Am an Igbo from Anambra, without bias, this man is not far from truth. I have earlier done my own thorough research too. I discovered some of these things he was saying are truth. Igbos have mixtures of Igala, some Bini people. The truth is that we Igbos and Igala have mixed up and cannot be separated. We are brothers
What's your family name?
Oga go and sit down, we Igbos and igalas are not in anyway related, go to Benue and Kogi, Igbos there are distinguish by their Igbosness
@@user-cp4gf1mm7n how did you do this research and what tools did you use? Don't tell me you are repeating those confused stories our elders tell... Growing up as a child, when I hear of Igala, I think of it as a spirit world so most folklores relating to spirits appeared to have occurred in Igala.. and secondly, when your elders say they come from Igala, they are referring to Idah bcos Igbos were the first occupants of Idah same as Bini.
Re-evaluate your research dear.
Oga na only u know where u come from if u come from igala just know that ur not a real igbo man so stop claiming igbos go back to igala kogi
This guy is very intelligent and well knowing
This is very profound and remarkable, Igala should hold a world wide xeremony of Land cleansing for the blood of their own brothers and sisters they joined the Fulanis to slaughter during the Nigerian civil war and now should hold a home coming ceremony of all the Igbo /Igala kingdom
Interesting! Igala and Igbos are the same people. We shall one day be one and will never be separated.

I have realized some Africans just making stories up as they go along. Stop the lies brothers and sisters.
We are not one with Igala…
We are not in anyway connected with Igalas, not in anyway at all
From EBu in delta igala clan
The Igbos have their own history which is different from what I am hearing here. What I am hearing here is that the Igalas have migrated to Igboland at different times in the past and were accepted in Igboland and they have lived there till now.
Yep! That's exactly what happened. I happen to come from Oba, in Nsukka, a town cited by the speaker, and we do have the deities he mentioned, like Omabe, Akatakpa. However, it could be that the Igalas brought those religious influences with them when they came and mixed up with the Igbo population there.
Igbos have always been a welcoming people.
He should say that igala people are Igbos because he's not telling us who and who that ths people met when they arrived those areas in Igbo land. Do you know that he even claimed our town and our siblings? Is he saying that there has not been Igbo people anywhere. I don't understand this guy and I don't believe him at all. What I even heard is that when they came to where they are today that they were people of tribes including the igbos. So what exactly is he saying?

I'm a Kenyan from luhya tribe of which maragoli is is a subtribe. But what I knew earlier is the Luo tribe that moved along river Nile from Egypt and that is why they are refer to as river lake nilotes. Mostly they are fishermen and in Kenya they are identified by fish. This is the tribe of Barack Obama
Thanks for your wonderful thoughts

Good historical research. More need to be done to synchronize the lineage of ERI king dominion, lost tribe of Israel. The Igbos comprising south east, south south got lost in Egypt before living to promise Land because of the 400 years of dwelling in Egypt and sufferings according to revelation given to Abraham that his descendants will be strangers in a foreign land for 400years. I will raise a prophet in their mist to liberate them from the hand of the wicked king. Thank you my own brothers.

This is quite an eye opener. I haven't learnt much about Igala land as an Igala like I did this 40+ mins video. Thank you.
