Most Africans with albinism have yellowish hair, but forget it, people who studied medical science have said this it is not albinism, so there is not argument.

Where did these white ancestors come from? There is no point in recent history where white people mixed with the Igbo population, and even genetics backs this up. Do the Yoruba people with "white features" have white ancestors?

yea or arab every once in a while you will come across a yoruba person and say hmmm dis guy resemble arab man ( mostly muslims tho ) or everyonce in a while you go see yoruba person who get hazel colored eyes mostly the people from Lagos or Ogun state - you know slave repatriates. every one else is black

Just like Edo peeps (some) are mixed with portuguese- they know dat,

ezeagu:

Most Igbo villages keep an oral record of their ancestors, people on the Bight of Biafra didn't even mix with Europeans like other places, and the monarchs of the slave ports were well in control, unlike Elmina castle and the rest. Slave weren't despoiled and then released in what became Southern Nigeria, and then, what, did they randomly stumble into someone village, have the baby and then marry a freeborn? Please show me one Igbo man who's ancestry goes back to a European.

Do you think its every woman that would have been taken as a slave? What are concubines for? You think the white people hanging on the coast for months didnt have some means of entertainment? Especially in Igbo land with close proximity to port harcourt and all those coastal areas that had interaction with white people. You can even see the huge influence in Ijaw and Rivers peoples traditional hats.So it is very very likely that some people may have been mixed somewhere. Lets not even go into the time of missionaries. You think missionaries that spent sooo long teaching and introducing religion were celebate all through? haha

There was little to no 'mingling' and even if it happened, it was between the Europeans and the coastal peoples, e.g Kalabari, Opobo, Ibibio, Oron, Efik. The top hats were used by Europeans to trade for slaves, not because their father was English. If missionaries had children with the Igbo people, where are the Igbo people with European grandfathers, and even if you can find them, how does a handful of people affect over 20 million people? I know Igbo people who have light toned skin and "white features" whose ancestors have never met Europeans before, talk less of mixing with them. A significant amount of Europeans never even began to enter the interior of Igboland until around the mid 19th century, so where did all this mixing take place in places like Nsukka or Abakaleke?

.

it comes as no surprise to me because we have white people in my mums family of pure black ancestry.i think the original parents of igbos was a blackman and a whitewoman.

tpiah, plz take down the last picture.

i think the original parents of igbos was a blackman and a whitewoman

.
whats there to think, i thought u guy are from Israel.
look back at various claim on n.l

There are plenty of albinos in Igbo society though. Common sights throughout any Igbo family. This is just a genetic miracle though.

Tpia put the pic up again!

Do you think back then Africans will really know the difference? I have seen mixed children that are so black, when mixed with a pure black African. You cannot tell they are mixed, their hair may just be a little softer than a pure African baby. A lot of children back then may have been mixed, and mothers passing them off as their husbands children. This is very possible. And which Nigerian will admit to having a white fore father, so that the person can lose relevance in society and be disinherited. This is if they will ever know. You talk as if those people off the coast never intermarried with Igbo's. You know as a whole how the African society can be intrigued by lighter skinned women. Recessive genes are something else, and you never know when they rear their heads. Just as in this case. That baby is definitely a product of recessive genes. Either both parents had it, or one parent has really, really strong recessive genes. This just proves what i have always thought about very light skinned Igbo's. Its odd. Even the san men of south africa, who are lighter skinned than other African's are not as light as some Igbo's in Nigeria. A research should be done on how the strain of Igbo gene interacts with the white gene, cause i dont think it suppresses it too well.

^^dont stress your brain abeg.

yes, igbos have white ancestors.

let the matter end there.

No, sorry, the bold text is not possible. I don't know of any stories of Igbo wives travelling to go and meet European men and coming back to then have a baby, on top of that, they pass it as black. When I said most Igbo people can trace their genealogy, I mean from every fathers father that usually goes back to the villages progenitor. I can't see an Igbo woman travelling to Bonny, on her own, that's number one. Number two I can't see an Igbo woman getting raped in Bonny with the amount of Africans trading there.

As for the coastal people, these people did not even mix with the Europeans, as in having children, for them to have significant European ancestry. The people there are as black if not blacker than the Igbo. The small European genes they would have had would not have affected 20 million Igbo people.

And for an example of 'black' blondes without European ancestors:
This is a boy from the Solomon Islands, off of Australia



You can argue that he has European ancestry, but European ancestry in 'black' people does not have this high frequency of blondes.

And why is it not possible for an Ibo woman to cheat on her husband??!!?

Thats how most "blacks" (if u can call them that) in the Pacific look! How does that justify two black as all hell Ibo couple having a Scandinavian looking baby? Niggra the ho cheated and her husband is a sucker thats the end of story!

Oh well

that baby doesnt look mixed one bit.the woman should be investigated.until she comes out clean,our arguments here are nullified.

you have to be an idiot if you think that igbos are mixed, genetic tests says they are pure. its called variation. just like whites can be blondes, brunettes, reds, etc blacks can be light to very dark
