AGULERI THE ANCESTRAL HOMELAND OF NDIGBO

Описание: A lot of communities in Igboland claim the ancestral title for the Igbo race. There have been claims and counter claims on this title which eventually prompted this documentary. We visited Nri which is widely recognized by most people as the progenitor of the Igbo race and likewise Aguleri to see things for ourselves and hear from the horse’s mouth, the paramount rulers of the kingdoms. Eri who gave birth to Aguleri(his first son), Nri and others is the 5th son of Gad, who is the 7th son of Jacob of Israel(Genesis 46:15-18 and Numbers 26:16:18), migrated all the way from Israel and settled in Aguleri. His other sons migrated from Aguleri and founded other communities in Igboland and beyond. We shall see proof of some of these migrations in this documentary. Eri lived, died and was buried in Aguleri and his tomb is still preserved in Aguleri till today.
