What is Biafra?

Former frontman for The Dead Kennedys, before the band split due to being persecuted by Tipper Gore for including the Giger artwork "Penis Landscape" with their Frankenchrist album (although you can still send off the coupon included to own it if you want to).

Since then has gone on to be a well reknowned spoken word artist/activist with several CDs to his name (Become the Media, Machine Gun in the Clown's Hand etc.) and even a Presidential candidate for the Green party. However, the rest of his former band are intent on suing him for not selling out and using classic DK standard Holiday in Cambodia in a Levis commercial.

Also worked with Ministry in the Lard side project, and has featured on tracks for bands as diverse as Pitchshifter, Sepultura and The Presidents of the USA, with a few acting credits as well.

Let's face it - no matter what he does, he'll always be remembered for being the bloke that sang Too Drunk to Fuck...

What does "Biafra" mean?

Frontman for political punk band The Dead Kennedys. Jello is a huge corporation that makes non-nutritional foods. Basically food that you don't need. Biafra was a place in Africa that doesn't have any food, and suffers of mass starvation. Atleast it once was, I'm not sure if it still exists. Jello Biafra was put together for the irony. They're starving, we spend millions on food that hurts us more than helps us.

Jello Biafra is a very politcal, yet humurous person.

Biafra - what does it mean?

lead singer of the dead kennedys from their formation in 1978 to their break up in 1986. he wrote a great deal of the lyrics, and is quite possibly the most influential front man in punk history. jello was politically active in the san francisco area for several years, and almost won the election for mayor. currently, jello sits as the president of his record label 'alternative tentacles' and travels around the country on spoken word tours that attack ultra-conservative politicians, free speech bashers, and terminal preppies. this guy is the shit!

jello biafra got his name by combining the completely malnutritious sugary food (jello) with one of the world's most impoverished and hungry nations (biafra).

Biafra - meaning

The lead singer of the bay area punk band, The Dead Kennedys, who's material included some of the most groundbreaking and intelligent music I have ever heard. This is because of Jello Biafra. That man is politically and intellectually informed. And funny while at it. Although the Dead Kennedys were during the Reagan era, his views still speak strong today, and today he works actively for change. Go research the guy, he OWNS YOU.

Jello Biafra for president...2012!!!!!!
(So I can vote for him then :)

Biafra

The nation that would have been the star of Africa if not for the evil British. The nation of one of the brightest and most enterprising people on Earth, the Igbos.

Unlike the Igbos, the Yorubas are often content to be the bitches of Hausa-Fulani.

One day Biafra we will be reborn and leave Nigeria's sorry ass.

Biafra

Definition
Used to be a country for eastern people of Nigeria from 1976 to 1970.
Then the eastern people of Nigerians were called Biafrans when they rebelled against Nigeria and form their own soverignty.

Biafrans are people of the eastern part of Nigeria mostly Igbos.

Background
In 1967, Igbos and other eastern part of Nigeria, lead by then Col. Chukwuemeka Odimegwu Ojukwu declared eastern Nigeria a Sovereign state of Biafra. This led to the three years Nigerian-Biafran Civil war in which millions were slaughter in a fight for self-determination. The Nigeria underestimated the young country and thought that the war would last for three weeks. Instead, weeks turned months and months turned years. It took Nigeria three years to defeat Biafra. Biafrans were reintegrated into Nigeria again as One-Nigeria

Most of Nigerian oil reserves are located at the Bright of Biafra. That is why Nigeria went to war with Biafra.

Ojukwu still believe that he is a Biafran.

There are a lot of Igbos that still consider themesleves as Biafrans

Nigeria kicked Biafra ass during the civil war

Biafra

It is a Nation. The word Biafra is coind from two IGBO WORDS 'bia' which means COME and 'fara' which means LIVE. The people are part of the AFAR ethnic group in the horn of Africa, although CHRISTIANS. They are also from NRI KINGDOM and part of the LOST TRIBE OF ISRAEL.They were amalgameted to be part of Nigeria in 1914 by the British government led by Frederick Lugard. The people of Biafra do not see themselves as NIGERIANS. Between 6 July 1967 and 15 January 1970, about 3.5 million Biafrans were killed in a genocide war led by the British and the Nigerian government when they seceded from Nigeria.They lost the war and were once more integrated into Nigeria.They own the eastern and southern part of Nigeria. They are still seeking for their freedom Independence from Nigeria. The nationality is Biafran.
