Read up on the Osu-Caste system in Igbo tradition.

Most of the slaves that came from Igboland were osu.



Their descendants today are still fighting for their rights.
Yep I’ve spoken about them a few times but I’m no expert

We really gotta start researching that part of our history

Their history is fascinating and I even try and be mindful of the market days just out of respect

It’s good at keeping you grounded and in tune with the world

All FBA have Igbo ancestry

From what I understand, the Igbo are supposedly the most hated in Africa

Starting to think there’s a correlation


That's false lol

Looks like you're trying to get back on good graces with Nigerians after you've been shytting on them for the past year on this site :deadrose:

I shyt on Nigerians every chance I get.

I also big up the Igbo every chance I get.

All of the Igbo here already know that, stupid.

Put my name and Igbo in the search.

You just might learn something.

Is it a surprise to anyone that the descendants of enslaved people can trace their ancestry back to West Africa?
Our people immigrated from North America to Nigeria thousands of years ago using Moorish maps , then they were kidnapped and shipped back to America during the Atlantic slave trade.:troll:

This is not true. Over 1 million Igbos were sold into slavery between 1700-1900. The majority of them being osu is demographically impossible given that Igboland’s population by 1900 was just over 3 million people.

Enslaved Africans of Igbo extraction were captured by the Aro Confederacy, Ijaws, Benin/Edo, Igala, and fellow Igbos regardless of title.
