Well the truth is according to origin we where believed to have originated from Eri

Unless you are from an Umueri town (Aguleri, Nteje, Nando and co.,) you are not descended from Eri.

And you are not descended from Israelites either. It's high time we stopped promoting the legend of a small corner of Igboland into the national origin story of the whole Igbo "nation".

I guess they were also bleaching in precolonial days when the relatively high occurrence of light skin tone was observed among them in the Americas, leading to the expression "Red Ibo".

I’d argue that Imo girls are lighter than Enugu girls. And Eri origins only apply to a certain part of Anambra State. Unless you’re of Aguleri-lite stock, (or at least Nri-Awka) you’re not an Eri descendent.

It's not. Other parts of Igboland have their own different origin stories.
