English is not a measure of someone's intelligence or wisdom or knowledge, this where Africans get wrong. It's just someone's culture. Be proud of your culture. Indians and Chinese refused British culture but embraced the technology....see where they are today. Africans should wake up from slumber

[@chinedugodwin3017]

There was a Kenyan lady that came to my village in Ohafia (to shoot film)in Abia State .She was so happy and she even said she will like to base there because of our food and our lifestyle.

[@trommelbiel]

My first time hearing about this. Nwanna this is heart-warming. Continue with your research. This is what KZbin should be all about

[@ChroniclerBriefs]

As a linguist I am always intrigued by similarities of Luo and Igbo names for example Kenya's military chief the late General Ogolla while Nigerian navy chief Admiral Ogalla etc. Also other names like Okechi, Odera, onyi, Odinga, amadi etc are found in both Luos and Igbos. Also the name Anambra comes from the river called Anam. By the way Luo name for a large water body is "nam". So let's hope some elders will clarify the relationship between these two tribes.

[@kinguche9208]

💯💯

[@michaelprincechinedu222]

That it sounds the same doesn't mean it share the same meaning. What the meaning of those similar names then let's cross check it with the Igbo ones

[@lakersgroup3212]

This is great

[@markosanto]

wow, how interesting! Has any Lou people done dna test? I would like to see the result. my guess is that they're the same dna. And offspring of ancient Israelites since many Atlantic slave dna are linked to Igbo people who accepted worldwide as ancient Israelites. so cool!

[@user-hy4xz1qt9h]

These people are related to Edo/Bini/Esan people Simply search Luo and Esan you will find many people who have done dna to have esan blood in them

[@RobertNwachukwu-kk3kt]

You failed to ask her the major question. Which is, "How many market days do they have and what do they called those days"

[@alvanalvino]

That changes with culture. My ancestors were from Benin city from Benin empire and we split our family in half and marched away with civilians populations and armies to found a new kingdom in the Niger delta amongst the Igbo. A thousand years later I have two ancestral family communities in Nigeria. One family home the oldest speaks only Benin peoples languages. We kept the name but speak Igbo today because we lived amongst Igbo, adopted Igbo practices and worship Benin and Kemet’s ancient Gods. Unless you really dissect our customs if you know us well enough you can mistake us for Igbo. DNA tests still says that 95% of us are Edo and Isan despite our inter marriages with the Igbo and Yoruba. The Igbo call us Niger Delta Igbo, some of us are, my ancestors aren’t. We know who we are. These peoples might be a branch of Igbo that refused to migrate to West Africa. So if that were to be true they might have adopted new cultures and only in similar ways in the language that must have evolved can you find traces. That takes extensive research and DNA tests unless one of their elders tell you there story. We know for a fact that we left relatives behind in places like South Africa, Namibia, the Sudan and the Congo us Nigerians when we migrated west and sent some back there during the age of expansion in what is called the first wave of the early Bantu migrations. Our own early wave of migration to West Africa started over 25,000 years ago from imperial Kemet following the prophecy of the fall of Kemet and the possible extinction of its peoples. We had only 3 options, (1) stay and die, (2) wipe out all potential enemy races in genocides and, (3) split our race and have dominion over all of Africa so whatever happens we survive somewhere and avoid extinction and let the Gods punish our enemies and their offspring in retribution. Now these Gods have a funny time table. Tomorrow could mean 10,000 years. We obeyed them and kept it a secret is imperial bloodlines of the Gods that rules Kemet as it was forbidden knowledge. We managed our own extinction and separated our families several times. DNA can tell of it was 500 generations ago, 100 generations ago or 50 generations ago for various separations. When Kemet fell the last waves knew where to go after the last indigenous king of Kemet lost his kingdom. The last of them who refused to go perished as was prophesied. Divinity will avenge them: they will reincarnate under a God for vengeance. Could be a thousand years; it will come to pass make no mistake of it. We do not control how our ancestors fight for us. That is why we have not prayed to them for vengeance and justice. Because we are afraid of what they will do to our enemies. Now that our race is connecting again we must document our oral histories, DNA tests and archeological diggings without involving the evil Caucasian race. Palm wine for example is consumed all over Africa.

You're welcome dear

[@TinakishO]

When Luos were migrating from Bahr El Ghazal near the Egypt border in the 15th century, a group settled in Sudan, others went to Ethiopia, another group moved to DRC, some traveled down to settle in Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania. There was a group that traveled towards West Africa. The historians managed to find the last of the Luos in Cameroon but that group is being phased out due to intermarriages. The historians are still at it trying to trace the lost tribe of Luos in other regions still.

