Are Igbos The Problem Of Nigeria? by adgorwell(op): 6:08pm On Nov 30, 2015
The world is increasingly organized along larger political areas; consider the size of the USA, Canada, China, Brazil, India, Russia, and if you see the EU as a single polity, the EU. Therefore, it was of no interest for me to talk about a people whose entire area is, may be, one hundred miles across, north to south and West to East. Alaigbo is actually the size of some large counties in the USA! I certainly did not think of Biafra.

The term Biafra, I understand, is derived from the Portuguese village of Mafra; Africa is supposed to become decolonized and its European names replaced with African names. That notwithstanding, many Igbos have doubled down on their Portuguese name and insist on being called Biafrans. Shame on them! Their proper name is Alaigbo.
