ancient split-of between northern and southern Nigeriansmore pronounced “Cameroon/Congo” scores and relatively less significant “Benin/Togo” scoresdistinctive proportional mix of ancestral componentsmajor scientific papers suggesting genetic differentiationclear and discernible genetic differences among some of the West African populationsGurdasani et al., 2015 & Fortes-Lima et al. In Nigeria, the Hausa-Fulani account for about 30% of Nigeria’s population.The Yoruba live in southwestern Nigeria and the southern portion of neighboring Benin. This section is intended to This breakdown features the second highest amount of “Nigeria” I have observed. Except for one who’s possibly from River state. Some estimates put the number of slaves sent to the Americas from Nigeria at 3.5 million.After the Berlin Conference of 1884 and 1885, which parceled Africa out among European powers, Nigeria fell within the British sphere. If I landed in 10th century China and they made me King, I would describe myself as a son of Oduduwa because I know it will be traceable in future, not because he was my direct father.No one on Earth is purely genetically from one side, Nordic Europeans have some Sub saharan African in them and etc. His breakdown is looking extraordinarily divers. it is important to keep stressing that even within ethnic groups, especially large ones like the Igbo and Yoruba, you will find a HIGH degree of individual variation as everyone has unique family trees and different levels of deep ancestry dating from a proto-ethnic era.

Except that the socalled “Cameroon/Congo” region is showing up even more pronounced. Even more so when going by ethnic background! Although there is valid reason to assume at least a partial Igbo background. There is evidence of ironworking from around 600 B.C. However when taking into the account the background of this person as well as the disclaimers I have already mentioned this breakdown actually makes a lot of sense. However it seems not far-fetched to assume that Nigeria and perhaps especially the socalled Unfortunately Ancestry has not always been able to make  the distinction between _____________________________________________________________________________Nigeria is said to have more than 200 ethnic groups so obviously it is very much ethnically diverse!
Quite rare for Nigerians. most of my southern Nigerian samples received substantial “Benin/Togo” scoresthe labeling of ancestral categories in DNA testing is bound to be a complex affair also my 29 Igbo samples usually showed significant amounts of “Benin/Togo”originally migrants from somewhere in southern Nigeria“Benin/Togo” component represents shared DNA that originated during ancient times “Cameroon/Congo” marker of southeast Nigerian ancestry?“Cameroon/Congo” represents the third biggest genetic componentto distinguish the “average” Yoruba from the “average” Igbo. The breakdown on display is atypical compared with what i have seen for Nigerians and especially for Igbo’s.

The Igbo and Yoruba peoples from the Bights of Benin and Biafra constituted roughly one-third of all enslaved Africans transported to the Americas.The Igbo people are another large and influential ethnic group in Nigeria. It would in fact imply that the so-called The “Cameroon/Congo” region is rather broadly based and open for multiple interpretation. This first chart shows how many times the socalled “Nigeria” region was reported with the highest amount by AncestryDNA. Therefore You can also see the breakdown of the Nigerian results shown below in my spreadsheet via this link:I am aware that ethnicity can be a sensitive topic. The DNA results for this person as well as several other results in my survey have been enabled by the ... Take note also how for 7 out of 18 Yoruba results “Benin/Togo” showed up as biggest region.

Examining the origin of rh negative blood and Neanderthal DNA within the Yoruba population may help determine the origin of rh negative blood. As I always say your DNA results are only as good as the next update I have no certainty about the ethnic background of this person. However more My sample size has increased more than five times compared to my initial findings (The three ethnic groups I have selected for this research question (Hausa-Fulani, Yoruba and Igbo) are As can be seen from table 5.1 above the main regional component for all three ethnic survey groups is “Nigeria”.
As a yoruba man, I have always laughed at the historical claims that Oduduwa's father, Lamurudu, migrated from the middle east. It might be genuinely signaling a recent Ghanaian family line. Instead the It should be clear therefore that for logical reasons the genetic origins of actual Nigerians are not fully covered by just only the region “Nigeria”. It just sounded laughable at that time.
