come linda.. God promised Abraham that he would be the father of many nations..and that his descendants will be like the sands on a desert.. so yes igbos might just be Jews.. That probly would explain why a majority of us are light skinned.Also the case in the UK whr an Igbo family gave birth to a white child...
kai.......!! Al na wash. Xo una wan claim jews bcoz una god fada ojukwu dn kpai abi? Una neva see any tin......we go face any calamity wea bfal 9ja. Abi una wan tke style form biafra again? Na eshemomoh type diz
To be honest faith has nothing to do with race, nation or creed. Would you be surprised to find a Caucasian who believes he's ancestors were Muslims? If they want to be Jews i say let them, its whatever makes u sleep at night.
@ the case in d UK where an igbo family gave birth to a white child...Hmmm, make dem do DNA test o, the wife don dey shag one oyinbo be dat Ooº°˚˚°º0 , no gawk urself.
Tho am nt ibo! I studied history and yes if u google ibo u wld see dey r decendants of jews! Its no lie! Pls u al google is ur frnd use it2 educate urslves. U sef Linda u suppose knw nah!
Anonymous 10:10 am first of all I'm pretty sure the caption reads "some Igbos" but obviously little clarifications like that don't matter to pathological Igbo haters like you. Secondly how does Judaism bring money biko? Religion is not restricted to country or tribe - otherwise you would hardly have Hausa Christians or Yoruba Muslims. Also, I remember reading somewhere that there actually is a historical / anthropological link between Jew and Igbos so this is probably where all of this is coming from. Pick up a book from time to time please or use the internet for something other than coming on LIB to abuse Igbo people, and yes I'm Igbo and Christian. You say being Jewish is not a great achievement. If a non-Christian read your comment I'm pretty sure they would decide the same about Christianity based on the kind of followers it is producing.
There are jews in ethopia. They are jews because they practise judaism. They have never for once come out to say they are real jews. There are arab muslims who are jews by intermarriage and all. But a real jew is caucasian. This is quite an insult that from no where a tribe can claim that they are jews too. The israelites been who they are will never, I mean never ever recognise the ibos as jews. In africa everybody know where they came from, yorubas have a strong heritage which spread accross nigeria to togo, benin, senegal, including the blacks in cuba, argentina, brazil, haiti, jamaica, barbados etc even recognise oduduwa more than d yorubas in nigeria. they trace their origin back to yoruba and oduduwa cus they still bear those yoruba names, so the igbos should have an origin, don't just open ur mouth to say ure a jew. It will be more embarrasing if the jews disclaim ur theory!
Nigerians need to educate themselves. Igbos are descendants of Jews! This is a classic example of a 'post fail'.....Linda, before you publish a post, be thorough with your research!!
Na waooooh, hmmmmm Naija, never underestimate the survival capabilities of a Nigerian...more so an IGBO man. The New Rabbi only discovered a niche in the market and wants to capitalize on it. its hammer time!
There are lots of ignorant people on this your blog Linda. History has it 'na ndi igbo siri n'agburu ndi Jew puta'.. We have books, but we don't read. Learn to educate yourselves people. Cee has spoken
@ boroje who wrote history? and who made google? You as an history student as claim can you pls define history to me? And can you remember what the sources of history are? Incase you don't let me lecture you! The first source of histoey are oral tradition passed from one generation to another which are most likely to be over cooked or undone!so and if am not mistaken history has a lot of version that has lead to konw where and the only thing Nigeria history got is no history cos as siad we only have our mouth in our chect running like tape!sorry to say these. Nigeria got no history Jews or not all NA fabu!!!
That's not true. Its not a claim. Its a fact. Go to Brazil yourself and find out. On the other hand go to Israel and say Igbo's are jews if you won't be killed.
Claimers of life. Hahahaha because you people know Jews rule the world you want to claim. Caucasian jews will embarrass your existence. Go and try yourselves.
Just because its on the internet doesn't mean its acurate! Common sense is also your friend eh! Don't go and sit on wikipedia learning rubbish. Basically their logic is they were causasian isrealites that somehow lost their way and made it to Nigeria??? Not America o.. Nigeria.. Wooooooow. Never heard something more stupid in my entire lyf. Please HISTORY is your friend.
It's common knowledge that the first Jews were actually of African heritage not middle eastern. Clearly Linda some of your readers need to take some history lessons.
Nigerians! Always so quick to judge, no research, you just assume things. Just read one comment: "don't look like Igbos". What does an Igbo person look like? And this is why Nigeria will continue to be the country that it is. Backward.
am not surprise at ur dummy baseless comment, am sure u re from that most horrible tribe known as yoruba.....why won't u think with ur ass when ur brain is really filled with ofe mmanu?! Meanwhile, i dnt really subscribe to this theory anyway, its somehow confusing.
shurrup! Brazillians dnt even knw dat there's any tribe like yoruba. y'all yorubas, ur descendants re frm iraq...go recheck very well, am sure u ave d same blood flowin in ur vains....ndi ofe mmanu!
In ethipia there is the falasha tribe who claim to have jewish root and who also practice a religion with a strong semblance with judaism, the israeli government took them over to israel but many jewish scholars argued that the falasha's weren't "jewish" enough so that had to go through the jewish rites of conversion, but today the falasha or ethiopian jews are in israel even though racism is their biggest problem,
every tribe in nigeria can say anything about thier tribe,didnt yoruba people told nigerians that oduduwa fall from heaven? and some people believe them,but oba benin later said that the founder of ile ife was a benin prince who was banished from benin for having sex with one of obas wife, so should i believe the oba or the yorubas people who said oduduwa fall from heaven?i dont know the reason why some people re angry cus igbo people claimd to come from isreal afterall the world started from there ,u people re not angry that oduduwa fall from heaven but ur bitter that igbos re from isreal
I really do not know why some Yoruba are always quick to point out how they have strong heritage with Cuba, Brazil, oduduwa bra bra bra! But fail to acknowledge other peoples heritage?
9% percent of Igbo culture are pure Jewish culture. the festival of harvest (New yam festival), The gleaning (Ukpa or Akpa), The marriage rite, etc. If you are a real Igbo person who understands Igbo culture and Jewish culture, you would not need any history to tell you they are strongly related.
Igbo people's visual art, music and dance forms, as well as their attire, cuisine and language dialects are closely related to that of the Jewish.
Outreach to Nigerian Jews by the wider Jewish world community gained official status in 1995–97, when Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin sent a team to Nigeria in search of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel.
Western rabbis and educators such as Rabbi Howard Gorin have visited the community at times and Jewish communities in the West support those in Nigeria by sending books, computers, and religious articles.
I went for a Jewish wedding last year in Abuja...... They were ibos infact they r from Anambra state and they come from dsame village as me ..... I was shocked cos i never knew they existed in Nigeria not to even talk of were I'm from.....I am Anglican tho.... It was a nice wedding n a different experience.....

