Period I would love to always increase my knowledge about one stroke period and I’m very, very interested in is called the Biafrao. So it’s one of the events that happened in Nigeria regarding its happen in the early 1960s, I think before Nigeria’s independence day. So, immediately Nigeria had different cultures. So Biafrao came from the eastern part of Nigeria which involved the Igbo people from states like Inukul, Igbo states, all the Igbo region which is the eastern region of Nigeria. So, immediately what happened, I know about this history of North Korea because I read about it in a book written by a very great writer called Shimamanda. So she really dissected what happened during the Biafrao. Of course the Biafrao was but because the eastern people felt underplayed, undermined by the government. They felt like they were being treated in Nigeria and were not giving their rights. So they thought to separate from Nigeria as a whole and build their own country independently. I’m probably very interested because generally I love Nigerian culture, I love Nigerian history. I always want to know more about the events that played out and what’s brought about Nigeria as we look today. Biafrao is one of the very interesting events that happened in the Nigerian history.

The period I would love to always increase my knowledge about, and I'm very interested in, is called Biafra. It's one of the events that happened in Nigeria in the early 1960s, I think before Nigeria's independence. Nigeria has different cultures, and Biafra came from the eastern part of Nigeria, which involved the Igbo people from states like Enugu, Igbo states, and the entire Igbo region, which is the eastern region of Nigeria. I know about this history because I read about it in a book written by a very great writer called Chimamanda. She really dissected what happened during the Biafra conflict. The Biafra conflict occurred because the eastern people felt marginalized and undermined by the government. They felt like they were being treated unfairly in Nigeria and were not given their rights. So, they sought to separate from Nigeria as a whole and build their own country independently. I'm very interested in this topic because I love Nigerian culture and history. I always want to know more about the events that played out and what has brought about Nigeria as we know it today. Biafra is one of the most interesting events in Nigerian history.