1.Eri was the son of Gad (Genesis 46:16), the 5th son of Jacob in the Bible (Genesis 30:11). Eri migrated from Egypt and settled in present day Anambra state and is considered to be the father of Igbos. As it was common among Hebrews of old, when they arrive at a place they build a palace/temple. The temple Eri built in Anambra state, he named it OBUGAD ( house of Gad) after his father Gad. This is consistent in history, how people named settlements or children to identify with their father. Eri was not an Igalaman as the ambassador said because that will make Eri's father Gad, an Igalaman which he was not at the time. To be historically correct, Gad was a Hebrew, the son of a Hebrew called Jacob (Genesis 30:11). Igalas are descendants of Atta, a Hebrew (Eri's 2nd son) not an Igalaman , who migrated to Igala land from Agulueri in Anambra state. His father, Eri settled in present day Anambra , where he had his 5 sons named (Agulu, Atta, Oba, Igbo and Menri or Nri) and one daughter. The 2nd son Atta and some of his sons (Including Onoja) migrated to present day Kogi state and not vice versa. Etta's first son remained in Anambra state at present day Umuekette. Eri's first son, Agulu, established Agulu-eri in Anambra state. Again, some consistency on how places are named after the founding father in history.The questions is, at what stage do you call Agulu, an Igboman or Atta, an Igalaman? Suffice to say that both Agulu and Atta should be considered Hebrews since their father, Eri was Hebrew (pronounced Igbo by the local bantus Ijaws who were the first settlers as per carbon dating and archaeology). Perhaps, several decades later one can safely consider their descendants as Igbos and Igalas respectively, after they had both established permanent settlements. The other contention is that Igalas claim that Igala was founded by Onoja , a son from the second wife of Eri, while Igbos claim that Onoja was one of the sons of Atta (the 2nd son of Eri). The later is likely to be correct as acknowledged in Umuekkette where the descendants of the first son of Atta still reside. Secondly, the dynasty and title of the traditional ruler of Igaland is Atta, after the 2nd son of Eri.
2. Archeology and carbon dating of excavated pottery and bronze statues have proven that the oldest settlers in Nigeria are the Ijaws 1000-800 BCE, then next are the Igbos 900-800BCE and not the Igalas 650-500BCE as the ambassador will suggest that Igbos came from Igalas).
3. Some indigenes of present day Igalaland later migrated from South Sudan as correctly narrated. They intermarried with the descents of Eri's son, Atta and his sons (including Onoja) who had migrated from Aguleri, in Anambra state. With intermarriages happening Igbo names got adulterated with time, hence the similarities between some Igbo words/names and Igala words/names). Just like some people spell Ogba as Ogbah. The original spelling is 0-G-B-A which is an Igbo word and name. Some non- Igbos call and refer to Igbos as Ibos. But Igbo is called Igbo by the Igbos, but non Igbos, say Ibos. Who should have the correct pronunciation or spelling of a name or word, should it not be the indigenous people? You do not adulterate a name or word, then claim that you are the original owner of the word or name and claim that others adopted them from you and mis-spelt it after adopting the words/names from you, as the ambassador will suggest. So, I cannot call or tell an Igala man that the correct spelling of Igala is Igalla or Igalah. That is incorrect.That is revision.
4. A language developes or goes through some metamorphosis as a group of people migrate from point A to B and encounter new experiences and meet different cultures, a process in ethnogenesis. Those who remain in point A retain the original form of the language and have no knowledge of the metamorphosis. The migrants now in point B may speak a new form of the language but still retain some knowledge of the old language, i.e, they are able to understand both the original language and the new form of the original language. Those people still in point A can only understand the original form of the language still spoken in point A. Since they are not part of this new migration experience , they can not understand the new form spoken in point B. This explains why Igbo migrants in Igala land understand the Igala language, the old Igbo language and the new modified Igbo language, but Igbos do not understand neither the Igala language nor the new modified Igbo language spoken by Igalas. This explains that the migration pattern occurred from Igboland to Igala land and not vice versa as the ambassador will suggest. In a nut shell, If I was to speak to Shakespeare today.If he said to me, comest thou soonest? I will understand him. However, If I say to him, Would you be coming soon? I doubt that he knows what I was talking about.

@@uchennavictor9866 it's like u are among d deceived that sees black people as inferior race. Have u heard of black jews or black Jesus? Did u know that man that helped Jesus to carry his cross when Jesus was bn taking to be crucified is actually a black man? What is a black man doing in ur supposedly white land of Israel to d extent that he is not bn discriminated against for bn black as it is in present day European territories?
Read books and u'll understand that the real jews are not Caucasians. The image of Jesus that u are currently seeing was the son of a Roman King, Constantine, that was painted by a popular Roman artist. History of blacks was changed by the Caucasians and was further eroded by the Arabs who invaded our lands and brought Islam through Jihad. Have u been to Russian churches, u'll still see the images of the real black Jesus and black Mary, not d ones that Europe have changed. President Putin recently unveiled the portrait of Jesus not made by hand as it is fondly called by d Russians. They have it with them and chose not to twist history as was done by fellow Caucasians in Europe. That is why Europe is never happy with Russia, cos Russia always choose to their own things their own way different from d Europeans.
