Igboland

Igboland, or Igbo land (Igbo: Ala Igbo or Ana/Ali/Ani Igbo), also – to the dismay of Igbo People – mis-spelt or mis-pronounced as the Ibo(e), Ebo(e), and Heebo Country (by non-Africans and Africans who vehemently reject African Culture), is a cultural region and language area in Nigeria that includes the indigenous territory and cultural reach of the Igbo people. Historically, Igboland has taken a large part of southeastern Nigeria, mostly on the eastern side of the Niger River. It extends westward across the Niger to the regions of Aniocha, Ndokwa, Ukwuani, Ika and Auchi.