You are so dumb! I have so many brazillian and cuba friends on fb, they have never been to nigeria but they bear yoruba names. Just like that seyi said, many of them did not change to xtianity. They worship our yoruba Gods, obatala, ogun, yemoja and co. Some of their names are ifaseyi, ogunyemi, etc. Many of the blacks in south america and carribean still bear yoruba names. What do u say of asafa powell? Many of them like that!

This Linda is an out cast.i have continued to watch with keen interest on her unabated sabotage of the igbo race.the last time she posted about a group that declared Biafra,she ended the article by saying 'there was war the last time Biafra was declared' thus misleading all her readers.if truly she has learnt about where she is coming from,and not gotten carried away by flirting with yoruba men,she would have known that the massive killings of igbos led to the declaration of Biafra.i am not just a Biafran citizen,i am also a proud jew.
I remember being taught in school that folklore claims some Jews migrated to the Eastern part of Nigeria and settled. Although it wasnt called Nigeria when they 1st got here. This folklore explains why most Igbos were light skinned even before the slave masters got here. Most people have probably never heard this before. Blame it on the poor Nigerian education curriculum, we are never really well educated on our history. Too poor.
Jews, so bloody what? Those of you who think, or are deceiving yourselves, that you are Jews, does that put you 1st in line to the KINGDOM of GOD? If you like don't spend your energy in making your community and your country great but instead waste it by re-emerging yourselves. That's your bloody business.
Let's not fight make dis a tribal war kk,one najia! But the truth is worse Dan vinegar!igbos alwas hav somtin up dia sleeves.. Oh sorry didn't know I wrote dat!
these yorus always leave me in stiches,if sum1 want 2 associate themselves with jews,scandanavians or even martians,dat their own biz,if you dont like it,be civilised, leave it alone,but noooo , cuz they r igbo, there is a problem,recently a youruba posted d same tin on anoda blog,igbos didnt troll, no why?, we just cooler than y'all, p.s 4 all d earlier dimwits,the original jews were not caucasian, please read books,
Igbos will claim to be anything, just for the MONEY and fame attached. They are just light-skinned cos of the centuries of inter-banging with the white colonialists. If they like, they can claim to be Russians.
Listen all u yoruba (ofemanu peep)whether u like it or not historically ibos are descendants of jewish origin,while yorubas are descendants of Egypt n hausa have their descent frm sudan!I have my facts 2 buttress my points!so all u that are jealous should go n hug tranformer!

Anon 11:28. When we say u people are illiterates, u complain! Fyi, the black brazillians are 80% yorubas. They worship our own yoruba gods and bear yoruba names. Infact the south americans, and some part of the carribeans still trace their origin to yorubas. Make ur research, sorry u can't research! Ure an illiterate

