Bubi (people)
The Bantu people of the Bubi are an autochthonous island ethnic group of the island of Bioko and live in Equatorial Guinea . At the beginning of the 20th century they were subjugated by the Spanish colonial power of the island, their last king, Löpèlo Mëlaka, died in 1937.
They speak the boy as their mother tongue , but many also speak Spanish - the official language of Equatorial Guinea - as a foreign language and recently more and more French and Portuguese are being adopted as second and third languages.
The Bubi are now predominantly Roman Catholic Christians . The boys had a particular period of suffering under the rule of Francisco Macías Nguema , the first dictator of Equatorial Guinea.
