Mazi Nnamdi Kanu said Igbos originated from Israel. Prof. Afigbo said Igbos originated from Nupe.Both Kanu and Afigbo are right ( no need for argument). The Igbos came from so many places.

Some came from Israel and Nubian Egypt (Nri); Some came from Nri went to Ile Ife and returned to the East (Anioma/Lucumi); some came from Ibibio (Aro); some came from Igala (Olu). But they all melted into this great culture we call Igbo.We are proud to be Igbo. Enemies of the Igbos should stop trying to divide us. It won’t work. Ncha ncha!

No empirical evidence exists to back up either claim.

IPOBIANS being confusing themselves and fooling each other with lies since 1960 B.C

GQman:
Igbo are a people who migrated from all over the world but forged a unified culture and way of life!

A tuoro omara omara. If you hint the wise, they will understand and become wiser.

A tuoro ofeke, o fenye isi nofia. If you hint the foolish, they will say foolish things.

GoroTango:
No empirical evidence exists to back up either claim.

All the Igbo subgroups listed up they claim at least partial ancestry to the non Igbo peoples/places there.