What hole did this one come out from?! Caucasian Jews my ass!! What he/she is saying is that you need to educate yourselves. Don't come here and talk out of your butt crack if you know nothing! There are Jews in Nigeria... Instead of critizing the possibility, embrace it! Read and learn! Nigeria doesn't end with tribes! There are various religions practiced there too!
AnonymousNovember 22, 2012 1:15 PM Sir/Ma I want to read like you suggest. So post a damn link already. Intelligent talk without facts to back it up? Take several seats already. Talking about reading shit up? Where's the link?
Books written in igbo? We want to read english abeg. Name these books let's buy from amazon inside of spitting shit out of your asses. Oral tradition barely covers anything anymore. Ask the red indians.
*Linda. This is 2012. There's something call DNA. The days of shouting each other down is over. With DNA testing, the answer is either yes or know. Google or wikipedis is someones opinion which may be wright or wrong.
My dear you're talking TRASH! Linda hasn't sabotaged anything. If you want to educate people do so with details and facts. And trust me your 'education' won't be welcome here after saying rubbish like "if truly she has learnt about where she is coming from,and not gotten carried away by flirting with yoruba men". That has nullified all forms of any arguement you have. You're an ethnicist with particular grievances with the Yoruba ethnic group so shutup. Don't leave silly comments here.
Oral Tradition(Folklore) is absolute rubbish without archaeological support/fact so sorry you have no point. Sponsor an archaeological dig or something, campaign for sponsorship at UNDP or something. Whatever you have to say bring facts to the table. That will be all.
AnonymousNovember 22, 2012 1:19 PM where are these facts you speak of? Yes we are ofe nmanu and our soups taste great unlike your soups that smells like farts. And yes your people are aje okuta ma mu omi, you eat stone without drinking water. How do u feel about name calling now? Dummy
d fact dat d yoruba tribe came from Brazil or Haiti or Cuba is not true. During d colonial era when slaves trade was booming captured yoruba slaves took along with them their culture and heritage so when slave trade ended alot could not come home and ended up in those countries u mentioned especially Haiti. So those people with yourba heritage u see over there actually came from here not d other wat round. As 4 our origin i remember during History classes in secondary we were thought dat d yourbas migrated from d middle-east precisely mecca during a religious war. Although d history we have in NIGERIA is wat we were given by OUR colonial masters not we have. Wat we are was neva documented.
I mean its irritating how much people hate Igbos! Its just pathetic! so many hateful comments all coming from people who say they are jews. How the thing take they bother you if dem talk say them be Jews.
any anthropologist will put this matter to rest in less than 5 sentences
but Nigerians sef, why is it strive to be foreigner but no foreigner wants to be Nigerian. Has any of these lot been adopted by a judaic jewish family,do they understand their mantra and general sentiment towards people of color? Well i have and it's not so cool to say the least. #shun self hate
I have found that Christians who are deep into the Bible are so desperate to be one of "God's chosen people". It just cannot get to them that Jews wrote their own stores, and who would not write that they are better than others. Jews enslaved and created wars with others to take over their lands, women, goods and just about anything they saw someone else with that they desired. Then they wrote that they were "God's chosen people" to justify their wrong doings.
Now we have all kinds of people, black people included, brainwashed by these lies. They cannot believe that they themselves are enough, that God already lives in them. They need to be Jews too to belong. So damn sad!
Just cos its online doesn't make it true,any cheap popularity seeking igbo freak can post it! Jews or not who gives a rat_ass!doesn't change d fact I am idling on my bed blogging on Linda ikeji's....next topic pls.
I don't know why people comment on every topic, expecially when they lack knowlege of a given topic. Even if you must comment, must you be sentimental about it. Why not tackle the topic without being tribalistic.This Igbo tribe must be powerful and strong oo.People spend their precious time talking about the tribe than anyother tribe I know. Well except 4 the boko tribe. Igbo kwenuuuuuuuu!
Linda, for the love of God, find a way of stopping all these tribalistic and violent comments from rolling in on your blog. It doesnt say well of you. Nigerians are just too bloody tribalistic. May God help us.
I dont know the problem with my igbo people, if any anonymous made an hatred comments, does that mean that person must be from yoruba tribe biko? there are so many tribes from Nigeria aside from the known ones ( Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba, Efik etc). Abeg spare me ur ignoramus comment sometimes and try to accomodate each other.
Bonario should not be crucified by anybody for airing his views, he is entitled to his opinion and he can use his precious time for what he likes.
If Igbo people like, they can claim Chinko, it is non of everybody's business.
Yorubas did not originate from brazil nor carribeans. It's the other way around. These people are descendants of slaves from West Africa (Nigeria, Benin, etc) that form majority of Brazil and carribean today who are stuck to the names. Do your history first and don't rant your ignorant yoruba talks here. You guys claim to have fallen from the sky.It's more outrageous than Igbos that claim to migrate from the Jews.By the way, Bonario my Igbo brother, I love you to bits. Keep representing. Nothing do you! I di ok!
FIRST, YOU CAN BE SUBSCRIBED TO jUDAISM AS A RELIGION BUT YOU CAN NEVER BE A JEW AS LONG AS YOUR MOTHER IS NOT A JEW. ON THE OTHER HAND, IF YOU LEAVE THE JUDAIC RELIGION AS A PERSON BORN BY A JEWISH WOMAN, YOU WILL NEVER BE CONSIDERED A JEW. THIS IS ANOTHER WAY OF EXPLOITING OPPORTUNITIES. THESE PEOPLE WILL NOT SEEM TO AMAZE ME WITH SUCH A CLAIM.
Wht a disgusting remark frm Seyi! For ya left mind u tink Y'obas ar d only tribe dat hv geographical spread outside 9ja? B4 u embarras yasef, d Y'obas dat ar found in dose South American countries u mentioned got dia courtesy of slave trade! U'l find many oda African tribes in dose countries. If d Ibos say dat ar Jewish dat is dia palava, so go concentrate on ya evolution/migration theory!
Igbo and Jews are more prosperous than the indigenes where they emegrate to They are hated and envied where they settle because they have superior standing when they compete with locals, this is why the Tivs, though brutally suppressed by the Hausa-Fulani , were more afraid of Igbo domination than Hausa domination and looted Igbo property and killed Igbo and fought alongside their Hausa overlords in the civil war. It is also why the minorities in the Niger Delta did not fully support Biafra despite the fact that they were also killed. They were resentful of Igbo participation in their public and economic sectors eg the documented resentment of Igbo fishermen who were more hardworking than Kalabari counterparts and this led to a discussion on eliminating Ndigbo from Delta. The Jews built Hollywood. The Igbo built Nollywood - probably the most successful privately run industry in Nigeria. There is strong evidence of Igbo link with Gad, one of the emigrants from Israel.
Igbo would cultivate this friendly relationship with Israel to increase trade and improve the employment situation. For the commenter that said that they shld be focused on making our country great, we are. We wuld build a great Biafran nation away from the backwoods that is Nigeria. Nigeria is not interested in the progress that Igbo participation can bring. We tried to and were killed for it. NEVER AGAIN.
Too much talk and showing off and all. You forgot to say that those yorubas in the americans were sold into slavery in large numbers by their yoruba brothers.
LMAO... Very funny, its like am watching cartoon (unreal). Any1 can make a documentary of anythn bt if they feel they are jews, then they shld leave Nigeria n go claim what rightfuly belong to them even dt will make food n money circulate round n we'll ve a better Nigeria.. We shldnt fight over this.
Eyah, so Yorubas come from Brazil, South American, Carribean? No wonder they are flirts. I mean the Yorubas can sleep with anything e.g dog, sheep, goat etc and still refer to them as brother Seun, Femi, Gbolahan. It's a pity they are sluts and sluts they will remain because they have multiple origins.
Ebeano, u'v got a well buttressed point to put dis ITK bigots to dia proper place in history. I hp dey'l learn to appreciate oda ppl oda dan dia tribesmen.
*scratching head* .. hmm, it makes sense after all. The inherent penchant for industry. The avid desire for money. The mode of celebrations and festivals. The inability to forge a united front. hmmm... But what about the reflex action to wear singlet, carry cutlass and dismember wife into pieces... Jews dey do dat one too?? No, na Mexicans dem bin get dat one from. So dey must be the last of d Jewicans - lol lol lol
Listen people, before Nigeria was formed,people came from different places and settled wherever suited them.. The land Niger area used to be a virgin land thousands of years back.. Now for some of you who knows nothing about what happened back then to come here and antagonise a tribe which has traced its origin to the jews is baffling.. You can't decide where a tribe must come from if you were not there @ its inception.. The best you can do is embrace history through careful research.
why yoruba re angry over this still baffles me,you people told us that your oduduwa drop from heaven we said we agree ,u people allso told us that ur obatala turn to water we said ok ,if abraham moses john the baptist did not drop from heaven i still wonder how oduduwa with tribal mark will drop down from heaven

@ the first commenter, your comment makes NO SENSE because Abraham was NOT A JEW, the jews are desendants of jacob, the father of the twelve tribes of Israel in which I don't recall ibos being among them. It's like they want to give real jews heart attack. Ibos should be satisfied with being just ibos instead of claiming to be something they are not to feel better about themselves. PS:The arabs are also descendants of Abraham and don't even call themselves jews, it's now ibos lon lon......lol. You guys can claim sha.
Linda, are you really an Igbo girl or a 'my mama told me I'm Igbo'? I find your comment sarcastic and insulting on the collective psyche of the Igbo people. Were you ever taught in History classes of the bronze pots with Jewish inscriptions excavated from archaelogical sites in Igboukwu? I guess not. Take a trip to the national museum and ask questions if you can't read. To those who jump at the mere mention of 'Igbo' without having an inkling of what is being discussed, I reserve my pity. Most of them can't even write good English. Did I expect them to reason well? They are all suffering from xenophobia!
Instead of wasting ya tym hia ranting carelessly, u hd beta go concentrate in developing yasef den ya community. Dat shd b ya preoccupation instead of posing like say u holy pass.
the igbos can do anything for money this guys are laughable.they can tell natanyahu to send them money and they should no forget that hamas are their next door neighbor, may be they will have to take cover under the iron dome
For all y'all wanting some material on this, try the site: http://igbofriendsofisrael.com/
For more, remember, google is your friend. There is so much material on this it is ridiculous.
For those homo habilises going again to chants of illiteracy, get an education to understand first what illiteracy means. No one doubts that a lot of slaves of Yoruba ancestry settled in other parts of the world still retain their pagan cultures. You can bask in that while we Igbo look to the future. While there is some ancestral link of the Igbo with Israel, we would stay predominantly Catholic and allow for religious freedom in Biafra. We would maintain strong diplomatic ties and support for Israel, and have special diplomatic relations with US and China while disallowing them from controlling our internal policy. We shall have diplomatic relations with the free world and give recognition to Somaliland. We would have relations with our southern neighbors that encourages free enterprise, democracy and respect for human rights. We would defend the interests of the Ikwerre even if they do not like the Igbo. We have common interests and identities. We would cultivate a strong military to defend our security. We would emphasize the development of air power to ensure safety and trade, and to keep the river Niger accessible to ships wanting to trade in Onitsha. We would not tolerate any blockage of the river Niger to trade. We would build industries that do not need government patronage. We would integrate our economy with the rest of the world. We would prosper leaving Nigeria behind and leading Africa forward. We are Biafrans, and God is with us. God bless Biafra.
i was taught in school that the igbos have a lot in common with the jews, when we were studying about the origin of the igbo pple, that they may have a jewish origin cus of some quite similar traditions,it s jst a theory though,nt proven.
Linda....some of your posts are suspect. One minute you post something on Uche Iwuji saying her life-long dream is to marry a Yoruba man, next you post something on Yvonne Ekwerre Vixen having a Yoruba alter-ego, now it's about Igbo Jew Converts (and your insinuation about what that means).
Are you trying to use Igbos to spark your blog ratings? Heh! I guess anti-Igbo tribalism sells.
lol everybody wants to be as far away from being black as possible y'all claim half this half that I'm just wondering if it makes y'all feel superior just cause of racial links to Jews/Caucasian it's sickening to say the least bashing each other for a race that wouldn't care less about you since you still black lol hehehe the white supremacist has clearly won#post my comment Linda I know how u operate*winks*

