yeah there is also that angle to the story. some say he was born in the carribean and some say he was born in virginia or georgia. its like how the founder of the hebrew israelites rabbi matthews claimed to be from nigeria to get fame. its something spiritual about nigeria that makes people of old always lay claim to it. even the guy who mentored moses mosiah garvey moved to nigeria. duse ali. all the revolutionaries of this world are connected to nigeria. malcolm x got his name omowale when he was in nigeria. they all come to nigeria. nigeria is the spiritual ground of the world. we dont understand what we have

You have to shut that nonsense down immediately or else they’ll continue to push their propaganda and some may start to believe it to be true. This is exactly what they did with regards to the Igbos in the South-South.

Very true my dear. On previous threads, i tried hard to silence the benin lie. Its good to shoot it down early.

Had equiano not spoken igbo language and narrated igbo culture in his book. We would be in trouble today arguing his tribe. The benin scholars never claimed him. It is the yolobats, unable to find an educated yoloba slave before equiano, that manufactured and propagate the benin lies.

Thank God he narrated his culture which clearly is igbo. Else, we would be arguing endlessly with envious and vicious yolobat.

see the illiterate yoruba dunces trying so hard to distort history, when facts stare right in their weed induced faces that the man Olaudah was pure and undiluted Igbo(he even documented it in his writings, and all archives and database collections about his life that are easily accessible on the freaking internet also pointed out his "Eboe" tribe...an anglicized old way the British people referred to the Igbos..heck even some yorubas on these site mischeviously call Igbos "Eboes"winkmy God...if I didn't have some intelligent yoruba friends, I would have long concluded these people are the dumbest numbskulls right after the IQ metric of cave dwelling Neanderthals:.tufiakwa

This is the dumbest question ever heard. The igbos that speak Yoruba or Hausa, where do they learn them?

So a benin man would leave his own language and wtite igbo in his biography and narrate igbo culture and tradition.. Shame
