Progenitor of Igbos Came from the Sky Before the Deluge - Igbo Professors
Did you know that two Igbo Professors, Adiele Eberechukwu Afigbo (22 November 1937 – 9 March 2009) and Catherine Obianuju Acholonu (26 October 1951 – 18 March 2014) said Igbos originated from Nephilims, offspring of the "sons of God" and the "daughters of men" before the Deluge, according to Genesis 6:4 of the Holy Bible. That they landed on south eastern Nigeria from the sky even before the birth of Abraham. They were descendants from the Fallen Angels. Therefore, these two Igbo scholars dismissed the myth of Igbos being Jews. In fact, the hypothesis of Professors Afigbo and Acholonu is in accordance with the myth of Ọ̀ràézè Ǹrì or Kingdom of Nri that Nri's royal founder, Eri, is said to be a 'sky being' that came down to earth and then established their civilization.
The origin of Benin people is also traced to the Igodomigodo Kingdom of Ogiso sky-kings whose descendant, Prince Ekaladerhan later became Izoduwa or Oduduwa, the first Oni in uhe (Ilé-Ifẹ̀). No wonder they said: "Oduduwa was an emissary from the community of Oke-Ora (Ora mountain), the easternmost part of the Ife cultural area towards the Northeastern Ijesa people. He descended from the Hills on a chain, earning the oriki 'atewonro' meaning 'one who descends on a chain."
These Nephilims landed in the same location of Igboland and Igodomigodo. Now you know who built the Eredo, the largest man made structure on earth reported to be 160 kilometres long and in places tower seven storeys high, complete with guardhouses, moats and garrison barracks. They enclose an area the size of Greater London, or 30 times bigger than Manhattan.

Genesis 6:4: The Nephilim were in the earth in those days and also after that when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men and they bore children to them; the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown.
Numbers 13:33 And there we saw the Nephilim, the sons of Anak, who come of the Nephilim and we were in our sight as grasshoppers and so we were in their sight.’
The video of the recent discovery of giant skeletons shocked the world.
The discoveries confirm the scriptures of the Holy Bible.

Sadiq, Nura and Mohammed from Katsina State in northern Nigeria.
After seeing this photograph, Sadiq embraced me in a way I could only understand as his innocent expression of friendship. He is the youngest, but I see the composure of a leader in him. I can understand this, because at about his age I was among hundreds of #Igbo children in a refugee camp for IDPs in 1968 in the defunct Republic of #Biafra, and I left to find my way back to our village. What no other child did and I walked into an abandoned village after the Nigerian soldiers had defeated the #Biafran soldiers. The details are in my memoir, "Biafran Child" coming out soon.
We are all innocent children of God.
None of us asked to be born poor or rich; black or white; Christian or Muslim and so no one should judge us by our class, race or religion.
We all "Children of God", which is the title of my first published book in 1988.

The current population of Nigeria is more than 191 million people and projected to increase to over 411 million in 2050.
This is scary, because a nation that cannot control the population will not be able to manage the resources for sustainable development.
Family planning is the only solution for population control. But the poor masses who are the most vunerable Nigerians don't practice family planning. They breed many children they cannot feed and cannot afford their formal education. That is why according to the UNICEF, more than 10.5 million children are out of school in Nigeria, which is the worst record in the world. The Ministry of Education reported that 50% of the cumulative 20 million out of school children in the world are in Nigeria.
Malala Yousafzai, the youngest Nobel laureate and champion of girl education has said we should declare a state of emergency for the education of the alarming population of more than 6 million underprivileged girls out of school in the country.
The humanitarian emergency will be beyond our control if we don't stop the poor majority from overbreeding.
Nigeria Will Post the Second Largest Global Rise in Population at 220 Million in 2050
PRB Projects 2050 World Population at 9.8 Billion
Youth Population to Reach 1.4 Billion
WASHINGTON, Aug. 15, 2017 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The world population will reach 9.8 billion in 2050, up 31 percent from an estimated 7.5 billion now, according to projections included in the 2017 World Population Data Sheet from the Population Reference Bureau (PRB).

Countries with the largest populations 2017 and 2050
PRB's 2050 projections show Africa's population will more than double to 2.6 billion by 2050 and account for more than half (57 percent) of the global population increase by that date. The number of people in Asia will rise about 750 million to 5.2 billion, while Europe (including all of Russia) is headed for a population decline from 745 million to 736 million. The population of the Americas is seen increasing to 1.2 billion from 1 billion now, and Oceania (which includes Australia and New Zealand) would rise from 42 million to 63 million.
