igbo

Biafra was largely Igbo, and the war saw large amounts of Igbo have properties elsewhere in Nigeria confiscated, and many Igbos were deported from places like Lagos.

The last time it happened for breaking the seal, afaik, was in 2018 when Ezinwanne Igbo was excommunicated.

Last I checked, Igbo immigrants from Nigeria were doing very well in the British and European education systems.

Many Igbo as a result to this day consider themselves outsiders, or see it as unsafe to put down ties elsewhere in Nigeria.

As an example, the formation of African states, cutting across traditional tribal lines which resulted in the ethnic cleansing of the Igbo in former Yorubaland/Nigeria.

Welp, I knew my Igbo name wouldn't be in the boy's name database.

Make it possible to learn Igbo from German.

English, Chinese, Indonesian, Arabic, Igbo are all Subject-Verb-Object.

There are African, Black subcultures like the Igbo and Ashanti that achieve to the highest levels academically (including in the West!) and Asian subcultures that don't place any focus on education, and struggle as a result.

In Igbo culture, when a prominent man dies, his burial is a ceremony that can last for days, cows are slaughtered, friends he has made across life drop everything they are doing and come for the funeral.

I can create variations of what I learn and experience, and I can choose where I go and what I experience or allow others to do so for me, but I can't speak a word of Igbo language* because I've not experienced any.

One of the thing she saw all around was her family, and her Igbo friends families, who were fairly successful and many of whom worked well paid jobs in Abuja (the capital) or Lagos, who would opt to rent in Abuja and Lagos while funnelling all their money into building houses in their birth villages that they rarely used.

This is analogous to having to prompt for "Igbo Nigerian" in order to get "Igbo Nigerian".

A European looks at Lagos and sees "Nigerians", a Nigerian looks at Lagos and sees Yoruba, Igbo, etc.

If it was the other way around and a prompt for "Nigerian person" would return an image of a person from one specific group then these people would complain that "not every Nigerian is Igbo.

But with the history of the language, the vocabulary is still mixed between French origin and like Akan/Igbo/Yoruba etc.

Kuma a cewar abokin aikina na Najeriya, yaren de-facto a Najeriya Ingilishi ne, ba Hausa/Igbo/Yoruba ba.

On top of that, most Nigerian Americans tend to be Yoruba and Igbo, just like the ancestors of most African Americans.