Also, worthy of note is that the present day Egyptians are not the original Egyptians. Egypt is a conquered territory and is now occupied by d Arabs of Persia. I think u don't read cos these information are out there. The real Israelites are actually blacks and lived in Ethiopia. The real name of Africa used to be Askabulum, which means d land of origin. Africa name was changed to Moors, land of Negros and finally to Africa. Do u know that d present Sahara desert used to house a huge civilisation in centuries ago. There are Portuguese and British maps that showed green vegetation and river crossing d Sahara desert as at 12 and 13 century AD? I know u don't know these things. A lot has happened before our time that we cannot explain. Even after we have long gone from this world, our descendants may still face same fate. Cos everything around us constantly changes. It is only God that remains constant. Heaven and Earth will pass away but God still remains who he is, cos he is d creator of times and seasons.

@ernestkanu12..., you're a genius in logic and reasoning. We need people like you in Igbo land. I'll like to be your friend. I very much appreciate your intellectual ability. Very awesome 👌.
You are so correct in your detailed historical information. I wonder how a child can give birth to his/her mother
Yes, the Federal Government in an attempt to divide and break up the Igbo power after the war, sliced off Igbo lands and communities and merged them with Benue, Kogi and Edo. That was how we have Igbo speaking communities in all of these places today. The guy is confused. I am Igbo from Anambra state but grew up in an Idoma house and I speak Idoma fluently so, I know many of these things. Even the Idoma language have so many similarities with the Igbo language too. This guy is so confused on so many levels.
English: Pearl Idoma: Ube igbo: Ube (same pronounciation)
English: Chair/Seat Idoma: Óchi Igbo 1: Oche Igbo 2: Óchi (for smile/laughter)
English: Sickness Idoma: Oche (see 'Igbo 1' above) Igbo: Aru-onwunwu
English: Gun Idoma: Eğbe Igbo: Egbe (same pronounciation but for Idoma, the letter 'g' is given more emphasis)
English: Rice Idoma: Ochkapa Igbo: Oshikapa (almost the same pronounciation)
English: Masquerade or God (Interchangeable) Idoma: Agaba-Idu (one of the names of God the creator) Igbo: Agaba-Idu (name of a masquerade)
English: King/King's given title Idoma: Óche Idoma (In Igbo, the term 'ichì ochichi' to take over leadership or 'chì', which means leading, govern or rule over a people etc. which is what the Òche Idoma does, governing the Idoma people as king)
English: Ada given name Idoma: Ada (given name of a daughter) Igbo: Ada (a natural and compulsory given and reserved title for only 1st daughters of every family and sometimes, their given names too)
English: Tomorrow Idoma: Ochi Igbo: Echi
English: Today/Stone Idoma: Iche (today) Igbo: Iche (stone)
Both tribes, you can see use the same words. Sometimes, those words mean the same thing and other times, they mean two different things. Therefore, I can conveniently conclude that both tribes, the Igbo and the Idoma are siblings for certain. And therefore, since the Idoma and the Igala have similar cultures, it therefore points back once more that the Igalas are indeed, direct siblings of the Igbo as well.

We don't even know who or which history/story teller or so called researchers to believe. It think it's ironical that an Igala man would claim the larger tribe of Igbo came from Igala - this is unbelievable, it would probably make some sense if the young man had sad the Igala people came from the Igbos. Even though i am not an Igbo or Igala person but i think this guy is dead wrong in his fairytale.
@@adeyinkabolaji my dear, the lady on the video is a paid sl.ot of the Attah and his cabinet.. she has been going about distorting Igbo history to suit the current campaign of Ayegba and his Igala reconnection project... Whatever you hear there is just a story by propagandists. It's nothing historical.
@Adeyinkabojaji, I say, wow, great minds like yours think outside the box. Good reasoning.
You just committed a logical fallacy. A big society (today) can surely emerge from a smaller source.
For example, it is not in contention that the Yorubas across South West and across the world emerge from the small town of Ile-Ife in Osun State.
