It must have been difficult for those kids born
in America to grow up without coming home
for years, some of these Nigerians abroad must
have drooled often at the mention of coming
back to Africa.
However, because of the cost and sometimes,
logistics involved, most of them resort to
staying forever in the United States of America.
The Washington DC chapter of Anambra State
Association USA has done something
remarkable by the construction of Igbo village
in Staunton Virginia.
This is totally amazing because it was built
with mud , making it a typical African home in
America.
One of the organizers have this to say: “We are
building ulo aja in America in the way it used
to be in Igbo land to show our children here
our cultural Heritage.
“In due time , we will not see these kind of
houses in Igbo land but you have to travel to
United States to see our mud houses.
“These Igbo Village is located in Staunton Virginia in US.
Basil Chiji Okafor, added “Thanks for all the
effort to re-direct the attention of the younger
generation to their original homeland. Very
important, especially as we have lost
thousands of our war children to Gabon.

The workers were brought over from Igboland, to build the huts.

There was a thread about it at the time, somewhere.


The soil and foliage get more tropical looking as you head towards southern US.
