Biafra wins the Nigerian Civil War

Really? Didn't know that. I guess it would depend on what caused its explosive growth IOTL, and whether or not the break up of Nigeria would strangle it in the crib.

Actually I couldn't find exact figures for 1967, but wikipedia reports 655'246 for 1963 and 1'060'848 for 1975, so I interpolated.

One has to wonder if rural migration would have occurred all the same if the petroleum industry had developed elsewhere. Does Biafra have good ports?
Where are refineries located OTL?

IIRC they're mostly located in what would be Biafra, Port Harcourt in Nigeria's centre of refining and exporting oil.