@@XtjiggzsIn all honesty, you are the one that is committing logical fallacy. I was kinda of expecting you to say that the larger Yoruba tribe came from the smaller Edo or Benin tribe in Nigeria. That would have been the same line of reasoning espoused therein. Your post is akin to saying that since the large Yoruba population came from a smaller source Oduduwa our so, then it is possible that the larger Igbo tribe who are very distinct came from the smaller Igala tribe who are also very distinct from the Igbos. Whether the Yorubas came from Ogun, Ondo, etc, they are one people. The Igbos and the Igalas are two different and unique entities.
Why is the Igala so poor but the ibos are stinkishly very Rich and very hard working people ?

I have alot of igala people I like but what I'm hearing want to make me dislike them so I'm asking you if they're good to igbos
@ogechiokata4306 Not true at all! No pogrom took place in igala land. I was 8 years old when the civil war ended in 1970 and I recall that when Chief Umeano returned to my home town on a visit soon after, he was welcomed with pomp and pageantry. Even though he never relocated back to the town, which was his base & where he had done very well , he kept making contributions to the development of the town until he died. I am sure he wouldn't have done that if the story of the pogrom was true. He stayed put in Nsukka (less than 40 km away ) even though I only recently learnt that he was actually from Imo state. His property are still in my village and I think still within his family(I don't have full information about that). So, pls continue to love your igala friends.

He is definitely out of his element when it comes to their history outside of modern day Nigeria. Cross cultural studies, Onomastic and Historical linguistic are the most effective means of recovering lost ancestral roots. Many tribes in subsaharan African are regroupings of splinter groups from broader cultural areas that can be trace back to either the Sahara or the Nile Valley, especially those that have connections to ancient Khemit. In other words, several tribes in Nigeria belong to broader cultural landscape. For Example, the word Igala is a variant of the place name Garama i.e. ancient city of the Garamantes which means citizen/inhabitants or people of Gara. The disintegration of the kingdom resulted in fragmented groups migrating in multiple waves in two directions into West Africa. One direction left Libya and move through the Air and Tibesti mountains region as a part of the Teda -Toubou groups. Several people groups would part ways with the Teda-Toubou to become the proto-Ijaw, Ga-Adangbe and Ahel Gara/Igala Ashanti among others. Another group of Garamantes migrated with the Aswanik Soninke i.e. Sinoe Klao of Liberia whose nymala Dako (Clan) is an offshoot of the Nemala clan of the Zenata branch of Libyco-Berber who incidentally are related to Hausa Katsina/ Ka-Tsina group. The original tribal confederation to which the eastern wave of Garama people belong was called Dya’ ogo in an oral account provided by a Senegalese nobleman named Yoro dyao. While it is true that Dya’ ogo is the eponymous ancestor of the Tekrur people in the Senegambia, the actual migrating parent group is known as Dyabo i.e. People of Dya, and today they form a part of the so-called Grebo speaking people of Liberia. They have a town/city called GarraWay which would be Garramay/Garamay in certain dialects because M and. W interchange linguistically. Extensive research reveals that the so-called Grebo belong to the Horite people of the Bible, and i assert that the Horites were an expansion of what George Reisner calls the A group Nubians who were annexed and acculturated by the southern Egypt at the dawn of dynastic Khemit. According to Katherine Acholonu, the proto-igbo people belong to the Horites group and well as some Akan groups- Dakon-Ra. This is just one example of the complex nature of history of West Africa. I have been reconstructing our history for years and one thing is for sure, Africans are all historically connected. Hope this info helps someone in their research. Historical Research is very tedious and takes years to hash out. Btw, In the Historiographic context of West Africa, the Kru (Proto Kwa) speaking people (my ancestral tribe) migrated from Mali and Mauritania during the collapse of the Mali empire via Guinea to modern day Ivory Coast and Liberia, and they originally belonged to the proto Soninke and Pulaar groups. Similar to how the Soninke are the result of thousands of years of ethnic mixing and cultural convergence in the Nile valley, the ethnogensis of the Fulani share a similar trajectory. For instance, There is Pulaar, Fulbe, Fulfulde, Soh, Barry, and Lamtoro(Futa Toro), all of which have different traditions of origin but now belong to the same ethnic group.
