Fascinating Facts On The Jewish Origin Of The Igbos

The Igbos are an ethnic Nationality with a population of about 25 million that occupy the south eastern region of the federal republic of Nigeria. For several centuries there have been claims and assertions from both historians and social scholars that this very ingenious ethnic nationality is a lost tribe of Israel? considering the undeniable cultural, behavioural, religious and linguistic similarities between the Igbos and the Jews as first described formally in a book published in Britain in the late 18th century by Olaudah Equiano, an Igbo ex-slave who lived between 1745 and 1797.
These 10 factual assertions are pointers to the ethnic linkage between the Jews and their lost brothers who now dwell in an area of latitude 40 and 140 degrees North of the Equator and longitude 30 and 140 degrees east of the Greenwich meridian, south of the Sahara.
