The IGBO TRIBE in EQUATORIAL GUINEA:

The Igbos, as officially declared by the government of Equatorial Guinea, is the third-largest after the Fang and Bubi tribes, and occupies a small area in Bioko. Their communities are small compared to Bubi and Fang. The majority of them migrated to Bioko, from Arochukwu, Abia State of Nigeria.

The Igbos of Equatorial Guinea, numbering 33,500 are no longer unreached. They are part of the Igbo people cluster within the Sub-Saharan African affinity bloc. This group, though a minority of people, rank third-largest in Equatorial Guinea, a country with a total population of 1.2milliom  people.

Their primary language is Igbo. The primary religion practiced by the Igbo is marginal Christianity, a form of religion with roots in Christianity but not theologically Christianity. They are traditionalists and custodians of Culture.
