The Igbo village is located in Staunton, Virginia, USA. According to one of the organizers Basil Okafor, "The State of Virginia and US government recognize the Igbos as one of the early slaves who settled in Virginia." See more photos after the cut...

ReplyDeleteI love this
ReplyDeleteSorry don't mean to intrude but what is there to love? We have igbos here we don't appreciate them as the igbos don't appreciate the hausas. Is it because it's in USA that's why you love it. Wonder why we can't gun for national peace and love our culture here in Nigeria instead of allowing colonial mentalism to raved us mad.
DeleteLovely concept
ReplyDeleteI love this
ReplyDeleteWowowow
ReplyDeleteIf not that we are reading if here, many wouldn't believe. Amazing. Phil 4:3

Why the negativity? And how does this copy anything. And even if it's true, who cares? Carry go jor. And just so U know, I am Yoruba.
DeleteWow, cool. TIMILEYIN BLESSING
ReplyDeleteIncredible
ReplyDeleteIgbos like to copy sha. How could igbos ever have been slaves in USA. Most of the slaves were taken off the western coast settlements and not from the interior villages. So only from areas like lagos or what is was then know, BADAGRY, dahomey, Gambia etc
ReplyDeleteHater.......
DeleteAno 10:21.... u need to go back to ur history book or better still ask ur father to tell u. If u ever saw d four walls of a university, u would ve learnt dat from GST. Arochukwu was d highest slave traders of all times.

DeleteSome of the things we want to see our diaspora do and not going to copy d western culture literally jst cuz they find themselves in the West.
ReplyDeleteThis is cultural sustainability..beautiful
ReplyDeleteI see! If this is an achievement in the right sense, No problem. But I really hope we can be recognized for something more positive than attaching the slave tag to this.

'The State of Virginia and US government recognize the Igbos as one of the early slaves who settled in Virginia'
ReplyDeleteI agree,Most black americans have the same mannerism,mentality & looks with igbo people!
Lol do u know a white American once told me lots of igbos look like black Americans .
DeleteThese igbo people ehn, they always want to take over other people's land wherever they find themselves. It's so bad. They are busy crying for biafra yet they are scattered all over Lagos, Abuja, kaduna, like ant. Mscheeeeew
ReplyDeleteBitter soul,go and die
Deleteode
DeleteHate is a bitter pill to taste. Please vomit it and be free.
DeleteU forgot to mention any where or land the Igbo man stays he brings life to it. Fool igbos are great and just sit down and watch out in ten years. We must be ur alpha lords soon. Or frustration will make Una vex and start killing us again abi. And would really want to see Una try it this time around. There is no stopping us. God heard our cries . Thankyou u God
DeleteThese igbo people will not cease to amaze me, with all the available resources and civilization, they willl still act and think backward. Of all tribes, they are still the ones that treat their widows like thrash, buries even children with massive request from family members, give out their children in marriage like it's their lotto card to winning plenty money. Imagine mud houses at this time and season of their life. Nonsense old culture.
ReplyDeleteGo and drink ijebu garri, hungri idiot. What else will come out of your hateful mouth? Oloshi omo.
DeleteNkita riforu gi nsi. Go nd get your facts right b4 spewing trash. Anuofia!
DeleteHow can u understand what u don't celebrate . They celebrate there culture and very enthusiastic in preserving it.
DeleteTalk about your culture first .
DeleteYoruba culture is the most babaric,you people practise human ritual and still use juju till date.not to talk of abobaku(the practise of burying your useles kings with another human being).
Babaric stone age tribe
I do regard your comments as senseless, until now I know they are indeed senseless and baseless for considerations.
DeleteYou don't have sense. Do you know about Yoruba village in London? If you don't please educate your mind.
DeleteHaba how old r u? try get sense Na ur disgracing your Yoruba race . What Tha fuck u typing ? Haba smh ur a disgrace to awo and all my educated Yoruba brothers . Pls try get sense

