The Igbo Jews are said to have migrated from Syrian, Portuguese and Libyan Israelites into West Africa. Historical records shows that this migration started around 740 C.E.[citation needed] According to UCLA trained amateur Jewish Historian and Rio Hondo Police Academy trained Forensic investigator Chinedu Nwabunwanne of Aguleri, who resides in Los Angeles and has researched this subject for more than 15 years at the UCLA libraries in Los Angeles, "the migration started when the forces of Caliph Mohammed -the last leader of the Umayyads- and his Qaysi-Arab supportes defeated the Yamani-Arab Umayyads of Syria in 744 C.E; sacked the Yamanis and their Jewish supporters from Syria. The Syrian-Jewish migrant tribes Dan, Naphtali, Gad, and Asher resettled in Nigeria where they became known as Sambatyon Jews.[citation needed] In 1484 and 1667 Judeans and Zebulonians from Portugal and Libya respectively joined Sambatyon Jews of Nigeria. Thus, Nigerian Jews originated from the following six Israelite tribes: Judah, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher and Zebulon.[citation needed] It is interesting to note that these six tribes are the same tribes Moses repeated their names twice when he blessed the Children Of Israel. These six tribes mentioned above are The House Of Judah and the children of Israel his companions (Ezekiel 37:16. Those remaining six tribes not mentioned above are The House Of Ephraim and the children of Israel his companion (Ezekiel 37:16)." cheesy cheesy cheesy

Igbos are not Israelites. It was the white men that started this falsehood and some Igbos have fallen victim of unnecessary Jewish complex. Let us not kill our true identity and our unborn children wil think we are Jewish.

This is a leftover of what we call Hamiticx Hypothesis in history. Hausa says their ancestors came from Baghdad, Yoruba claim either Mecca or Egypt while Igbo claim Syria. Question is, does it mean that civilisation originated only in the oriental?

Lalasticla, Mogidi, Obinoscopy please take this to FP abeg

Bayajidda in Hausa mythology is not the Hausa progenitor but rather an organiser I think of some sorts. Don't forget he met some people when he came so I think his legend is better suited at explaining our Afro-Asiatic language and not ancestry. Very few hausas claim hausas migrated from somewhere. Leave us out of this madness.
