So your pain is that they did not include your ethnic group in Barbados.?

It's now a quota system thing now.?

You can as well export your own people there in 2021.

By the next 100 years, I am sure one of their descendants will be a dancehall star.

Majority of the Caribbeans are aware of their ancestral lineage. She’s likely correct. I don’t know why she chose to broadcast it now. The thing I find the most funny is Nigerian guys impregnating island girls and acting like the child will come out looking exotic. My friend, that female is from any other West African country in origin. Na pikin wey resemble you go fall out.

Thermodynamics:
Why are most people here so pained, someone here showed an evidence that majority of the people in Barbados today are Igbos, I went to Wikipedia to confirm it myself and it's true, we are all humans with different gifts, the gifts comes no matter our tribe or race, any tribe can produce a genius, maybe Lil wayne is a Yoruba man, who knows.

Rihanna's mother probably knew her history that was why she told Rihanna that she is Igbo.
Any tribe can produce a talented person, we just use tribe and religion to divide ourselves, we are all the same, you know how I know ? We all look alike and think alike, If an Igbo man tells you that his name is Ademola, you would think that he is a Yoruba man, we are all humans and that's all. That's the truth.
Here is the proof, scroll down and click on dispersal
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igbo_people_in_the_Atlantic_slave_trade

According to Wikipedia, the people from Barbados are mostly of Igbo decendant, deniaing it won't change their history, the truth will always remain the truth, wether you like it or not.
The majority of slaves taken to Barbados were from the Bight of Biafra (Igbo, Efik, and Ibibio).

Shut up, Rihanna is not Eboe, shameless attache-by-force people. Point us to where Rihanna made such interview or claim. Ibibios, Efiks, Ewes, Fons etc were also taken to Barbados in droves.