The Kru cultural group has direct ties to the Nile valley but unfortunately there hasn’t been a lot of archaeological and Anthropological research conducted on this group. At any rate, the Igala are an offshoot of the Garamantes who have historical ties with the Zenata branch of the proto Surake Maures i.e. Lewatae. Chana/Djana/Djanna Soninke, Djaniewin or Grand Kulla in Kru Aka Egyptian Djanet/Tanis is the progenitor of the Zenata/Ta Seni/Aswanik branch of the Sarakole. The Aswanik, Zenata, proto Mande and Lewatae Maure all belonged to the Same cultural area in ancient Khemit. Thus Soninke is not a Mande language but rather it’s related to a branch of Soninke proper who lived and interacted in the Same cultural area with the proto Mande speakers, resulting in a type of cultural and linguistic convergence between the Aswanik branch and the Mande language family. They formed part of the allies of the Hyksos 15th dynasty who were defeated by the 17th and 18th dynasty New Kingdoms rulers. Groups like the Ashanti, Ga Adangbe, Garamantes never returned to Khemit after that war and the subsequent expulsion of the Hyksos(1550B.C), but some groups returned to Khemit with the Lebu and Meshwesh confederation of paramount rulers only to be pushed out later by the Persians during the 26th dynasty. Igala were part of the Libyan group and the fragmentation of that cultural group farther into West Africa. The oral traditions of the Soninke Kayan Magan reflects the arrival of the allies and some descendants of the Salatis dynasty into Mauritanian and Mali circa 300 AD. They were Sanhaja Berbers and Azer Soninke who were the forerunners of the Dinga Khasse/King Kashta migration in the 7th century A.D. commonly known in several circles as the Kisra and Nimrod migrations, Beli-Zaghawa, Kumoni-Oru, Zuwa Alyaman, Soninke from the east which are all names referring to the Nara group of Wagadou.
Dinga’s group( the Ethiopian wave) is connected to the Menelik dynasty of modern day Ethiopia. They are descendants of the White crown wearers from the line of Misraim and are of Pulaar-Soninke descent. Therefore, the second intermediate period can be described as a political schism between the union of the White and Red Crown of Old and Middle Kingdom rulers. The 25th dynasty was a renaissance and restitution of that cultural and political heritage as well a a continuation of the Nile valley cultural complex that we all cherish to this day. It also interesting to note that while modern day Soninke recall in their oral account that Dinga is the ancestor of the Soninke and that they are sons and daughter of this king, most of them don’t have a migration tradition linking them to the rulers of the 25th dynasty nor can they tell you what polity and what ethnic group he belonged to.( Soninke was originally at regal or imperial name that later became a ethnonym). This means that modern day Soninke people’s ancestral ties either lie within the Saharan group or the ties to the Ethiopic wave are more than likely attributed to lineages who stayed behind and/or offsprings of the ethnic mixing that took place during the emergence and duration of the Sahelian Kingdoms.
Lastly, Oduduwa’s group and the Akanfo/Kanembu were also a part of Dinga’s (Lamurudu) migration which was mainly prompted by the Christianization of the Nile and the Arabization of the Sahara. The geographical distribution of the modern descendants of the various ethnic groups associated with the 25th dynasty rulers today stretches from Northern Darfur to Modern day Liberia. While the founders of Igala can not be traced to the population movement of the Napata and Meroe cultural groups, it seems evident that they live and interacted with Dinga’s group along the ancient trade route called Wadi Howar i.e. Yellow Nile, specifically in the Tibesti region before all of them were forced to migrate deeper into West Africa due the the Arab invasion of the Maghrebi. The Ahel Gara mixed with the indigenous populations in the region, resulting in negotiation of new ethnic identities
It has taken me decades to unearth these historical and cultural connections, but my ultimate goal was to understand the origin and historical connection between the Kru, Pular, Fulbe, Fulfulde and Balanta people which was a rabbit hole in and of itself. I realize this is a lot to take in and is a tad bit off topic but i just want to illustrate just how complex, nuanced and interconnected is the history of our people.

