Same bishop that has been coming to winners chapel , am not understanding? Is he coming for the first time to Nigeria? Capital no. Then why is the post saying such? Something is wrong somewhere.
If you are sure of what you are saying, create a counter thread.

His ancestral lineage was traced to the Onuigwe family in Aguluezechukwu, Aguata LGA of present day Anambra state.

Incidentally, the Onuigwe family has a history of producing pastors, Rev. O.C Dominic, founder and G.O of National evangelical Movement being also an Onuigwe.

Bishop O. C Dominic is the current G.S of N.E.M but he is not the founder. This is the same mistake people make about RCCG. Adeboye is the GO but he isn't the founder. This two men of God have never claimed to be the founders of their ministry. There was a man called Rev. Ogbuozobe, he was the former GS of NEM. It was after he stepped down that Bishop Onuigwe took over

Welcome home
Re: TD Jakes Traces Igbo Roots, Visits Nigeria (Photos) by Nobody: 3:44pm On Sep 10, 2017
Op i just read a fallacy, but i wont blame you, i'll blame Punch. T.D Jakes has been to naija before at least once, which i am certain of. And that was either the second or third installment of the eXperience gospel concert. About whether he is igbo or not, i wont comment on that. Time will tell. Naija always like to dey claim successes that they will never create.
Masterclass32:
American pastor, author and filmmaker, Bishop Thomas Dexter Jakes, has reportedly traced his roots to Nigeria, where he has discovered that he is actually Igbo.

As posted on her Facebook wall on Friday, Mrs. Ifeanyi Adefarasin of the House on the Rock Church, notes that the bishop of The Potter’s House, a nondenominational American mega church, stepped on Nigerian soil for the first time this week.

According to his Wikipedia biography, T.D. Jakes, as he is popularly known, was born in South Charleston, West Virginia on June 9, 1957 and grew up in Vandalia, attending local Baptist churches.

Jakes spent his teenage years caring for his invalid father and working in local industries, the site says.

Concerning Jake’s Igbo root, Ifeanyi Adefarasin writes, “Since tracing his roots back to the Igbo land in Nigeria, it was Bishop Thomas Dexter Jakes’ first time stepping on the Nigerian soil, with the knowledge that this is where he truly comes from.

“It was a special honour for me in particular, as a native sister, to present TD Jakes with a copy of Nigeria, Our Heritage…Our Commonwealth.

Welcome home! “Okeosisi – Umunne gi na asi gi nno.”

1. TD Jakes has been to Naija before, so stop fabricating lies.

2. I am Yoruba, and I'm not surprised he is of Igbo descent.

That is an Igbo cranium.

There are people in America that will need DNA to trace where they are from. There are others that should not waste money doing DNA test....TD Jakes does not need a test, his Ibo blood stares you in the face. grin
Na lie.

He can also be mistaken for a Yoruba man too.

Throwback:
While he is tracing his roots to an African tribe, he should be informed that the very same African tribe suffers inferiority complex and have been begging to be accepted as Jews.

It ended in a disgraceful rejection of the wannabes who have no pride of their own African heritage.

Hate is a terrible thing— it beclouds a lot which includes the ability to rationalise clearly.

Else how will one insist— like you've done— the views of a handful of IPOB members, perhaps a couple of hundreds, who insist they have a Jewish heritage— how will someone insist that this view of a few hundreds represents the world view of what are possibly over 31 million people (CIA World Book Facts)? If the terrorising carnage of Boko Haram was never used to represent the entire Northern Muslim or the violent skimirshes of OPC was clearly separated from the Yorubas, where's the logic in representing a few hundreds of Judaism-claiming IPOB members as the view of 31.8 m Igbos?

It will be ridiculous to describe your reasoning as pedestrian. At best, it is outright silly. Ignorance, which possibly is your rationalisation, is no excuse here.

Hate is a terrible thing.

Your sick hatred is quite obvious. Get help before it drives you to total lunacy.
