With lots of claims, ignorance and treasonable acts, there has not as yet any clearly defined territorial extent or boundary by the latter day 'Biafranists.' The question remains, where on Earth have you seen people fighting for a country whose land border is as foggy, wavy and as distant the mirage? Just as the boundary, the name 'Biafra' itself right from its Portuguese origins, through colonization to Ojukwu's, Uwazuruike's and the slippery Nnamdi Kanu's era has no known ancestralal basis and linkages in present-day Nigeria's Igboland. Image I: The Portuguese named a country 'Biafra' after Mafra in Portugal. It extended from mid-Cameroon to Equatorial Guinea and Gabon. Nigeria's South South and South East was called "Benin" and was never part of 'Biafra.' Image II: Mafra, Portugal To the Portuguese, the present-day Igboland was a Benin territory, or a vassal state of the Kingdom. The real 'Biafra', being in Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon indicated a massive Igbo migration in earlier centuries that limited the Benin Kingdom to the swampy and less agriculturally viable parts of the Kingdom. Logically, therefore, the so-called 'Biafrans' should relocate back to their ancestral lands in Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon, and any claims to 'Biafra' and its independence should also start from from those lost territories. Image III; A 1644 W. J Blaeu's Map puts 'Biafra' clearly in Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea and Sai Tome and Principe. Image IV: A 1710 Hermann Moll Map of 'Biafra' (Cameroon's original name), and Benin (present-day Igboland's name). https://library.princeton.edu/visual_materials/maps/websites/africa/maps-continent/continent.html 5 Likes 3 Shares

This shows that the true Biafrans are there in Cameroon, Guinea and some part of Gabon. What we have here are chest beaters and land grabbers. Also this report confirm that Igbo are land grabbers who migrated to Nigeria and start claiming what is not theirs. However, If you a true Biafran you can relocate to your ancestral land and start the real struggle. If care isn't taking one day they will claim Lagos and Sabon Gari Kano. 2 Likes |

They also seem to have placed Benin in Igbo, Efik and Ejagham lands. But in actual fact, we know the Nri-Igbo kings authorised the crowning of any Igodomigodo and Benin obas. So to correct the inaccuracies, just move the labels BENIN and BIAFRA further to the west, and place them in their correct locations 2 Likes |

being intelligent by half is really dangerous... Op can you show us the exact location of the African continent in the first map you shared?? And also indicate the location of yorubas and hausas in the map you shared.. Do you no how the name Biafra was adopted? Before ojukwu declare the state of Biafra was ndi igbo known as biafrans?? During the period that the said map you agreed was drawn were the Igbo been referred to as biafrans...?? 4 Likes |
