Same way you read that Buhari is Jubril and ESN shot down helicopter in Orlu And rushed to post it here..

That's how true it is.

Anywhere on this planet you see black people where 70% are dark and 30-40% are brown to light skin naturally, they have Igbo blood. Also where their men are muscular, broad shoulders, big chest, strong and hairy, all evidence of high testosterone and very good in sports, they have Igbo blood. Igbos belong to a speciifc type of black people called Black Hebrews or Israelite, very different from Hamite/African blacks who are Yorubas and Hausa.

You will find these Igbo blood largely in African Americans, Caribbeans and Liberians. These people look just like Igbos, and nothing like Yorubas, Hausa-Fulani, e.t.c. Also you will find Igbo blood in Igodomigodo Edo state ( the Afamai, Esan, Fugar, Ogbona), who are different and looking nothing like Benin people with Yoruba blood. The Igodomigodo like Igbos come in 70% dark skin and 30% brown to light skin. The Benin Edo people come in 99.99999999% very dark skin like Yorubas or Sudanese.

[s]But Yoruba presence more obvious in Haitian politics and religion, the Haitian revolution was actually started by a Yoruba man bookman, who encouraged the slaves with the presence of Ogun, Yoruba god of war.
Today, Ogun is one of the prominent national deity of Haiti.

Well Igbo's are not the more concentrated African tribe at Haiti but the Fon people of Benin republic who share ancestry with the Yoruba people.

The Haitian religion is called Voodoo, the etymology from the Fon word which means ' spirits'[/s].

kovic20:


Here they come again with deception and twisting history. When have anything Yoruba started a revolution? Start by taking Kwara from Fulani. Haition revolution has been documented and started by Toussaint louverture and Jean-Jacques Dessalines, both Igbo blood.

what I said was a researched truth and I don't give a damn about your opinion.

Researched truth from Afonja media.

False narrative. Toussaint L'oveture was a slave of Igbo descent.

was Toussaint L'overture the only leader of the rebellion? more over, I never argued that there is no presence of Igbo descendants, but that they are not the only one, in fact greater number of Haitian population had Fon ancestry, and the Fons shares ancestry with Yoruba people, this obvious in the heavy impact of the Yoruba-Fon religious structure of Haiti which birthed the popular vodun religion.