Have that Egyptians community ever visited Igala or have any Igala king ever visited the Community in Egypt.
good question
They can't. Many of those places are under the desert sand. Moreover, after the fall of Roman Empire, the Arabs invaded North America including Egypt destyroying everything along the way with their brand of religion, convert or die. That is why the present Egyptians have no clue about the history of the region and the historical sites being dug up today. They are the descendants of the Arab invaders and migrants.

Today the Yoruba, igala and Itsekiri closely related. All three groups are decended from the ancient Egyptians. Red and white are also the colours of the Itsekiri royalty. The Western and northern Igbo have igala ancestry
Confirm thank you sir
According to various history

#Freebiafranow 😇🙏🔯
OGA I am Igbo I want to come home to igala I hope there is land to give me and my family...
As a retune
Wooow that means we igbos are from igala because even we aguleri are saying it that we are the same people
Igalas are Igbos from the ATTA, the 2nd son of ERI. They know it which is why many of them relocated back to Igbo land proper in various towns.
It's you alone that came from Igala
Actually, it's the other way around. Agulu is the first son of Eri while Atta is the 2nd son who founded Atta Igala. Some of his descendants moved back to the East, the current South East and South South. Oba, the 3rd son moved to Edo where you have Edo Igbos some of whose desendants moved back to the East as well. Some of his decendants and migrants from Owerri make up Ikwerre with other extended Igbo family tribes.
All Igbos all over the World are all Igalas that is the reason Igala is populated more than Igbos. Stupid history confusing his people.
@@destinyibe9083 Many Igalas are descendants of Igbos, especially Atta, the 2nd son of Eri, hence the name Atta Igala. Some of his descendants and other Igbos who migrated there with him came back to the East, the present day Southeast and South South.
When the igala came to igboland did they meet people their or was it an empty land?
Yes it was empty
@@rahmaharun4621you were watching from afar and you saw it Empty. You are the greatest lier of all time.
Hahaha . Igalas are still Igbos . We travel all the way from Israel or Egypt to Nigeria some stops at different Africa countries and some northern Nigeria also. We are one people both Edo state. But igalas speaks so igbos language and tradition to show the connection till date. Some Igbos in Other countries don't speak anymore but igalas speaks small. OBA of benin and oba ife has said the same of Igbos coming from them 😂😂😂😂. We are one people we do same but no love between us. Igalas kills us during the biafra war ! Yeah. Many business Igbo man they those days do return back to Igbos and settle down in East so for get . From Igala, Benin Yoruba and others Africa countries like South Africa. My blood is still in south Africa till date with his family. He went to do boi boi before the independence of south Africa. Those IGBO traders has their Area and states . He came for his father burial on 2021 here in Ezeagu local government Enugu state Nigeria. with his wife and first son. He took his some of his childhood pictures and drop his recent pictures for us . His wife family is also from Anambra state Igbo again but south Africa there. So if they come back they are still Igbos.
already they're of same family from the Eri dynasty, , what he's saying is true, is a compliment of the Igbo version of history that we all know.
He is 100% correct I'm from Ebu
Thanks
Haha i laugh in atah in imostate
I enjoyed that history very much, but the major question was not answered. The question is: "What is the link between the Igbos and the Igalas?" From our research from the British Achieves, it stated that the Igalas and the Igbos are from the same ancestors. From what this Historian said, he never gave any link between the Igbos and the Igalas. Does it mean that the Igbos were already here (in Igbo land) before the Igalas came and joined them, or what? The Igalas need to do more research on their "Link with the Igbos" because all achieves state that the Igbos and the Igalas are of the same ancestors, and from Nri.
The extent of our history we know js that we were ond of the several nubian tribes fhat left nubia. We and the kanuris and jukuns. Our histories are interrelated and our relationship far preceeds that with the igbos.
If Igalla people are descendants of Egypt this means they’re descended from Ham, Igbos are descended from Shem. Yes Igbos lived in Egypt as Israelites for 248 years if I’m not mistaken until the Exodus with Moses. We are not the same people, we have intermingled with Hamites for centuries doesn’t make us the same people. We don’t look or even sound alike, we don’t have the same culture, customs or traditions.
