NIGERIA - BIAFRA - ANNIVERSARY - HISTORY - CONFLICT
A supporter of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) carries the Biafra flag as he runs across a courtyard on May 28, 2017 in the Osusu district of Aba. The Nigerian civil war’s 50th anniversary will be commemorated on May 30th. The war was triggered when the Igbo people, the main ethnic group in the southeast, declared an independent breakaway state, the Republic of Biafra.
