IBO , a
district
  of British West Africa, on the
lower
  Niger immediately above the
delta
 , and mainly on the eastern bank of the river. The
chief
  town, frequently called by the same name (more correctly Abo or Aboh), lies on a creek which falls into the
main
  stream about 150 M. from its mouth and contains from 6000 to 8000 inhabitants. The Ibo are a strong well-built Negro race. Their
women
  are distinguished by their embonpoint. The language of the Ibo is one of the most widely spoken on the
lower
