Wow When this gentleman told me about the Luo I was sceptical but now an convinced with all these testimonies coming up

​@@erinahtlwhere this tribe is located I want to visit this place. I believe in history and facts not in this white people book of lies, full of contradiction. I am a mix race my mum to and she's looking like Somalian or Ethiopian people. The piramides,They are older than this Christian church in Ethiopia and older than all the ancient monuments in the world Based on this principle, these people cannot have come from the story of Solomon or Abraham,The logic is that the story of the ancestors is what gave the story of Abraham or Moses.

I was soo joyed by the fact that some people take time to learn, ask, research and study their true origins. Am so much in love with the Luo I remember in school that is in the History Class when they used to ask us to describe the LUO MIGRATION Right after knowing this am truly going to save up money and go to Ethiopia and learn more about the LUO am sure the roots are still traceable there.

@@erinahtl yeah, that would be a good start. I believe the Luo in Ethiopia are called Anuak. I love how the Luo are spread all over. I’m a Luo from Kenya :-). We have them in Tanzania as well

I guess because of the migrations they scattered to various placs

Yes brother am luo from Ethiopia

Ethopian luo, greeting from a Kenyan luo 😂😂😂,

Make sure you write these in a book both in local language or get it translated in African language. There has been a lot of deception to distort religion and people are searching for the truth.

This is why we changed our cultural practices: Jeremiah 17:4 And thou, even thyself, shalt discontinue from thine heritage that I gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thine enemies in the land which thou knowest not: for ye have kindled a fire in mine anger, which shall burn for eve - The verse is clear real Jews were prophesied to forget who they are, their customs, culture and identity Today we believe we are Hamitic speakers yet we are Nilo-semitic speakers

But he fluently speaks MANY MANY MANY African Languages! What he noticed in the Bible, is that depending on the African Language, the stories in the bible coincided with the names in the story! African names have meaning in certain African Tribes. In English the names are meaningless but in the correct African Trible the name matches the meaning of the name in that Tribes language! He was able to link directly which African tribe wrote which story based on the name matching the meaning of the story!

@@alfredmungujakisa7720 You're reaching, Igbos are Niger-Congo, we don't even carry the same paternal ancestry.

Where people migrate they all don't follow the same route, also know that migration and settlement and multiplication goes together so all the Luos can't only be from Labongo and Gipir.

Luos are Hebrews not Egyptians, Egypt was the son of Ham while Luos descended from Shem , we are Nilo-semitic not Nilo-hamitic

@@curtisoular the truth will one day be in the open.

Present-day Egyptians arrived about the 11 century into Egypt.

No!! All the Luos in Kenya had it in their oral tradition that we came from Egypt

Wooow

So he narrated it right He knows his origin

We hear and understand everything that is spoken by the Ethiopian Luo (anywasks). Their ways of life, dances, swags, pride, everything, the same. Very interesting. Even the name Ethiopia is derived from A(/E/I)tio (I/yo/we work) pi(for) Anu (God). Some very interesting historical facts.

Wait dear You mean even Tanzania has the Luo😳 It's my first time to hear this Am off to read more

@@erinahtl yes even ethiopia, congo 😂

Luos are also in Chad...they're known as Maban

@@maureenogaye7323 Very interesting, thank you.

@@maureenogaye7323 even Nigeria and senagal. I once got someone with the info of how they migrated west but lost his contacts.

Good to see a professor here. In a different video much related to this, someone commented that the name Pharaoh came from the word 'Rao' which is the luo term for buffalos that roamed in the nile up in Egypt and was given to a kind who was dark and huge like the buffallo. In addition that it was only after the migration started and them getting lost in the desert, that many settled in Sudan naming Khartoum from the word 'Kar tuom' which means to fetch as it was where they could fetch water. Much as all this is heresay, it is not worth considering that Moses was adopted into the Pharaoh's house and no one suspected he was a jew until he killed the egyptian (according to the Bible) which assumes that he physically must have appeared no different from the egyptians. In the same manner, Jesus was hidden in Egypt after his birth during the killings of the first borns (according to the Bible once again) and for some reason they simply couldnt find him. Again, all of it might b assumption, but coupled with such evidence and the fact that Ethiopian Jews are officially recognized as Jews even by the current state of Israel, I'd really like to know what ur take is from a learned perspective and if possible also just as a personal opinion. . Personally I agree with the history we were taught that Luo's originated from Bahr el Ghazel in Sudan, but evidence has just made me wish to dig deeper and id like to get a secon opinion from an academic giant such as yourself.

The day people learn the extent of the lies fed to us by bazungu, you'll be amazed.a

​@@vee3687I have another one, Luos have no "shh " sound in theor whole language. The bible describes the tribe of Ephraim who could not pronounce the "shh" sound but they pronounced it as "sss". Also luos exclaim "Ei Yawa" to show that they are surprised. By YAH's grace we know that his true name of the heavenly Father is YAHUAH or YAHAWAH. So typicaly, Luos say "ei YAHUAH ( Ya-u or w-a). I would like to here your perspective as I am trying to gather as much evidence as I can on the people of Luo.

@@Yahsaxe I have never heard of this perspective but its worth considering. They say our history is hidden in aour language, because that is not so easily modified as written history. But i will definitely look further. In addition, Israel is still looking for the ten lost tribes and just as a personal opinion, I believe they'd be surprised to find that it is nothing close to what they expect. Reminds me of the Bible saying that Esau was of red skin and hairy body, as a personal opinion again... i dont think it would have been worth mentioning if a majority of his clan or tribe had a similar appearance.

This gentleman told me I never knew this too

I have been so mesmerised

@@okiriajoshua2267 me too. Learning never stops

Welcome

I was so surprised just know

So that word "Nilo" what is its etomology?

@@valerius72 Just means people who settled around river Nile - people call this river in different local languages e.g. nam kir.

Very few Ethiopian population are light skinned. Look up other tribes such as Mursi, Oromo, Afar you will see that alot of them have darker complexion. Israel had 12 tribes remember that, I'm sure they were not all the same skin color. I know a lot of Luos from Siaya Kenya that have very fair complexion.

​@ladysafari01 the luo from suya are Basuba basuba are bantu who came from uganda and joined luos in kisumu and totally lost their identity 😂😂

King Solomon saw people whom the sun scorched their skin and they became dark skinned people.See the book of Solomon -Song of songs

True ethiopians are dark skin and being discriminated or eliminated by the brown skinned ones. Also the original Jews were not europeans so Jesus was not white as the EU people deceived us. Luo did not come from Solomon that man is just talking things from his own ambition. Lwo were there before solomon.

In revelation, Jesus/God describes his skin as very dark, burnt in a furnace. Solomon and his lover describe their skins being very dark, like midnight.

Thank you

@Dee Owako Yeah I've always said this Luos are original Egyptian and Langos including Lngo of Uganda and Masaai are Kushites like Somalia.
