And married to the descendant of the same people who shipped your ancestors and enslaved them on platations. I guess you have forgiven them so what's the point.

That is the question we should be asking. What they do there is to attach a White Spouse to any African American who is gifted, talented or "outstanding" or an "achiever" in any endeavour: music, sports, or professions.

I guess, his quest for his identity & roots came after his marriage(s).

why dem no kidnap dangote

Does he have the wealth and protection of Dangote? Make Dangote expose himself to boys na if dem no go carry am. People wey eyes dey red and shook wey carry president uncle. Make Dangote go there go form untouchable na.

Abegi, I don't value Nigerians who hide from the truth just because they hope burrying their heads in sand would mean no one can know they are there. As if you live in sambisa with Shekau all these years.

not all slaves were forcefully abducted, some parents sold their stubborn kids, some sold because of poverty, some were sold because they became christians, some committed heinous crimes punitively sold, so what is his root supposed to say? the best he can get is an "Oru" tag another discrimination tag of igbos, he is excited in yankee very soon reality will dawn on him.

Don't be miopic . This argument you ate bringin had been robustly disputed times without numbers . Reason being if there where European buyers there won't be sellers . So directly or u directly . The European s foiled the slave trade .

When you throw out a logic in public, you need an average IQ to make sense to yourself let alone to others, "if there is no buyer, there wont be seller", what kinda dumb logic is that?
I guess because someone is willing to pay good money, you will sell your balls?
Our ancestors saw an opportunity and took it, why didn't they use the money they got to buy Europeans as well, are they not willing buyers?

All of you Africans and Nigerians that take ur culture for granted and wish to leave and abandon ur country cos of the poor standard of living won't understand how this man feels.
Imagine being born without any roots,not knowing where ur ancestors come from,no culture and being treated like slaves in your own "country".
Nigeria may be bad but at least I'm Igbo and I identify with my culture.Thats something money can never buy.
Nice one by Our Lost Brother.
I think it's time Europe and America start paying Africa for the evil they did to us. Slavery is criminality. Sometimes I wonder what could hv happen in this era assuming it was Africa that enslaved the white.

Go change your profile picture and no dey support suspected cultists. undecided

Nigeria is very safe and cool. All Afro Americans are welcome. They have enjoyed America enough, they need to come back home and give room for others to go too. During slave trade, we were taken by force. Nowadays, we are forcing ourselves to be taken. In the past we were killed because we didn't want to go, nowadays we die because we want to go there by all means available.

An African American man from Abia state has said that he's visiting Nigeria next year 2018 after being based in the United States all his life. David Love who is a US citizen, said his ancestors were captured/shipped to America for slavery and worked on a plantation so that he might return to his homeland one day as his relatives have provided him with traditional attire for him to dress like an Igbo man in the US.

Below is what he shared on Facebook;

I am African American but my ancestor was captured and shipped to North America for enslavement. It was here that my ancestor survived on a slave plantation in Virginia so that I might one day return to my homeland. I am descended from the Igbos of Umuahia and my clan is within Umuopara.

My DNA has been connected my distant cousin Obie Uwadineke who is from Umunwanwa. Mazi Ikem C. Eronini has provided me with the clothing so that I can dress as an Igbo man. I am returning 2018 to visit.

You have commented to the best of your brain power and really there isn't any tangible substance there.
You didn't make any point.

Tha Logic is true of all sense . I tale it you got offended by my choice of word *Miopic *and you are lashing out. Even in SS1 Or economics 101 Demand attracts supply . Of there is demand for my balls there would be supply for it.
U said something in the lines of why did they not use the money they got to buy white slaves Answer :There was no demand for white slaves in Africa then.
Now even after the end of slave trade . Africans still faught wars and took captive but there was no demand for them hence there was no market for them . .It's this same Logic the police in the UK and US apply to arrest kerb crawlers . I have given examples of at least 4 logics.