The original inhabitants of Egypt are not the Arabs. The Arab came and conquered Egypt and took over the spoils, made our ancestors (Cush, Ethiopia, Moors, Negros, and now called blacks) slaves, which made many to escape the slavery in Egypt to the present day West, Central and East Africa.
@@paturch7201 point of correction, Negroes are not Cushites or Hamites, we are a different breed and stock of black people descended from Shem not Ham. A lot of you are Hamites n we are not the same with you even though we once all resided in Egypt n even served as slaves. We did not escape slavery but were led out of it by the hand of the Most High’s servant Moses the Prophet.
Nsukka (igbo city created or jointly created by the igala people) Osuka (Igala) Òsùká (Yoruba meaning head rap to carry load or head gear meaning the same thing in igala language
I have learn that whenever Igala people want to crowd a high chief oh king, the Jukun tribe head chief to perform ritual, so what then connect Igala and igbo?
Igbo says they are not northerners, how did they manage to connect with Igala?
I like the fact that Igala chief said the igbo came from them.
I couldn't even bare listening to all the misleading echoes of our Igala brother. Although, brilliant but certainly needs more in-depth research about the true facts linking the two nations or tribes.
i am igala man igbo and igala migrate from the same place .
The man old man with vitiligo shaking his head, is that a loop or he shook his head throughout the video.
If i heard correctly eri is the father of Attah, wow, what a world? Why do we fight one another? We qre all brothers.
This a true reflection of why God put us together in Africa, then the question is why are we killing ourselves for money and for women?, when God has created us as brothers and sisters to live together. In the ancient times, the war our forefathers fought is not for money or women, but for proven superiority land matters.
Lots of theise is good, for clarification, especially for diaspora in the west .
We knew that half of the history wasn't told so from the African giving us and correction of the corrupt versions is a good thing.
We have to clear up things so we didn't go around blaming each others 4 the slavery and displacement of our people .
You guys like blaming Nigerians (Igbos) for selling our own as slaves but we see how you flock over to Ghana to resettle and never bother settling in Igboland. If you must know, it was the Ghanaians whom the British/Whitemen brought along to Nigeria's Eastern regions to go about capturing by kidnapping the Igbos to be taken away as slaves against their will. Those slaves' descendants are now the African Americans including yourself. Glad you're watching and learning anyway. Goodluck as you learn along.
All these he said, there is typical truth in it
This man is misleading people, his story has no backup (how come igala is now a minority)
Israel is older than many tribes in the world but are few. Will you say Arabs are older than the Jewish people just because Arabs more than them
The branches of a tree is always larger and bloom major than the root…that the Igalas are minority doesn’t cancel the fact that the Igalas birth majority tribe!
Ijaw are the oldest in Nigeria and they are minority. Ika is minority but birth part of Igbo, Beni birth part of Igbo, igala birth part of Igbo and Bantu stock in Niger Congo birth the remaining part of Igbo. But because Igbo are now majority they are claiming people who birth them
They went to war and refused to come back 😂😂
@@AdamaEAdamafrom the beginning the Arabs are more in numbers than the israelite. Only the philistines alone conquered some part of israelite, na samson help them. They always are conquered by babylon (Irak), medo-pesia (Iran). Israel small na God dey help them.
He's out of his mind for talking rubbish, how can mentioned that Igala people are this and that in igboland without recognising the owners of the land, he should say that igala people was wanderer's who came to igboland and settled in some places which Igbo's accepted them as good people....
Igbonile Bu Ofu Nna Na Ofu Umunne Gbaa Gburugburu.
Half of Igala has been conquered by the terrorist and even their chiefs are now alhaji this or that!
A PEOPLE CONFUSED IN THE ARENA OF BIAFRAN WAR IS HARD TO BELIEVE, COULD BE AS SO CONFUSED IN THE ARENA OF PERSDCUTION AND POLITICS. SAD. VERY SAD. WELL, NO TIME IS LATE. NIGERIA MUST BE EGYPT OF YOUR TIME IF YOU ACCEPT NOW. ....ICHIE DIOHA OKEOMA.
