The extent of their cannibalism points to little value for human life since men were seen more as meat than fellows, leading to the acquisition of expertise in kidnapping. When they learnt of the fortune they could make from the sale of their fellow men in the trans-Atlantic slave trade, money displaced cannibalism which had earlier displaced human life in their social priorities, as they began kidnapping themselves to fulfill their craving to be seen as wealthy.

The end of the overseas export of slaves meant a closure of an avenue to wealth but many Nigerians, even after Nigerian independence in 1960 still suspected that Igbo cannibalism never stopped. However, when the Igbo noticed that the Niger Delta militants who used kidnap as an avenue to seek redress for rape and environmental degradation were getting success, they revived it as an industry. Right now their homeland is tremendously notorious as they kidnap themselves for ransom almost at will and, to the annoyance of other Nigerians, have been shamelessly perpetrating the act outside of Igboland, even in northern Nigeria where Islam is taken seriously. It is no surprise that they have been the target of terrorist Islamic groups like Boko Haram and repeatedly chased away from and slaughtered in the north, yet they play the victim card and refuse to accept that they have been historical provocateurs. Presently, bandy what they suppose to be actual figures of the sizes of various African populations that were carried away during the slave trade to the Americas which show that a huge proportion were Igbo and thus boast openly; an attempt to claim fatherhood of African-American slave descendants. Perhaps they are declaring to the world that these numbers are proof of their unmatched expertise at kidnapping!

Morphology

Physically, the Igbo can be identified using certain peculiar features as markers which make them stand out wherever they travel, making them easy targets for brutal attacks by their aggrieved hosts. Somehow the Igbo have refused to note them, thus exposing themselves to such attacks over and over again:

Males and females appear quite hairy compared to other nearby West African peoples. Their women are noted for their plentiful facial hair (including moustaches and beards) and chest hair – perhaps due to high testosterone levels. Just as yam consumption by the Yoruba has been linked to their world-leading twinning rates, a constituent of the Igbo diet e.g. cocoyam might be linked to the hair preponderance. A genetic factor may also responsible.
Their skin tone ranges from very light (like that of Mediterranean Europeans) to REDDISH to dark brown (many have pointed to the light complexions as indicators of Igbo racial superiority over others, of being a chosen people, and of being one with the fake jews who are of the synagogue of Satan. Unlike other Nigerian nationalities, they are the ones notorious for claiming to have the most handsome men, most beautiful women, best this and best that; quite reminiscent of white supremacists, false Zionism, Nazi ideology, and apartheid. Piebald patches and albinism have also been reported.
Both males and females have muscular physiques, and many women have manly-looking biceps, shoulders and calves (cannibalism was tremendously encouraged to attain such looks).
They engage in head-shaping of their infants which explains the presence in their population of what appears as near flatness and corners at the rear of their skulls.
Their skin, especially of the women, takes on a peculiar textural appearance as they get past their 60s.
Among Igbo men from, say, 30 years of age and above, the maxilla, that is, the part of the face between the nostrils and the upper lip where the moustache grows to the left and right of the philtrium, appears to take on a bulging shape giving that part of the face a larger surface area like the shape of one-half of a coconut, compared to that of other Nigerian peoples. This feature is easily identified as most shave their moustaches completely. I call it the IGBO MAXILLA.