Jews are not Caucasian as real Jews are from the Middle East so pls check your facts so if Islam can come to Africa from the Middle East so can Judaism
The ignorance here is frightful Jesus was a Jew and most of you commenting are Christians so how did that happen? Pls anyone that wants to be Jewish can as any white man that wants to worship shongo can
One of my cousins had joined this group for a while there in the past. I never asked here why she left. I will make a note of asking here. I just thought they were weird
@seyi a real Jew is not Caucasian. It's just like saying real Moslems r from d Middle East. If u go by day logic then millions of people sat adopt Christianity r not real Christians. Although I understand u r questioning their claim of being descendants of Jews, still u can't say "real Jews r Caucasians"
What is the meaning of ofe manu? How does that describe a tribe? Because we use palm oil to cook?! I served in the East, in a village to be exact. Ibos use a lot of palm oil to cook. Because you pour uziza into the soup and it masks the oil? What about ofe aku which is pure palm oil? You Ibos don't see that but you open your big wide ibo mouths to call Yorubas ofe manu? The irony is quite disgusting. Please lets stop regarding ourselves by derogatory bunkum. Linda post my comment o cos I am very irritated right now.
Not that I'm supporting this but you all should know that life started in africa with the black man. Caucasians only came from the mutations of blacks who left the continent and wandered to other parts of the world.
So is it impossible then that Abraham was actually black and some of his decendants actually settled in the present day igbo land.
=)) "̮ ƗƗα ƗƗα ƗƗα ƗƗα "̮ =)) u jst showed ur stupid self! Read books it wld help if u dnt wnt2 use google I studied d history of d ibos! Its shows in their traits dt dey r related2 jews! Delegbo int'l!
Nigeria sha. I hail my country. This mutual suspicion hasn't and will not get us anywhere. Until we can come together as one people, we will not move forward. Yorubas originated from bulls, Igbos originated from snakes, Hausas originated from fish, the other tribes are there struggling for attention. All nonsense talk! Wherever and whatever we descended from, we are all in this geographic zone together. Lets just live and let live!

The only place u will find "very black" people is only in Africa and no where else.During slave trade a lot of blacks(Africans) were sold to the whites and when slave trade was abolished those slaves were allowed to settle in different parts of europe and especially America north and south respectively were their colonial masters had their farms which was also where these slaves worked. For the anonymous guy that said yourubas came from Brazil, you are 100% wrong u should rather say that most black Brazilians were ex youruba slaves that settled in Brazil and not the other way round.Every black person has his/her root in Africa.
yeah oral history that was passed from generation to generation suggested that their could be a possibility of such heritage, but i ask again wat is the fucking big deal? Some of these people chose to be jews because of this history, some chose it just because either was their are jews in Nigeria. it is d same way we have Christians, Muslims, ifa and amadioha worshipers. i really dont c y pipo r just insulting each other here because of wat some grown ass people decided to do with their lives.
ps. there are Yoruba people in Brazil and other parts of south america because of 1.the fall of ife kingdom 2.slavery Nigerian Yoruba's r not descendants of the people in Brazil it is the other way round.The Yoruba Brazilians can trace their root to Nigeria.
nigerians can be so ignorant! we all have a right to practice what ever religion that we want! so who are you to condem the next man that believes he is jewish! most of you claim to be christians yet you dont practice what your bible tells you. shame!
Brazil ke? Hahahahahaha! Una no go kill me wit laf. See as una wowo reach! Even baboon no go wan shit 4 una face. Yoruba n ur hate 4 igbos, hope it dosnt kill u o.

@ SEYI... Saying Caucasians are the real jews means you're GROSSLY uninformed. Try get some real education son and stop spreading this age long misinformation. The real jews are people of the Black race, the red indians and latino, most especial the African Americans whom the world call negros - Read Deut 28 VS 15 - end for more info. Rev 2 vs 9 too will shed more light on the identity of the real Israelites. Those Caucasians are imposters and liars, they are Khazarians and they coverted to Judaism during the babylonian captivity and occupied the holy land. They are the ones that helped sell the real israelite into slavery as prophesised in deut 28 VS 15 - End . Google on the people of Khazar and learn more. More than 90% of todays so called jews have no blood connection with the ancient israelites. They are Khazarians aka Edomite. This is the world best kept secret. I hope this helps in educating you son.
Ebeano, u'v got a well buttressed point to put dis ITK bigots to dia proper place in history. I hp dey'l learn to appreciate oda ppl oda dan dia tribe.
@ SEYI… Saying the real jews are Caucasians and calling the igbos names means you’re GROSSLY uninformed, so I’d suggest you take your misinformation else where. It very funny how you try to claim intellectual prowess in subject you know absolutely nothing about. For your info, The people of the black race are the true Israelite – (African Americans, Red Indians, Latino and a reasonable part of the people here in Africa) – Read Deut 28 VS 15 – End for more info and Rev 2 VS 9 for the real identity of this your so called true Israelite. Those people in Israel today have no blood connection with the ancient Israelite, they are KHAZARIANS, guess you’ve never heard the word before but I suggest you use google to educate yourself and learn more on how they came to occupy Is-Ra-El today. More than 90% today’s jews are Khazarians AKA Edomite and they converted to Judaism after the Babylonian captivity and came to occupy the holy land. They are also the people that helped sell the original Hebrew Israelite into slavery and usurped there culture and history as prophesied in Deut 28 VS 15 – End.
So in one world – They are IMPOSTERS. This is the worlds best kept secret. Hope this helps in educating you son, and the rest that comment on subjects they ignorant about.

God promised Abraham that he would be the father of many nations..and that his descendants will be like the sands on a desert.. so yes igbos might just be Jews.. That probly would explain why a majority of us are light skinned.Also the case in the UK whr an Igbo family gave birth to a white child...
Igbo are money hungry & will do anything to get money even to leave christianity to judaism
Pathetic . been jewish in today world is not a great achievment
I rather remain christian

To be honest faith has nothing to do with race, nation or creed. Would you be surprised to find a Caucasian who believes he's ancestors were Muslims? If they want to be Jews i say let them, its whatever makes u sleep at night.
Anon 10:08am by that explanation may people might be jews. They can prove it with DNA records. They did for a tribe in South Africa.