ReplyDeleteSlaves indeed! This people carry their aggressive low-life selves to the beautiful state of America? Tufia! I can never marry a biafran, God forbid bad thing! Smellos!
ReplyDeleteI'm igbo married to a yoruba man I adore with all of my being. Wen I read comments like this I'm sad because of the level of hate. You dnt have to condemn a culture cos of 1 person or a group of people. God bless you
DeleteU are looking for an attention stupid idiot. Am sure u are happy now getting one
DeleteWho wants to marry you ugly ape looking yorubas in the first place???
DeleteChildren of hatred.
It shall never be well with you
Anuofia
Please go and drink otapiapia and put an end to your miserable life
DeleteIt's these kind of comments that makes me extra cautious when a Yoruba person is around me! They are green snakes in green grass! At times I wonder if the cell components used in building their bodies are made up of solely envy!!!
DeleteYou cannot wish away culture of any race. Keep the flag flying.

◇◇◇◇◇◇ If ignorance is bliss, wipe the smile off my face ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇
Igbos are always everywhere. Una no dey sidon for una land? Why dont u like your fatherland?
ReplyDeleteWhat some Nigerians from the perfect tribes dont know is that their hatred for the other imperfect tribes alone will open the gates of hell to them. What do you gain by hating a whole tribe that each time any thing is said about them whether good or bad all you think about is hateful comments. No matter how much Igbo, Hausa or yoruba is hated, they will all continue to strive and be whatever they are characterised of. Your being a Yoruba or Igbo is not of your making, God just placed you there so why hate? You could have been from the othyer tribe. Let us preach love not hate. The day i saw a Yoruba culture or something like this in one foreign place like this posted on this blog, I was very happy for them, at least we are putting our country on the map, nobody will say they had never heard of this great country Nigeria.God was not wrong when he placed us all here. No matter how much we hate each other, when you go out there nobody knows you are Yoruba or Igbo or Hausa, All they know is that you are a Nigerian. One love my unique people.
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely, Igbo People no dey carry last at all.
ReplyDeleteThat awesome feeling every igbo man in d US feels knowing that the igbo culture is well preserved even in foreign land. #FullBloodedIgbo
ReplyDeleteI hope they wont start a clamour for the Mayor of that city to share his municipal powers with their Ezendigbo wuruwuru...
ReplyDeleteThey might even clamour for the state to be re-named Biafra. I wish they can be refined from self - centred nonentities to a cosmopolitan set of people.
Ak100 says so...
Lwkm. Typical of them Nwa Afofungbemu. Awon ashiere gbogbo. Thats how it hurts you fools. Downgrading other tribes like yours is the shiznizz.
DeleteIt shall never be well with your people.
You go there, they use you for money, SIMPLE!
ReplyDeleteYoruba has similar place called OYOTUNJI in america.
ReplyDeleteImagine, carrying mud on the lowest level, is it the white man that will give up a good life for this kind of African juju suffer head...?
ReplyDelete* no matter what, blacks will continue to give up their backwardness for the "WhiteMan's" Ever Progressive and All Wise God...lol!
Nice. Igbokwenu.
ReplyDeleteNice.Igbokwenu.
ReplyDeleteFor those who are hating on the igbos,,,,take it or leave it ...this is so cool...it may later turn to tourist attraction and cash will start flowing,,,keep hating
ReplyDeletethe joy of being an igbo man...is a joy that has no bound......till tomorrow i will continue to be an igboman...for all the haters, transformer is not far from you, you can help ur self with that.
ReplyDeleteIgbo amaka! Nnnaa nmanwu majuo..lol
ReplyDelete@Anonymous: 10.30am and Abisoye Ojedele: I can see that both of you are hungry and angry too. Why not check any small doors near you. EAT SOME SHIT AND DIE OF HATE.
ReplyDeleteGood and loving. God is with us and nobody can suppress us
ReplyDeleteHmm I love this and will surely visit. Igbo kwenu.....
ReplyDeleteIgnorance, hate and blind ethnicity will kill the lots of you who only choose to berate whatever Ndi-Igbo do. You will hate them and yet take money from them in one way or another. You are taking a curse on yourselves, period. Ign0ramuses talk about their ethnicity being the slaves like there is a crown for it. Any fo0l who cannot scout the internet for proof will come on platforms to type crap. Here is a link on the famous Igbo landings as it concerns Igbo slaves in the USA. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igbo_Landing
