What Does Biafra Mean In Igbo Language? by naijapips02: 6:30pm On Jul 18, 2021
The name Biafra has nothing to do with Igbos. It was a union that existed that we Igbos adopted. If you say otherwise, kindly explain what Biafra means in Igbo language.

Igbo nation is a better fit or a name that is derived from the Igbo language that we can all rally around. The name Biafra was stolen.

Portuguese people refer to northern towns as goat trading centres. What are the modalities for setting up goats arena in the north?

That would be an irony if the nation that is meant to represent freedom is known by a name given by white colonialists.

Reporting because you keep derailing the thread with irrelevant mentions of goat? When you behave in a certain way, expect to be called out.