Anonymous 10:10 am first of all I'm pretty sure the caption reads "some Igbos" but obviously little clarifications like that don't matter to pathological Igbo haters like you. Secondly how does Judaism bring money biko? Religion is not restricted to country or tribe - otherwise you would hardly have Hausa Christians or Yoruba Muslims. Also, I remember reading somewhere that there actually is a historical / anthropological link between Jew and Igbos so this is probably where all of this is coming from. Pick up a book from time to time please or use the internet for something other than coming on LIB to abuse Igbo people, and yes I'm Igbo and Christian. You say being Jewish is not a great achievement. If a non-Christian read your comment I'm pretty sure they would decide the same about Christianity based on the kind of followers it is producing.
Mumu @boroje google is whose's frd,no be human being like u dey put thgz for der,if dey write lies u wlkd believe
There is no need to tlk thru ur ass u know, too early in d day for such bullshit.
There are jews in ethopia. They are jews because they practise judaism. They have never for once come out to say they are real jews. There are arab muslims who are jews by intermarriage and all. But a real jew is caucasian. This is quite an insult that from no where a tribe can claim that they are jews too. The israelites been who they are will never, I mean never ever recognise the ibos as jews. In africa everybody know where they came from, yorubas have a strong heritage which spread accross nigeria to togo, benin, senegal, including the blacks in cuba, argentina, brazil, haiti, jamaica, barbados etc even recognise oduduwa more than d yorubas in nigeria. they trace their origin back to yoruba and oduduwa cus they still bear those yoruba names, so the igbos should have an origin, don't just open ur mouth to say ure a jew. It will be more embarrasing if the jews disclaim ur theory!
Nigerians need to educate themselves. Igbos are descendants of Jews! This is a classic example of a 'post fail'.....Linda, before you publish a post, be thorough with your research!!

Na waooooh, hmmmmm Naija, never underestimate the survival capabilities of a Nigerian...more so an IGBO man.
The New Rabbi only discovered a niche in the market and wants to capitalize on it. its hammer time!
There are lots of ignorant people on this your blog Linda. History has it 'na ndi igbo siri n'agburu ndi Jew puta'.. We have books, but we don't read. Learn to educate yourselves people. Cee has spoken
look at what my follow igbos are commenting,hausa man they cast una and few igbos here are still casting themselves,Igbo lets try and be one UNITY.

@ boroje who wrote history? and who made google? You as an history student as claim can you pls define history to me? And can you remember what the sources of history are? Incase you don't let me lecture you! The first source of histoey are oral tradition passed from one generation to another which are most likely to be over cooked or undone!so and if am not mistaken history has a lot of version that has lead to konw where and the only thing Nigeria history got is no history cos as siad we only have our mouth in our chect running like tape!sorry to say these. Nigeria got no history Jews or not all NA fabu!!!
That's not true. Its not a claim. Its a fact. Go to Brazil yourself and find out. On the other hand go to Israel and say Igbo's are jews if you won't be killed.
Anthropological link? Please point us in the direction of this research.
Claimers of life. Hahahaha because you people know Jews rule the world you want to claim. Caucasian jews will embarrass your existence. Go and try yourselves.
LMAO this is true.
Just because its on the internet doesn't mean its acurate! Common sense is also your friend eh! Don't go and sit on wikipedia learning rubbish.
Basically their logic is they were causasian isrealites that somehow lost their way and made it to Nigeria??? Not America o.. Nigeria.. Wooooooow. Never heard something more stupid in my entire lyf. Please HISTORY is your friend.
It's common knowledge that the first Jews were actually of African heritage not middle eastern. Clearly Linda some of your readers need to take some history lessons.
Nigerians! Always so quick to judge, no research, you just assume things.
Just read one comment: "don't look like Igbos". What does an Igbo person look like? And this is why Nigeria will continue to be the country that it is. Backward.
am not surprise at ur dummy baseless comment, am sure u re from that most horrible tribe known as yoruba.....why won't u think with ur ass when ur brain is really filled with ofe mmanu?!
Meanwhile, i dnt really subscribe to this theory anyway, its somehow confusing.

why not.
So tai aboki 2 will claim arab 2
In ethipia there is the falasha tribe who claim to have jewish root and who also practice a religion with a strong semblance with judaism, the israeli government took them over to israel but many jewish scholars argued that the falasha's weren't "jewish" enough so that had to go through the jewish rites of conversion, but today the falasha or ethiopian jews are in israel even though racism is their biggest problem,
On the other hand, I say Jews are Igbos hahahahahahahaha. Does it still sound exotic? Oshi
Igbos thought they can do biz wth d jews,make de go rest,Edo suppose claim jews,nt d igbos.
every tribe in nigeria can say anything about thier tribe,didnt yoruba people told nigerians that oduduwa fall from heaven? and some people believe them,but oba benin later said that the founder of ile ife was a benin prince who was banished from benin for having sex with one of obas wife, so should i believe the oba or the yorubas people who said oduduwa fall from heaven?i dont know the reason why some people re angry cus igbo people claimd to come from isreal afterall the world started from there ,u people re not angry that oduduwa fall from heaven but ur bitter that igbos re from isreal
I really do not know why some Yoruba are always quick to point out how they have strong heritage with Cuba, Brazil, oduduwa bra bra bra! But fail to acknowledge other peoples heritage?
9% percent of Igbo culture are pure Jewish culture. the festival of harvest (New yam festival), The gleaning (Ukpa or Akpa), The marriage rite, etc. If you are a real Igbo person who understands Igbo culture and Jewish culture, you would not need any history to tell you they are strongly related.
Igbo people's visual art, music and dance forms, as well as their attire, cuisine and language dialects are closely related to that of the Jewish.
Outreach to Nigerian Jews by the wider Jewish world community gained official status in 1995–97, when Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin sent a team to Nigeria in search of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel.
Western rabbis and educators such as Rabbi Howard Gorin have visited the community at times and Jewish communities in the West support those in Nigeria by sending books, computers, and religious articles.
I went for a Jewish wedding last year in Abuja...... They were ibos infact they r from Anambra state and they come from dsame village as me ..... I was shocked cos i never knew they existed in Nigeria not to even talk of were I'm from.....I am Anglican tho.... It was a nice wedding n a different experience.....

This Linda is an out cast.i have continued to watch with keen interest on her unabated sabotage of the igbo race.the last time she posted about a group that declared Biafra,she ended the article by saying 'there was war the last time Biafra was declared' thus misleading all her readers.if truly she has learnt about where she is coming from,and not gotten carried away by flirting with yoruba men,she would have known that the massive killings of igbos led to the declaration of Biafra.i am not just a Biafran citizen,i am also a proud jew.
C'Mon majority of us here went to uni n we studied nigeria's people and culture. Seriously, it's not a new story. So calm down
I remember being taught in school that folklore claims some Jews migrated to the Eastern part of Nigeria and settled. Although it wasnt called Nigeria when they 1st got here. This folklore explains why most Igbos were light skinned even before the slave masters got here.
Most people have probably never heard this before. Blame it on the poor Nigerian education curriculum, we are never really well educated on our history. Too poor.
Jews, so bloody what? Those of you who think, or are deceiving yourselves, that you are Jews, does that put you 1st in line to the KINGDOM of GOD? If you like don't spend your energy in making your community and your country great but instead waste it by re-emerging yourselves. That's your bloody business.

