Hell no Igbo's are not of mixed Ancestry, even if they mixed in the time of slavery it has now been diluted. Light skin and good looks does not make on mixed.

obviously a lot of nigerians have mixed ancestry which they may or may not be aware of, but i believe the incidence is higher as you head towards the east [includes midwest].

northerners also have mixed ancestry but i dont think they're unaware of it for the most part.


the southern one is probably from white/arab/non-black males in times past, hence the silence.

if the non-black admixture were from the mother, it would be more acknowledged.

No tribe in Nigeria is significantly mixed except perhaps the fulani, but even they may not be.

^^you know very little about nigeria so i'd advise you to stick to learning about your hometown instead of putting mouth in things that dont concern you.
Re: Do Igbo's Have Mixed Ancestry by pleep(m): 5:16am On Nov 30, 2011
Were is your proof that the tribes of Nigeria are mixed?

Just because a few people have light skin or similar words to another language does not mean they are mixed.


And why do some of you people want to be mixed so bad anyway ?

Don't insult me. If u wanted to know why i thought the fulani[i] might [/i]be mixed you could have asked, and i would have told you its because they are nomads, and nomadic peoples are often very mixed.

light skin doesnt = mixed i tell people that all the time.

The only thing Jews & Igbos have in common is that they are both experts at stealing other people's money. Most are crooks & stingy!!!

ROTFLMAOOOO!

Re: Do Igbo's Have Mixed Ancestry by OdenigboAroli(m): 7:47am On Jun 17, 2012
99.9%Igbo never claimed any ridiculous jewish ancestry; The only reason why ppl try to connect us to the jews is because of some characteristics we share with them....Jews never used to have kings,they had priest like king leaders that shepered them before they developed the king system....Igbos are shrewed business men just like the jews,Igbos suffered persecution by the Nigerians with help from the western world but today Igbo are probably the richest ethnic group in Africa.
Those light skin Igbos are not mixed because they still have their African features....80% of Igbo families has at least one light skin woman in their midst.
Ybuttefly need to stop this hate...Tosinvile need to chill....You guys give Igbos too much credit. Fact is that Igbos are very unique group if you look from outside.

exactly! Igbos being light skinned might be a product of recessive genes. We trace our ancestry to a certain ERI (at least' anambra igbos. Imo igbos like the aros trace theirs to a certain ARODI. Both eri and arodi are brothers and sons of a certain GAD. Gad is one of the sons of jacob(israel) Through leah's handmaid biliah. Now jacob is shemite (white), But biliah's ethnicity is not known. She very well could be a hammite(black) as blacks were more likely to have been a handmaid! If this analogy is correct, then it is safe to say the reason for igbo lightskinnes is as a result of jacobs recessive genes as black genes are medically dorminant!

@ All, pls, the ERI in our lore, where did he come from? Dont tell me he dropped from the ski like oduduwa! Ever heard of the term "mgbe-eri" or "erimgbe"? Pls there is nothing sacrosant about race! Nobody has been able to explain why igbos tend to be light skinned than other africans.

pleep: What is so beautiful about dancing with human skulls on your head? This is why people have such a negative veiw of paganism.

I do not know if that is beautiful or not ... but they are traditions.
You may not like that dance. You know it's all a matter of taste.
Some people prefer to kneel before a statue of plaster, while others prefer to read the Jewish Bible, which taught them to read the European masters, or the Koran that taught them to read the Arab masters ...
Everything is a matter of taste ...
That's part of something called TRADITION AND CULTURE
A matter of choice
I prefer this dance, and other things.
