That is not a belief.

It has no root in genetics as well.

You Igbos are Niger-Congoid peoples.

Ah Oshinashuku my door mat- long time, can you kindly address my post instead of directing your frustrations at me kwa?

Am I the one that is making you lot a laughing stock by consistently rewriting your history and seeking to attach your tribe to people who you do not share any commonness?

Let me start by asking for your opinion- are Igbos Jews or Japanese?

What is your Jewish name? Is there a Jewish name for Amadioha? I have an open mind on this issue, you guys could be solving a mystery here that could potentially lead to a Nobel like discovery.

natedroid:
I am from Eastern Nigeria and I am Jewish, I had the honour of formerly converting to Judaism while I was out of the country and I know a number of Igbos in Nigeria and in Israel who practice Judaism and identify themselves as Jews.

Some Igbos believe that they are one of the lost tribe of ancient Israel as a result of the striking cultural similarities between the Igbo and Jewish cultures. For example, The Igbos are the only people in black West Africa who circumcise their male child on the 8th day after birth. The commandment of circumcision is a Biblical injunction and Igbos observed this practice even before the advent of the European expedition in West and and the coming of Christianity here.
There are other Igbo customs too that are very similar to Jewish customs. Over the years a number of Igbos who believe that they are descended from ancient Israel have embraced Judaism and started returning to Jewish practice (Judaism). and there are actually a handful of Jewish synagogues scattered across Nigeria.

Converting to Judaism under a recognized and legitimate Rabbinical court is one method of becoming fully Jewish. Personally I have been formerly converted by a Rabbinical Court and like other Jews in other part of the world I am recognized as a Jew irrespective of my colour and I am also eligible to migrate to Israel should I wish to since Israel was created as a homeland for the Jewish people and eagerly welcomes back home any Jew who chooses to live in Israel.

There is truth and light in the Torah! shalom


I AM PROBABLY THE ONLY JEWISH PERSON IN THIS FORUM . you guys should please hear me out. Some fractions of the Igbos claim Jewish origin BUT they don't qualify as Jews according to Jewish Law. A black tribe called the Falasha Jews of Ethiopia are recognized as Jews because they claim Jewish origin and secondly they observe and practice Jewish laws. ANY IGBO who claims Jewish origin BUT does not observe Jewish Law and isn't a convert to Judaism IS NOT JEWISH AND WILL NOT be recognized by the State of Israel or the Jewish people at large

The falasha Jews migrated to Israel decades ago, The few recognized Igbo Jews are just a few hundred of Igbos who today practice the Jewish religion.

gods rule a paricular land or nation, Igbos ran away from Israel and settled in a part of Africa now know as SE Nigeria, then Amadioha was the god who ruled the SE. . . . The Igbos got there and had no option to worship him for letting them stay!

My Igbos originated from Bini, we migrated to SE in the ancient and settled in a land where a female goddess called ''Ogbuide'' ruled. . . We had a god in Bini but we had to worship Ogbuide, you get it now?

Igbos are not jews..we are not jews and have never been.
Those phools like onwuka who use the term jews or zionist should be banished.
Phuck them with their inferiority complexes.

I am an Igbo man..i will die an Igbo man and if there is anything like reincarnation,i will be glad and proud to come back an Igbo man.

We are geographically placed in SE Nigeria for a reason and not isreal.

Phuck anyone branding us Jews.

We are Igbos and will be Igbos till the end of time.

You are moro'n,reread your post and see if it makes even an iota of sense to you.You first claimed ibo's originated from isreal then you changed to ibos originated from benin,Which one are we to believe between the two?

You are doing a great disservice to the ibo history by arguing ignorantly on a subject you know nothing of.

I dont know who is more deluded; the tribal men in around Papua New Guinea that believe Prince Philip is their god or Igbos that believe they are jews....

1) I find it laughable that SOME Igbo people ( People other African people respect for their pride and identity) continue to propagate this crap.

2) Jews don't claim to be Igbos (except this white Igwe grin grin grin), why should it always be the opposite?

3) If we are to overcome the shackles of inferiority complex, we need to identify more with our identity and tradition. It's not as bad as we think. grin


Is there any genetic evidence to back up the Jew/Igbo origin? However, if we desperately wanna associate with a 'successful group', there is something to comfort us; mankind started in Africa.

Jews, just like any other race originated from mother Africa. To then pinpoint the Jews' origin to a specific tribe without any genetic verification would be far fetched.
