to be on good side with the north, because the North are their neighbors and Muslims...... Hate to break it to you the Jews will not want a situation where North Africa is against them 1 Like |
