that is not true Michelle Obama trace her root in Guinea. go and and check it again they're both travelling there this year. in

GHKWAME1:
Very instructive to note that Michelle Obama traces her root to northern Ghana,(forgot the tribe), she did not need a DNA to confirm this since their ancestors passed down their tribe name from generations.

Safe to say Cameroonian slaves were the ones transported to the united states.

not only Cameroon slave, many other slaves too. the record shows that the Bamileke and Tikar Cameroon slaves were the HD maybe the Caviar of slave. they describe them to be bodily well build, white teeth some how more obedient and more put, and less sick. its said that some of slave master went on not to even mix them with other slave to avoid any disease contamination. that is why the Tikar/Bamileke were mostly for the best market in north America. and they knew how to hold their statute being slave. some even went to offer a deal to their masters. as soon they could speak fluently, they liked to cut a limited number of year of hard work to reach their freedom in a contract if you can call it so in exchange of some high productivities in the farm whatever they were put to do. strategy that pay off for them as many made it to raise families. meanwhile other slaves women and men, were ready to die trying to take control at the first chance, or run and be hunted down and hang.

i hear ya bruv but still doe, em dna tests is as bogus as a 2 dollar bill

you're wrong I did the research myself, on Google if you enter something like "African American Celebrities" tracing their African Ancestry "
Cameron get at least 04 to 07 in 10 results following by Sierra Leone. and if some want maybe to say that Nigeria contributed more slave back in the day, if you dig little more. the record shows that many Nigerian slaves were mostly revolted and worst, suicidal. before diseases, many were shot alone the way, from the Biafra shore to the farm on the work place overseas. its estimated that on 100 Nigerian slave, only between 55 to 70 made it touching other shore between what many continue to pay for their rebellious attitude, and did not make it to have children. that maybe some how explain a lot.

lol

hahahahaha!! how someone looks Igbo and not Akan or Mendes. they (Igbos) have two noses? is there any special mark (micro puce) on Igbo face? some people are crazy out there. this person looks Igbo bla bla bla! a good looking or ugly Igbo is just like every other black African, nothing special about them as long they keep their mouth shut.

Seems like majority are Cameroon descent. I was wtching YouTube videos of people that did the DNa test and lots of the results were mainly west african stocks. Majority were made of these 7 countries. Ivory/Ghana, Benin/Togo, Senegal, Cameroon/Congo and Nigeria stock and sometimes you will find one with little Senegalese d lineage

what means Ivory/Ghana? Benin/Togo, and not Benin/Nigeria or Nigeria/Congo? I know where this come from, I heard that the Comp. call ""Ancestry Composition of African American"" is biased maybe infiltrated to give more percentage to Nigeria. I watched some people complaining after taken a second test came out to be way different from what they first got from ""Ancestry Composition of African American"" I'm still looking into it though.

Nigeria giant of africa since before colonisation- we were just raiding all the contries around us and were selling them into slavery- from cameroun to guinea- that now forms the reason why we are not liked by our neighbours, we have always been out smarting the other african countries-

are you really sober writing this, or you're just kidding

meanwhile Africans are here claiming they are sons and daughters of isaac and jacob.....

and then what wrong whit that, aren't they? I believe I'm one of them

Dominionng:
