Nonsense, they're not going to do anything. Some professors have conducted studies about the site many years ago even before the current researchers, and the government and its agents are showing a sudden interest as if it's the first time something has been written or done about the site.
I graduated from that dept. Iron smelting sites abound in the Nsukka cultural area with a C14 date of 2000BP.

These people have sites that predates the earliest existence of jews as a people , but serious complex issues have destroyed all their sense of self worth.

They now want to be jews by force.

..Sets to recruit 1000 youths

The Enugu State government yesterday took a major step towards protecting and exploiting the Iron smelting site discovered at Otobo Ugwudinoke, Lejja, Nsukka Local Government Area of the state.

Briefing newsmen after a presentation made to the State Executive Council by an Associate Professor in Department of Archaeology, University of Nigeria Nsukka (UNN), Dr. Pamela Eze-Uzomaka, the Commissioner for Culture and Tourism, Hon. Rita Mbah disclosed that the Lejja Iron smelting site is “one of the oldest in the world, which dates back to about 2000 BC”.

Hon. Mbah stated the Gov. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi administration is passionate, committed and delighted at the revelation made by Dr. Eze-Uzomaka, who she said has been carrying out research on the site.

The Culture and Tourism Commissioner announced that the council has in a quick response to the presentation, set up a 3-man committee that would visit the site and devise the best means of protecting it “as a world heritage centre”.

She added that the state government intends to construct the road leading the site to be able to exploit its natural contents as “a tourism site and money spinning venture”, stressing that a lot of other benefits are accruable from it.

Also speaking, the Associate Professor told newsmen that she was at the EXCO meeting with her team to brief the state government on the outcome of their findings, saying that they “were able to get over 40 nationals from about 18 countries of the world to come and help us excavate Lejja site”.

Dr. Eze-Uzomaka disclosed that one of their findings was “radio carbon dates”, which according to her places the Lejja as one of the oldest Iron smelting sites in the world.

“This discovery means that Enugu State has one of the oldest iron smelting sites in the world and this site is being visited by so many countries of the world. I have travelled to some parts of the world, giving lectures about these sites and yet our people do not know about what they have.

“So we have come here to tell the Government of Enugu State that we have something here in Enugu State worth protecting, because people are coming from all over the world to visit this site.

While appreciating the commitment of Gov. Ugwuanyi’s administration towards the project, she also called for the collaboration of the state government with the National Commission for Museum and Monument and the Tourism board for the protection of the area as a world recognized tourism site.

Similarly, the Commissioner for Environment, Amb. Fidel Ayogu, also told newsmen that the council approved the rehabilitation of the popular Murtala Muhammed Park - a triangular piece of land at New Market, Enugu - to beautify, preserve and make it a standard recreational venture that will be a centre of attraction for those entering into the city of Enugu through Milliken Hill or New Market road.

The Commissioner for Information, Mr. Ogbuagu Anikwe, stated that the council was updated by the Coordinator of Enugu Clean Team Project in respect of the ongoing engagement exercise of 1000 youths to clean up the state, disclosing that before long “Enugu will become if not the cleanest state in Nigeria”.

Mr. Anikwe added that the council approved funds for the upgrade of the Enugu State Emergency Call Centre for greater service to the people especially in time of emergency.

He equally told newsmen that the council approved funds for the renovation of the dilapidated building where the Enugu State Archives was relocated for effective service delivery.

That's what my grand mum also told me, "anti by aburu ndi Jew"
They have always believed it before the creation of Israel as a country

Though I'm finding it hard to believe now since I stop believing in God and need concrete prove for anything











Apart from so many books n articles written by various renouned Anthropologists around the world about the igbos being Hebrews, I have a proof that supersedes them all.

My great grandfather n my grandfather told us that we are Hebrews. I don't doubt them because they never used televisions, radio or internet in their entire lives.......And yet without any connection to the outside world, They told us that we are Bible Hebrews.

The knowledge they passed to us is more valid than any other information online or offline.

We are a Hebrew bloodline, We don't care if u believe it or not. It's who we are.

engrchykae:
did you ever doubt that igbos have reached sophisticated civilization eons ago?
Its only a civilized people that will have a highly democratic structure where the powers of state are shared between the chief priest(religious),the igwe(executive) and the legislative(nzes and ozos)igwe's cabinet.
No standing army to avoid abuse of power by the ochiogha but in times of war,able bodied citizens volunteer to defend their collective interest because every igbo is a property owner at least in form of lands.
Our democracy surpassed that of the Greeks and what America claims to have.
Did i mention that every family have land which is the instrument of production and hence economic power is shared among indigenes.
NO WHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD CAN YOU FIND A PEOPLE AS THE IGBOS.
ITS EITHER THE EMIR OWNS THE LANDS AND RENTS IT TO HIS NOBLES OR THE OBA OWNS THE MAJOR LANDS OR THE RULERS OF EUROPE ESPECIALLY BRITAIN OWNS THE LAND AND RENT IT OUT TO FAVORED KNIGHTS AND NOBLES AS WHO MAKE RETURNS TO THE RULER AND GIVE THE EXPLOITED LOCALS WHO FARM HIS LANDS JUST WHAT WILL BARELY SUSTAIN THEM TO BE ALIVE AND WORK HIS FARM.
THAT'S WHY THE WEST BELIEVED THAT WE ARE A THREAT TO HER MAJESTY'S PROJECT NIGERIA

rafabenitez:
your level of knowledge and wisdom marvels me,why do i have this feeling that its d real NNAMDI KANU BEHIND DIS MONIKER.

nothernstar:
so to you the Jews are not up to 2000 years eh. The story of Jacob and his sons are less than 2000ys. You should go and buy sense that will help you stop hating people that did not know you exist. Else you die of highpa tension.

engrchykae:
I AM MUCH MORE WORSE THAN NNAMDI KANU.
I knew the history of our great race.
The sun is not only for Biafra but for Black Africa.
There is a reason the West call Africa the BLACK CONTINENT even though we are blessed with Much more SUNLIGHT than the rest of the world.
If the SUN rises,the fauna and flora of our blessed continent will thrive for the original man.
If Aba and nnewi can be industrious and innovative when all we can see is HALF OF A YELLOW SUN.
YOU CAN ONLY IMAGINE THE SITUATION WHEN THE SUN FULLY RISES.
I know the history and purpose of the igbo and since it was ordained by the CREATOR and known by our fathers who passed the VISION on by names of towns in igboland.
NO POWER IN BLACK AFRICA WILL STOP THE EMANCIPATION OF GOD'S PEOPLE

rafabenitez:
wow,im more than humbled,will be a pleasure to get to know you better,im a contemporary student of history,will be a pleasure to learn from the legends,but i still feel,ure nnamdi kanu,ure so learned,have not met any better

This is the instructions for the igboukwu group and each group took a word from the advice as a name of its people.
Uli means LINK between the igboukwu people that stopped in ihiala and the Oru people that starts from the strongman MGBIDI TO DIOBU IN RIVERS STATE.
The Oru himself told his people starting with mgbidi,he said.
You are the wall i am intend to build for the lasting memory of the Oru people.
The igboukwu man has a tendency to fight for land therefore the strongman mgbidi stayed guard against encroachment and as foreseen by the oru man,amorka people,a secondary migration of the igboukwu made attempts to encroach but mgbidi fought them off.

engrchykae:
am a production engrchyke from imo state but working in enugu.
I am currently doing a work on the history of our noble people,it will be like a book and i will also need good movie directors and philanthropists igbos to fund it as a movie,
it will be a masterclass,i want it to be like a series film.
As you can see from the vision and purpose,if anytown loses grip of its purpose or vision,it will start drifting into chaos and abuse.
The spirit is ONE.
I sensed that you were filled with goose bumps on seeing the purpose and vision of our great people.
For each of the towns to adhere to the instructions will give us the strength to continue the journey which is the greater mission of liberating Africa.
Our fathers are gods.

engrchykae:
will shall be chatting on this forum

engrchykae:
we should be communicating on this forum.
My name Israel,a graduate of polymers engineering and currently a production engineer here in Enugu.
Along the line i will give you my contact.
Anyway,look within you and find your talent and how you can use it to help the struggle.
When i first heard Mazi nnamdi kanu pray on radiobiafra,i was filled with goose bumps.
I asked myself,how can i help in the struggle,i looked within and realized that i have talent for writing,a wordsmith,therefore even though i studied engineering and is currently practising,i use my spare time to write.when am through i will try to give it to my brothers in the struggle.
As a brother in the struggle i would advice you to be suspicious of everyone because what you bear is a threat to the throne of wickedness.
Darkness and lies are never comfortable near light and truth,if the light is not strong enough,darkness will extinguish it.
Don't underestimate darkness...

before the invasion of his house,i saw him in dream where he dressed as a prophet with golden bell.
Ringing the bell and preaching but i couldn't hear what he was saying.
His clothes were sparkling glorious white and he was walking in the miry street but he was not stained by the dirts in the environment.
The military surrounded his house three days before invading the house.
I fear that he was abducted
