Historical Records Shows that the Igbo tribe Is 2550 Years Older Than Yoruba Nation In Nigeria.

The Igbo tribe is unequivocally 2,550 years older than the Yorubas in Nigeria in terms of existence and settlement. It is also a recognized fact that among Nigeria's 386 ethnic nationalities, none is a contemporary or competitor to the Igbo Nation regarding age of existence or settlement.

In summary, historical, forensic, and verifiable records have conclusively shown that the Igbo Nation is 2,550 years older than the Yoruba Nation; 2,250 years older than the Hausa Nation; 3,140 years older than the Fulani Nation; and 550 years older than the Bini Nation. Most other ethnic nationalities studied are relatively younger in terms of existence or settlement within the country. The Bini Nation is the closest to the Igbo Nation in age, being only 550 years younger or less, compared to the Igbo's 3,469 years of existence and settlement in Nigeria.

The Agbor People of present-day Delta State were initially the Ominije People with Bini origins, similar to how the Arochukwu People in Igbo Land were initially under Ibibio ownership, which changed during the Aro or Igbo-Ibibio wars of the 1600s. The Agbor People lost their ancient Ogele Kingship Dynasty, established in 701 BC, to Igbo warriors around 1250 AD; the first Igbo King, Ebonka, was crowned as the first "Dein of Agbor" in 1260 AD. It is noteworthy that the Igbo People had existed for 1,450 years before the birth of Jesus Christ around 001 BC/001 AD and 3,436 years after his death around 33 AD. Conversely, the Yoruba Nation was established in Nigeria approximately 1,099 years after the birth of Jesus Christ and 1,066 years after his death.
