Learning About The Yoruba: by BuffaloSoldier(m): 9:21pm On Feb 26, 2012 |
A couple of months ago, I decided to do the DNA thing like all of the celebrities, I know that they only test one branch, Despite the results, I wouldnt go around claiming anything African, Im still a American, I love my culture, But, I was just curious cuz I know my ancestors come from Africa, Well, my brother beat me to it, He took the test for our paternal side, My father-his father-- and so on, The results came back Yoruba in present day Nigeria, I have heard bad things about Nigerians, Even from Africans, They say that they scam people and sell drugs and all that, But, I know everyone is not bad, Anyway,, I guess my direct paternal grandfather was a man from Nigeria, I just wanna know something about the people out of curiosity and nothing more, I wonder what hapenned, Was he a criminal, a low person in society?!?1 It doesnt matter just wondering, Thanks, oh, I did read about Yoruba's and having twins, I have twin boys and alot of my cousins on my father side does too,
