Some Jewish brothers have proved to Nnamdi Kanu that the Igbos have a Jewish heritage

- They reportedly showed him where Igbos are written in the Torah which is the central reference of Judaism

- Whether the Igbos have a Jewish heritage remains a controversy

Some Jewish brothers visited the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu. 

A Facebook user, Chinasa Nworu, who shared the photos wrote: “Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was surprised to see where Igbos are written in the Torah. The Jewish faithful visited him showed him how Igbos are Jews and are written in the Torah before the wicked Britain deleted it from the English Bible.”

For some time, there has been controversy on whether the Igbos have a Jewish heritage as they claim.

The Igbos claim to be one of the lost tribes of the Jewish family.

Reacting to this latest 'discovery', some people were happy with the discovery while some others criticized Kanu.

In February 2017, Jewish scientists were in Anambra state to conduct DNA tests to ascertain the possibility of an ancestral relationship between the Igbo people and Jews in Israel.

They were invited by the former president-general of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Dr Dozie Ikedife. 

Before Kanu was released from prison, one of his bail requirements was that he must produce three sureties, including a “highly respected and recognised jewish leader”.

A Jewish Rabbi had to be flown in from Port Harcourt to perfect the bail condition, after which he was released.