I'm going to download this video for reference purpose,
His knowledge and information is similar to the history of Ndi Igbo, mind you, Igbo Land was an ancient civilization,is made up of combination of ancestral family, all pointing to the Nile rivers people in Egypt, Igbo race and civilization is connected to His Majesty Eri, he also mentioned it that the Atah is also connected to His Majesty Eri, Case close.
everyone go home.
There are igala in my local government in anambra state
The man really spoke well with clarity. He may be right in some and may be wrong in some. However, I feel he over exaggerated the history.
Two things i question:;(1) that our warriors couldn't stand the war machines of Portuguese.(2). Reference to Google like it's his source. But many of what he said connects.
I heard him call river naija Ohimini and we call it Ohimili naija.
IGBO PEOPLE ARE IGALAS
NOW,WE ARE ONE BLOOD
BIKO
Binin still have their own history 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
But I know we are all one. God bless NNAMDI KANU. We are all one people
Don't mind all of them , both their king and their people are confused
Too much craze everywhere
Explain what is too much of a craze i hope u are not consumed by hate or wrong history given to you.,
There is a story that Eri, 11:37 the supposed father of the Igbos, married the daughtr of an Igala man named KILIDIM. It is from the union that the Igbo race came. As a young child, when one wants to reflect on how long ago any event happened, one usually said it happened eri 19 Kilidim!
Nonsense
Just say all the tribe in Nigeria migrated from igala🥴
All those your storey is fake, if your people are missing look for them and don't generalize it to all tribes.
We have many igbos in igala land
😂
He is selecting part of Igbo adding to Igala instead of he saying Igala part of lgbo he is avoiding that but trying to Igbos come from Igala. This man is confusing his people. He is telling her his of the world. This deserve a good slap. The ask you the connection of Igala and Igbos simple it is or not. She did ask you where came from.
He mentioned that attah is one of eri' son. Pls go back and listen again we are all brothers
Igbo is the most prosperous son of Eri.
Just known to us that Attah left Eri compound with his family
I wonder why the Igala people did not look for the Atlantic ocean instead of settling by the river side. By now, Igala people would have been famous compared to now. I believed that Igala people may have been the first people that first populated Nigeria. Is that correct?
I thought Igbo saids, they are Jewish ? what makes them in a relationship with Igala?
That history is seeking recognition.
I think Igbo are finding a way to colonial Igala.
I heard most of the masquerades in igbo land are own by the igala .
Am interested in the igalla attire how do i get
Seems like Egypt gave birth to many of us ..He said Attah and Eri are from one father
He should prove that nonsense, how Egyptians and Israelites can have the same father.
what he means by some parts of Igbo and he's stated facts,is, the Land not the people, most settled amongst their brothers Igbos,
the kanuri's the junkun's, gwari's were their neighbors and had fights with them for many years,
he did not call those people hausa's , which means the Hausa was an empire that ruled in the northern land that conquered the other tribes and in return the Fulani's now conquer the hausas under Nigeria government through the ínfluence of religion,
History is a beautiful thing,
they took out history from our schools, thereby taking away the beauty of our Race, we need it back.
Idda or Edda in ebonyi please confirm because am from Edda as to know which way ??😊
Igalas are of Jukuns in Taraba state.Jukuns are from Egypt.
Igala should go back to Jukun in taraba state.
Story story
This "research" could be summed up by saying, Igala people are basically sub Igbo group, The Igbos history sounds more authentic. Saying Igala people are found in various places of Igbo land and overseas seems a copy and paste information the Igbo people have been saying for centuries. I believe there should be an open debate in all these identity driven crisis
So I am from Oba in Nsukka. Now I know why they call Oba as "Oba-Udu" or "Oba Udulekenyi", and we have people also in Anambra.
So I guess Igbos and Igalas are a mixed heritage? So Igalas are not a pure heritage, and I don't think Igbos are a pure lineage either.
I see people from Idoma answering purely well known Igbo last names, and also people from Igala lineage answering purely Igbo last names.
I am from okpu orba udu
@@frankjohnson5198 me too am from okpu orba☺️ nice meeting you here
I am from owere-ezeOrba and originally from time old Attah of Igala do crowns the Ezeorba but the story of this guy is not all true what am sure of before the colonization all Igbo Nsukka are under Attah of Igala due to war but Orba as whole we fought to owns this land we are today.
