Perhaps, but the “tall and smooth skinned people” description seems to fit people in northern Nigeria, South Sudan, Mali, Senegal etc.
The people of South Sudan, northern Kenya, northern Uganda, Somalia fit that description….The Dinkas, Maasai even the Tutsi. These people are noted for their heights, elegance and beauty of their skin.

The only light skinned tribes are in igbo Land and niger Delta and this is what makesup the defunct Biafra.

The only landscape that fits this prophecy is Biafra. Little wonder the devil and his cohorts have been fighting tooth and nail to abort Biafra

Ijebu is the 'Sheba' of the bible.

The people there call that great queen Bilikisu Sungbo.

Her tomb in Eredo, Ijebu, is said to be very long, and they believe she was a giantess.

She is known as 'BILKIS' in ancient Arab writings, showing that it is one and the same person.

At Eredo, Ijebu sits a wall rampart that is so long that it has been called the ''world's largest archaeological phenomenon''.

There are researchers who believe that the world's biggest city of antiquity is buried there today.

The clincher and the hook the Europeans have never been able to swallow is that ancient Egyptians were black and Isrealites of the bible were always mistaken for Egyptian..........Moses was mistaken for An Egyptian in Midia,Paul was mistaken for an Egyptian during one of his missionary journeys.....Joseph and Mary took baby Jesus to Egypt to hide from Herod..........they had to have been black not to stick out amidst the Black egyptian population! This is the reason western scholars are fixated with proving that ancient were white!

The academic world knows ancient Isrealites were black people! Read deuteronomy chapters 28 and 29 and tell me who the cap fits!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think all indication points to Nigeria. Why weren't we taught this in Bible class as kids?

As in, how else could you have described Nigeria??

There is something called phenotype...........essentially based on genes! Igbo are generally fairer in complexion than most core west African tribes.............gene analysis shows Igbos are more closely related to the Bantu of central and southern Africa than to even Yorubas ,Binis and Hausas..........many actually consider igbos to be proto-bantu sef!! This somewhat proves the theory that the bantus spread out fromthe Nigerian cameroon southern borders!

The Pope himself prays to a black Jesus in secret.

Does a white man’s skin turn “black like an oven“ when he is hungry?

Nope.

That only happens to black folks during famine.

Go and watch old videos of famine in Darfur and Somalia. The people turn pure pitch black.

So black that they turn an ash-coloured, smoky grey black, like of an ‘oven’.
And it's hunger that made them to become black?
Re: Was Nigeria Mentioned In The Bible? by Catapault: 5:36am On Nov 09, 2023
Lifestone:

They were black already.

Black people get darker and their skins shrivel up in conditions of famine.

The famine conditions in a period in which they were under Babylonian captivity made the Israelites' skin pitch black and shrivelled, and they noticed and reported, in Lamentations 5:10 ''our skin is black like an oven from the terrible famine''.

This is what I saw in Lamentation 3: 10 is there something I'm missing. Check your facts

Understandably, Nigeria didn't exist at the time, but the land was already there. If the Bible is meant to be divinely inspired, then God already knew that at some point in the future a nation will sprout from that land and those things listed will be how one gets to identify them.

Saying your skin is 'black' like oven is condescending..

Start reading from verse 1, to understand what verse 10 is saying.
