Imagine being born without any roots,not knowing where ur ancestors come from,no culture and being treated like slaves in your own "country".

An African American man from Abia state has said that he's visiting Nigeria next year 2018 after being based in the United States all his life. David Love who is a US citizen, said his ancestors were captured/shipped to America for slavery and worked on a plantation so that he might return to his homeland one day as his relatives have provided him with traditional attire for him to dress like an Igbo man in the US.

Below is what he shared on Facebook;

I am African American but my ancestor was captured and shipped to North America for enslavement. It was here that my ancestor survived on a slave plantation in Virginia so that I might one day return to my homeland. I am descended from the Igbos of Umuahia and my clan is within Umuopara.

My DNA has been connected my distant cousin Obie Uwadineke who is from Umunwanwa. Mazi Ikem C. Eronini has provided me with the clothing so that I can dress as an Igbo man. I am returning 2018 to visit.

Unfortunately many are shipping themselves to obodo oyinbo voluntarily as slaves through various means even at great risk of dying.

todaynewsreview:
The bodies of at least 74 migrants have been washed ashore in western Libya, in the latest tragedy along the dangerous trafficking route to Europe. The Libyan Red Crescent posted photos of dozens of bodies in black and white bags lined up along the shore near the western city of Zawiya.
A spokesman for the aid organisation said there were still bodies floating out at sea as the agency had no way of retrieving them. He said the migrants were all adults, mostly from sub-Saharan African countries, and all but three were men.
The UN migration agency, the International Organisation of Migration (IOM), said the dinghy had set off on Saturday with 110 people on board. The agency said traffickers deliberately took the engines from the boat and then abandoned it to drift.

The truth is a lot of African Americans feel a deep sense of being lost in this world.

DNA is helping to breech that gap.

While there are tales of forceful abductions during the slave trade era, some of your ancestors were actually sold by their families. Before you embark on that Journey, find out which category your ancestors belong to or risk being resold.
Don't be miopic . This argument you ate bringin had been robustly disputed times without numbers . Reason being if there where European buyers there won't be sellers . So directly or u directly . The European s foiled the slave trade .

I salute any and all diaspora Afrikans who identify with their Ancestral roots and take steps to reconnect. I salute any and all Continental Africans (Naija or elsewhere)who recognize the diaspora's issues wirh rhe lost identity ....a crisis born out of European lust and deceit.... it's too bad this brother didn't think highly enough if himself or his culture or his ancestral roots, to marry a woman who shares his own hue .....but if he had....no1 would be talking too much about his desire and plan to come back to Nigeria and reconnect with his Igbo roots....

How does one ship themselves abroad as slaves ?
As we speak is there no slave labour in Nigeria at the moment ? When you see a whole father of three diging foundation on a construction site and earning N3k max a day ?