My dear you're talking TRASH! Linda hasn't sabotaged anything. If you want to educate people do so with details and facts. And trust me your 'education' won't be welcome here after saying rubbish like "if truly she has learnt about where she is coming from,and not gotten carried away by flirting with yoruba men". That has nullified all forms of any arguement you have. You're an ethnicist with particular grievances with the Yoruba ethnic group so shutup. Don't leave silly comments here.
Oral Tradition(Folklore) is absolute rubbish without archaeological support/fact so sorry you have no point. Sponsor an archaeological dig or something, campaign for sponsorship at UNDP or something. Whatever you have to say bring facts to the table. That will be all.

You all amaze me, one link I never see since una start to comment. Just post links to the trash you read. Its that simple really.
d fact dat d yoruba tribe came from Brazil or Haiti or Cuba is not true. During d colonial era when slaves trade was booming captured yoruba slaves took along with them their culture and heritage so when slave trade ended alot could not come home and ended up in those countries u mentioned especially Haiti. So those people with yourba heritage u see over there actually came from here not d other wat round.
As 4 our origin i remember during History classes in secondary we were thought dat d yourbas migrated from d middle-east precisely mecca during a religious war.
Although d history we have in NIGERIA is wat we were given by OUR colonial masters not we have. Wat we are was neva documented.
My boyfriend is Igbo amd he is Jew..been Jew from birth..so yes quite some igbos are Jews..
I mean its irritating how much people hate Igbos! Its just pathetic! so many hateful comments all coming from people who say they are jews. How the thing take they bother you if dem talk say them be Jews.
Igbo haters get a life!
any anthropologist will put this matter to rest in less than 5 sentences
but Nigerians sef, why is it strive to be foreigner but no foreigner wants to be Nigerian. Has any of these lot been adopted by a judaic jewish family,do they understand their mantra and general sentiment towards people of color? Well i have and it's not so cool to say the least.
#shun self hate
I have found that Christians who are deep into the Bible are so desperate to be one of "God's chosen people". It just cannot get to them that Jews wrote their own stores, and who would not write that they are better than others. Jews enslaved and created wars with others to take over their lands, women, goods and just about anything they saw someone else with that they desired. Then they wrote that they were "God's chosen people" to justify their wrong doings.
Now we have all kinds of people, black people included, brainwashed by these lies. They cannot believe that they themselves are enough, that God already lives in them. They need to be Jews too to belong. So damn sad!

I don't know why people comment on every topic, expecially when they lack knowlege of a given topic. Even if you must comment, must you be sentimental about it. Why not tackle the topic without being tribalistic.This Igbo tribe must be powerful and strong oo.People spend their precious time talking about the tribe than anyother tribe I know. Well except 4 the boko tribe. Igbo kwenuuuuuuuu!

Abeg spare me ur ignoramus comment sometimes and try to accomodate each other.
Bonario should not be crucified by anybody for airing his views, he is entitled to his opinion and he can use his precious time for what he likes.

Can any one tell me WHERE 419 STARTED?...The Jews will not be easy MUGU...May be BOKO HARAM migrated from Saudi Arabia?????
Linda am igbo jew, not a joke
Yorubas did not originate from brazil nor carribeans. It's the other way around. These people are descendants of slaves from West Africa (Nigeria, Benin, etc) that form majority of Brazil and carribean today who are stuck to the names. Do your history first and don't rant your ignorant yoruba talks here. You guys claim to have fallen from the sky.It's more outrageous than Igbos that claim to migrate from the Jews.By the way, Bonario my Igbo brother, I love you to bits. Keep representing. Nothing do you! I di ok!
FIRST, YOU CAN BE SUBSCRIBED TO jUDAISM AS A RELIGION BUT YOU CAN NEVER BE A JEW AS LONG AS YOUR MOTHER IS NOT A JEW. ON THE OTHER HAND, IF YOU LEAVE THE JUDAIC RELIGION AS A PERSON BORN BY A JEWISH WOMAN, YOU WILL NEVER BE CONSIDERED A JEW. THIS IS ANOTHER WAY OF EXPLOITING OPPORTUNITIES. THESE PEOPLE WILL NOT SEEM TO AMAZE ME WITH SUCH A CLAIM.
my uncle and relatives still practice judaism
is this not an offshoot of the 419 activities that is prevalent among the Igbos?..next thing they will introduce some dude to us and say he is God...

Igbo and Jews have a lot in common:
Igbo and Jews are more prosperous than the indigenes where they emegrate to
They are hated and envied where they settle because they have superior standing when they compete with locals, this is why the Tivs, though brutally suppressed by the Hausa-Fulani , were more afraid of Igbo domination than Hausa domination and looted Igbo property and killed Igbo and fought alongside their Hausa overlords in the civil war. It is also why the minorities in the Niger Delta did not fully support Biafra despite the fact that they were also killed. They were resentful of Igbo participation in their public and economic sectors eg the documented resentment of Igbo fishermen who were more hardworking than Kalabari counterparts and this led to a discussion on eliminating Ndigbo from Delta.
The Jews built Hollywood. The Igbo built Nollywood - probably the most successful privately run industry in Nigeria.
There is strong evidence of Igbo link with Gad, one of the emigrants from Israel.
Igbo would cultivate this friendly relationship with Israel to increase trade and improve the employment situation. For the commenter that said that they shld be focused on making our country great, we are. We wuld build a great Biafran nation away from the backwoods that is Nigeria. Nigeria is not interested in the progress that Igbo participation can bring. We tried to and were killed for it. NEVER AGAIN.
Too much talk and showing off and all. You forgot to say that those yorubas in the americans were sold into slavery in large numbers by their yoruba brothers.
Sometimes I just like to come on here to read the sharp, stupid, sarcastic, funny, hilarious ... comments here and laugh out loud

We shldnt fight over this.
Useless comment frm a confused fellow!
Eyah, so Yorubas come from Brazil, South American, Carribean? No wonder they are flirts. I mean the Yorubas can sleep with anything e.g dog, sheep, goat etc and still refer to them as brother Seun, Femi, Gbolahan. It's a pity they are sluts and sluts they will remain because they have multiple origins.
I didn't know Yorubas come from different places. Little wonder they are unstable in everything. They hardly stick to one man or woman.

The inherent penchant for industry.
The avid desire for money.
The mode of celebrations and festivals.
The inability to forge a united front.
hmmm...
But what about the reflex action to wear singlet, carry cutlass and dismember wife into pieces... Jews dey do dat one too??

