Queens is one of the 5 boroughs that make up New York City. did you know it was named after Queen Catherine of Braganza, Queen of England and wife of King Charles II. not long ago the govt wanted to erect a statue of Queen Catherine in the Borough but there was a protest by the local residents against such a move bc the Queen came from a slave owning family and most of the current residents of Queens today are blacks and minority. Question: they say GEJ comes from Otuoke, what does the word otuoke mean in igbo? |
