Rubbish Argument!

USA has more than 5millions Jews close to the population of Israel.

Why haven't American over 5millions Jews return back to Israel?

Carefully read my post again; then slap yourself for that woefully faulty logic which you just express.

Have you come across any Igbo who isn't yet confused about anything?

ZombieTERROR:


They have come to open teeth
Are they Muslims ?
They don't know
Are they Christians?
They don't know
Are they traditionalists?
No idea

The Hausas are busy positioning emirs in their land while they are wallowing in confusion

Igbo's are descendants of GAD. So the DNA test may not yield the desired results as one can only identify Judah and Levi DNA . There is no database or reference for identifying the other 10 tribes which the Igbo group falls into.

So you want us to believe Igbos migrated from Bini. Laughable!
Listen broda, education and research will do you more good than being ignorant. I'm sorry for using the word "ignorant". Go and read the book "THE LOWER NIGER AND ITS TRIBES BY Major ARTHUR GLYN LEONARD LATE 2ND BATT. EAST LANCASHIRE REGIMENT AUTHOR OF 'THE CAMEL, ITS USES AND MANAGEMENT/ AND HOW WE MADE RHODESIA pulished in 1906"...Rhodesia was the initial name for Nigeria. Isuama, in which the purest Ibo is said to be spoken, is to be found the heart of the Ibo nationality ; consequently it is quite reasonable to look among its people for the original fountain-head from which all the other clans have sprung. This inference too is supported not only by the purity of the language, but by this right of dispensing or rather of conferring royalty which is undoubtedly the prerogative of the Nri or N'shi people.

Once more let us return to the vicinity of the Niger, to a place called Onitsha-Mili, lying a few miles to the north-west of Asaba. Here the tradition is that this place, along with the towns of Onitsha-Olona, Onitsha-Ukwu, Onitsha-Ugbo, and Onitsha-Ukwuani, migrated or were driven out, presumably between two to three hundred years ago, from the near vicinity of Benin City, which they speak of as Ado-n-Idu.

Crossing over the river to the east bank, some four or five miles below Asaba, is another community, comprising a principal town and several outlying villages, which is merely called Onitsha, that in olden days was undoubtedly the parent stock from which those now on the western side had been derived. According to its elders, fourteen generations since Ado-n-Idu was the capital of an extensive kingdom embracing many countries, but having religion, customs, and language in common, over which Oba ruled as king. At the time in question Onitsha, situated to the westward of Benin, and between it and the river, was one of these countries. It happened one day that Asije, the royal mother of this great monarch, went on to one of the farms belonging to Onitsha-Mili, for the purpose, it appears, of gathering sticks, for which she was seized and beaten by the people to whom the farms belonged. On her return to Benin she reported the matter of her ill-treatment to the king, and he at once ordered his younger brother Gbunmara, the commander-in-chief of his forces, to punish the insult which had been offered to his royal mother. Gbunmara immediately mustered a large army, and lost no time in invading the territory of Onitsha, the king of which, with all the available men whom he could collect, opposed him. After two days' severe fighting, however, the latter were defeated, and, sooner than surrender, the entire community retired to the locality on the western bank which is now occupied by the greater majority of their descendants, but a small portion made their way southward towards Abo. Chima the king, however, with his two sons Ekensu and Oreze and their households, retreated right across the river, and settled in the same spot that their successors now occupy.

But in leaving Ado-n-Idu behind them, these people then and for ever abandoned their Bini nationality and language. For even those who have remained on the western bank, and who are therefore within easy touch of Benin, are Ibo in every essential, talking pure Ibo, and not a mixed language, or even a dialect, in which Bini words are to be found. Yet the spirit of chima, their more modern founder and ancestor, is still with them, living and embodied in the same tree which he planted with his own hand.

In chapter 4 page 46 of the book in quote "A still more striking example, however, is that of Onitsha. For here we find a whole community, numbering now, at the lowest computation, 100,000 souls, Ibo in every respect, who 250 years ago at the most were Bini in language, as in everything else. What will you say about this broda? There is also a village in present northern part of Edo state called Adaobi in Afemai to be precise, they bear Igbo names and also knows about Akalaka, Ekpeye and Ogba who migrated further Southeast and they went North of Edo. They bears names like Udochi, Ogbonna https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afemai_people