The are truly A missing Jews make not available in our arena,a claim relationships
Give your lives Christ Y'all.
sheer nonsense!!
Listen people, before Nigeria was formed,people came from different places and settled wherever suited them.. The land Niger area used to be a virgin land thousands of years back.. Now for some of you who knows nothing about what happened back then to come here and antagonise a tribe which has traced its origin to the jews is baffling.. You can't decide where a tribe must come from if you were not there @ its inception.. The best you can do is embrace history through careful research.
Cee has spoken
why yoruba re angry over this still baffles me,you people told us that your oduduwa drop from heaven we said we agree ,u people allso told us that ur obatala turn to water we said ok ,if abraham moses john the baptist did not drop from heaven i still wonder how oduduwa with tribal mark will drop down from heaven

@ the first commenter, your comment makes NO SENSE because Abraham was NOT A JEW, the jews are desendants of jacob, the father of the twelve tribes of Israel in which I don't recall ibos being among them. It's like they want to give real jews heart attack. Ibos should be satisfied with being just ibos instead of claiming to be something they are not to feel better about themselves.
PS:The arabs are also descendants of Abraham and don't even call themselves jews, it's now ibos lon lon......lol. You guys can claim sha.
lol.........Igbo people with money.
Linda, are you really an Igbo girl or a 'my mama told me I'm Igbo'? I find your comment sarcastic and insulting on the collective psyche of the Igbo people.
Were you ever taught in History classes of the bronze pots with Jewish inscriptions excavated from archaelogical sites in Igboukwu? I guess not. Take a trip to the national museum and ask questions if you can't read.
To those who jump at the mere mention of 'Igbo' without having an inkling of what is being discussed, I reserve my pity. Most of them can't even write good English. Did I expect them to reason well? They are all suffering from xenophobia!
Instead of wasting ya tym hia ranting carelessly, u hd beta go concentrate in developing yasef den ya community. Dat shd b ya preoccupation instead of posing like say u holy pass.
the igbos can do anything for money this guys are laughable.they can tell natanyahu to send them money and they should no forget that hamas are their next door neighbor, may be they will have to take cover under the iron dome
You don finished for there . Where other nigerians come come from now? I want to know i beg you.
Disgruntled element of a diabolic tribe!
For all y'all wanting some material on this, try the site:
http://igbofriendsofisrael.com/
For more, remember, google is your friend. There is so much material on this it is ridiculous.
For those homo habilises going again to chants of illiteracy, get an education to understand first what illiteracy means. No one doubts that a lot of slaves of Yoruba ancestry settled in other parts of the world still retain their pagan cultures. You can bask in that while we Igbo look to the future. While there is some ancestral link of the Igbo with Israel, we would stay predominantly Catholic and allow for religious freedom in Biafra. We would maintain strong diplomatic ties and support for Israel, and have special diplomatic relations with US and China while disallowing them from controlling our internal policy. We shall have diplomatic relations with the free world and give recognition to Somaliland. We would have relations with our southern neighbors that encourages free enterprise, democracy and respect for human rights. We would defend the interests of the Ikwerre even if they do not like the Igbo. We have common interests and identities.
We would cultivate a strong military to defend our security. We would emphasize the development of air power to ensure safety and trade, and to keep the river Niger accessible to ships wanting to trade in Onitsha. We would not tolerate any blockage of the river Niger to trade. We would build industries that do not need government patronage. We would integrate our economy with the rest of the world. We would prosper leaving Nigeria behind and leading Africa forward.
We are Biafrans, and God is with us. God bless Biafra.
i was taught in school that the igbos have a lot in common with the jews, when we were studying about the origin of the igbo pple, that they may have a jewish origin cus of some quite similar traditions,it s jst a theory though,nt proven.
U re being 2 obvious,wt did igbo pple eva do 2 u? crazy hater,
U re being 2 obvious,wt did igbo pple eva do 2 u? crazy hater,
everything is so cool abt been igbo tho my dad is benin.i still love my igbo side...igbo is sexy
lol im edo but i think u should zip it...team igbo
jealous hoodrat..agbero is d main occupation of ur tribe
Linda....some of your posts are suspect. One minute you post something on Uche Iwuji saying her life-long dream is to marry a Yoruba man, next you post something on Yvonne Ekwerre Vixen having a Yoruba alter-ego, now it's about Igbo Jew Converts (and your insinuation about what that means).
Are you trying to use Igbos to spark your blog ratings? Heh! I guess anti-Igbo tribalism sells.
lol jealousy oshi. wen u lot will be speaking ur language nko? allow him to speak his language jare.
lol everybody wants to be as far away from being black as possible y'all claim half this half that I'm just wondering if it makes y'all feel superior just cause of racial links to Jews/Caucasian it's sickening to say the least bashing each other for a race that wouldn't care less about you since you still black lol hehehe the white supremacist has clearly won#post my comment Linda I know how u operate*winks*
leave igbos alone juh...everytime dat oil tribe wants to feel superior..mtcheww
I go still prefer to have jewish origin than being a decendant of an alien who came down from a UFO via a rope (Oduduwa).....wutsaaaap aliens in the house!!!!!!!!!!

U just showed every one that u r imbesilic....no wonder every one ignored ur insane comment...banalawo like u
Jews are not Caucasian as real Jews are from the Middle East so pls check your facts so if Islam can come to Africa from the Middle East so can Judaism
Some Nigerians !!freaking clowns
AnonymousNovember 22, 2012 2:25 PM
U r a fool already...go to dustbin already....
The ignorance here is frightful Jesus was a Jew and most of you commenting are Christians so how did that happen? Pls anyone that wants to be Jewish can as any white man that wants to worship shongo can
The Yoruba's are the Jews of Nigeria. Yes Yes Yes!!!
My dick is jewish! Got my first fuck at 12 and it was my Barmitzvah!!
this i have heard more than a few times....heard the igbo tribe stemmed from the hebrews
One of my cousins had joined this group for a while there in the past. I never asked here why she left. I will make a note of asking here. I just thought they were weird
All of us are children of Abraham
@seyi a real Jew is not Caucasian. It's just like saying real Moslems r from d Middle East. If u go by day logic then millions of people sat adopt Christianity r not real Christians. Although I understand u r questioning their claim of being descendants of Jews, still u can't say "real Jews r Caucasians"
What is the meaning of ofe manu? How does that describe a tribe? Because we use palm oil to cook?! I served in the East, in a village to be exact. Ibos use a lot of palm oil to cook. Because you pour uziza into the soup and it masks the oil? What about ofe aku which is pure palm oil? You Ibos don't see that but you open your big wide ibo mouths to call Yorubas ofe manu? The irony is quite disgusting.
Please lets stop regarding ourselves by derogatory bunkum.
Linda post my comment o cos I am very irritated right now.
Not that I'm supporting this but you all should know that life started in africa with the black man. Caucasians only came from the mutations of blacks who left the continent and wandered to other parts of the world.
So is it impossible then that Abraham was actually black and some of his decendants actually settled in the present day igbo land.
=)) "̮ ƗƗα ƗƗα ƗƗα ƗƗα "̮ =)) u jst showed ur stupid self! Read books it wld help if u dnt wnt2 use google I studied d history of d ibos! Its shows in their traits dt dey r related2 jews! Delegbo int'l!
Nigeria sha. I hail my country. This mutual suspicion hasn't and will not get us anywhere. Until we can come together as one people, we will not move forward. Yorubas originated from bulls, Igbos originated from snakes, Hausas originated from fish, the other tribes are there struggling for attention. All nonsense talk! Wherever and whatever we descended from, we are all in this geographic zone together. Lets just live and let live!