[@chisom1481]

When Africans turn their 😅history upside down, I feel sad, Then I console myself by saying that it is out of ignorance. The whole humanity started from Africa, which had been proven and not in dispute, but you hear lazy Africans saying that their ancestors migrated from Israel or Egypt. Homo Habilis, Homo erectus, Homo sapiens were all Africans. Even the recent evidence from President Putin showing the :"Mary and Jesus" are black people, have not sank in yet to Africans who have been brainwashed for so long.

[@panafrican.nation]

I'm Kikuyu but I'm very interested in this history. If I'm willing to bet that there's a relation between Luos and people in Senegal, Gambia, Mali, Guinea etc. Their languages sound Nilotic, but there are no shared words that I've found. So any connection must be from more than a couple thousand years ago, when the Sahara desert was greener.

Yeah! I am Igbo, and have some Kikuyu business friends. I really love their hustle and group think.

Arabs came late in Egyptian history.

@@Aluochjakitere Well said. All African people developed the civilisation due to our diversity. May dynasties of it was ruled my by direct ancestors and our direct ancestors whose descendants founded the mighty Benin empire of Nigeria rode with my ancestor pharaoh Narmar when upper and lower Ket was united. I remember one of my past lives as we also reincarnate. Memories of when the commemorative pallets of Narmar were made. We are as old as time. Our race will only rise again when we unite all over Agatha. Then we will help our over 400 million stolen children in the diasporas, the African Americans and all melanin dominant human beings in the American continents, in Australia and in Asia. These civilisation of those who oppressed us will self destruct. Then from their arches we will rise again to reach the levels of our most ancient ancestors. Africa must start to get ready to build that foundations today. I am going to visit your people someday and travel across Africa. Bridges must be built, our collective future as a unified people rests on our unification as one strong indivisible melanin dominant peoples we are the only original human beings of planet earth. We are the children of the first men and women to walk the earth. 24 are over 2 million years old and we are not a slave race. We are the future of humanity. We are Africans. I see you family. Much love. ❤️ 🇳🇬🌍✊🏿

[@darlingtonegbu7391]

Kenneth Nwache, that lady sitting by your side is that same lady that dances a lot on her KZbin platform. Ask her if she is married. We Igbos need to start intermingling with our relatives in other countries of Africa and the rest of the world.

[@Bigmann3177]

My own surname is even Okelue. Can you imagine!!!

[@alegugodwin7253]

Ask them to name the body parts, water, wine and such stuffs.

[@joeomemo7440]

My name is Joe Omemo, Luo from Kenya. I believe that there are two things that never change, and those are names and culture. I believe that the luos of this world and Igbos are related

[@lawrenceonuorah6019]

I met a girl called Doris in South Korea as we were speaking our language she was very angry with her boyfriend that we were speaking every one of her. We asked her to repeat what we spoke, and we got it correctly, but it was not the same meaning. We convinced her that it was not the same meaning, she saw with us. . But she told us that she was speaking Bambara

[@Eymalex1831]

Names like Ochuku, Okocha, Okori, I watched from Nigerian Movies exist in in Northern Uganda. I don't know where Singer #RudeBoy is an Igbo. Because we also have a big artist in Uganda called #Coco_Finger and both have got surname "Okori"

Corn dough mixed with casava dough is a Ghanaian food called banku.

[@aaronjuspin3681]

Please read “ the history of the central luo before the Aconya” it covers mostly the east and Central African luo migration patterns but there are points at which certain groups broke off and moved westward. Aconya in Acholi means the period before the coming of the white man and the Arab traders- Aaron Ochan Ochola- proud Acholi from Uganda

[@josephatutana3076]

But why's that all territory occupied by luo culture is ever in fighting from Sudan, Uganda,DRC and Ethiopia accept Kenya and Tanzania.

[@damianohale9778]

Certain rituals make Igbos (Ndigbo) distinct such as “how a new born is presented” e.g. within baby’s first 8 days- male circumcision, giving of name, how and who in the community performs these rituals?

[@haroldrobertsowee7926]

LUO, Lango in particular, they give 4 days offsight for a baby girl and 3 days offsight for baby boy.... Those are very important rituals at the time of birth of a baby girl or a baby boy

[@chikamsookeru1423]

Where you born after twins?😅😅😅

[@kennethogolla3606]

There are Luo in Kenya, DRC, South Sudan, Ethiopia and Tanzania. We are likely to be about 30 million all across these states The similarities are striking. For example when a prominent Luo dies, there is a ceremony called TERO BURU whereby cows are driven through the homestead by warriors wielding spears. I have seen similar ceremonies in Igbo movies would you say my observation is correct?
