On 6 August 1861, the Bight of Biafra and the neighboring Bight of Benin (under its own British consuls) became a united British consulate, again under British consuls: 1861—December 1864 Richard Francis Burton December 1864—1873 Charles Livingstone 1873—1878 George Hartley 1878—13 September 1879 David Hopkins 13 September 1879—5 June 1885 Edward Hyde Hewett. In 1967, the Eastern Region of Nigeria seceded from the Nigerian State and adopted the name of its coastline, the adjoining Bight of Biafra, becoming the newly independent Republic of Biafra. This independence was short-lived as the new state lost the ensuing Nigerian Civil War. In 1975, by decree, the Nigerian government changed the name of the Bight of Biafra to the Bight of Bonny. |