Tank u pls educate dem! Am happy sum1 is makn sense
U see! Oya al u arsy pple come and show ur ignorance full blown!
Thank u oh! Google , Books, wikipedia anytn wld help u al condemnin me 4ur ignorance! God bless u!
Thank you alter Ego! God bless u oh! If dey read dey wnt b so vicious attackn others
The only place u will find "very black" people is only in Africa and no where else.During slave trade a lot of blacks(Africans) were sold to the whites and when slave trade was abolished those slaves were allowed to settle in different parts of europe and especially America north and south respectively were their colonial masters had their farms which was also where these slaves worked. For the anonymous guy that said yourubas came from Brazil, you are 100% wrong u should rather say that most black Brazilians were ex youruba slaves that settled in Brazil and not the other way round.Every black person has his/her root in Africa.
yeah oral history that was passed from generation to generation suggested that their could be a possibility of such heritage, but i ask again wat is the fucking big deal? Some of these people chose to be jews because of this history, some chose it just because either was their are jews in Nigeria. it is d same way we have Christians, Muslims, ifa and amadioha worshipers. i really dont c y pipo r just insulting each other here because of wat some grown ass people decided to do with their lives.
ps. there are Yoruba people in Brazil and other parts of south america because of
1.the fall of ife kingdom
2.slavery
Nigerian Yoruba's r not descendants of the people in Brazil it is the other way round.The Yoruba Brazilians can trace their root to Nigeria.
Poverty dey cause sometin o!!!
nigerians can be so ignorant! we all have a right to practice what ever religion that we want! so who are you to condem the next man that believes he is jewish! most of you claim to be christians yet you dont practice what your bible tells you. shame!
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahaha!!! See beefing,just cos igbos 're Jews!
Brazil ke? Hahahahahaha! Una no go kill me wit laf. See as una wowo reach! Even baboon no go wan shit 4 una face. Yoruba n ur hate 4 igbos, hope it dosnt kill u o. Am no igbo but sumtims i wonder.....y is it dat soo many tribes are against dem? And y is it dat soo any nations are against isreal? Simpl..cos dey r God's chosen peopl. Wen God destroyd d tower of babilon, it is riten dat sum tribes of isreal went as far as west africa a place called abia. My mum is frm abia n every one in her family has traits of whites. Wit difrnt colors of eyes n hair. And dey are not albinos niedr do dey have white fathers. I my slf have gray eyes. My dad is yoruba n very dak. So if dese peopl say dia 4fathers are jews, let dem be. U dont have to bite ur heads off bcos of dat.p.s it isnt abut religion. Y are u condermin d jews? Isnt dat wer christianity brok frm? Even Jesus is a jew,Abraham is also jewish so y conderm ur own faith?
Stupid comment frm a descent of an adulterous tribe!
This has got to be one of the most ludicrous documentaries of all time. It should be a comedy short.
Anon 1:52PM, which 1 sounds stupid & a product of illiteracy - d Ibos claiming to hv originatd frm d Jews or d Yorubas claiming Oduduwa fell frm heaven?
Instead of wasting ya tym hia ranting carelessly, u hd beta go concentrate in developing yasef den ya community. Dat shd hv bn ya preoccupation instead of posing like say u holy pass.
Anon 2:33PM, u cn only b a real descendant of d acclaimed adulterer in d Benin Oba's historical analysis dat's y u'r hyper-ranting. Go jump into d lagoon if u can't tk wht Anon 1:04PM hs stated. Rubbish!
LMAO dat u must hv originatd frm a terrorist tribe in d middle east!
igbos will not kill me. and i refused to die of laughter.
@ SEYI... Saying Caucasians are the real jews means you're GROSSLY uninformed. Try get some real education son and stop spreading this age long misinformation. The real jews are people of the Black race, the red indians and latino, most especial the African Americans whom the world call negros - Read Deut 28 VS 15 - end for more info. Rev 2 vs 9 too will shed more light on the identity of the real Israelites. Those Caucasians are imposters and liars, they are Khazarians and they coverted to Judaism during the babylonian captivity and occupied the holy land. They are the ones that helped sell the real israelite into slavery as prophesised in deut 28 VS 15 - End . Google on the people of Khazar and learn more. More than 90% of todays so called jews have no blood connection with the ancient israelites. They are Khazarians aka Edomite. This is the world best kept secret. I hope this helps in educating you son.
With love,
Rabbi
U need to go back to Primary one. Ur errors are unbearable. Ewww #smh#. Teacher teach us nonsense.
Nonsense comment frm a demented being!
Ebeano, u'v got a well buttressed point to put dis ITK bigots to dia proper place in history. I hp dey'l learn to appreciate oda ppl oda dan dia tribe.
@ SEYI… Saying the real jews are Caucasians and calling the igbos names means you’re GROSSLY uninformed, so I’d suggest you take your misinformation else where. It very funny how you try to claim intellectual prowess in subject you know absolutely nothing about. For your info, The people of the black race are the true Israelite – (African Americans, Red Indians, Latino and a reasonable part of the people here in Africa) – Read Deut 28 VS 15 – End for more info and Rev 2 VS 9 for the real identity of this your so called true Israelite. Those people in Israel today have no blood connection with the ancient Israelite, they are KHAZARIANS, guess you’ve never heard the word before but I suggest you use google to educate yourself and learn more on how they came to occupy Is-Ra-El today. More than 90% today’s jews are Khazarians AKA Edomite and they converted to Judaism after the Babylonian captivity and came to occupy the holy land. They are also the people that helped sell the original Hebrew Israelite into slavery and usurped there culture and history as prophesied in Deut 28 VS 15 – End.
So in one world – They are IMPOSTERS. This is the worlds best kept secret. Hope this helps in educating you son, and the rest that comment on subjects they ignorant about.
One Love,
Rabbi
Wht a disgusting remark frm Seyi! For ya left mind u tink Y'obas ar d only tribe dat hv geographical spread outside 9ja?
B4 u embarras yasef, d Y'obas dat ar found in dose South American countries u mentioned cn only gt dia courtesy of slave trade! U'l find many oda African tribes in dose countries.
If d Ibos say dat ar Jewish dat is dia palava, so go concentrate on ya evolution/migration theory frm heaven! Stupid set of ppl!
Only a banal mind like urs cn mk such useless comment. B reminded dat d issue concerning Biafra may soon turn u & ur generation to deranged ppl.
