As disbelief, shock greet new African findings

Actually, there's so much out there. But the problem is that many are lukewarm to the study of history. It's been suppressed for obvious reasons... politics, economics, ethnicity etc. In fact, its suppression has created ignorance of our bonded unity. In its absence is suspicion and ethnic hate. 

The problem you are having is two fold... it's very fresh and new. So, you are shocked. It ruptures all you knew already. But knowledge is constantly reviewed. Remember when they said the earth was flat. The church even killed Galileo who said it was round.

The next fear is that it will torpedo the status quo. The information will surely change the way Igbo or black history is rendered and perceived. Those that claimed origin of this or that will surely be removed from that position. So, they will resist it. But it's natural. It makes the research more rigorous, more tasking. It will involve more studies and involvement of many towards finding new frontiers for black and African studies. 

I tell you, my brother, the secrets to unravel are huge and astounding that they sound esoteric. I pray God to give me the strength to piece these things I can together. It so much and time is so short. But we have to start. From disbelief to conviction and then acceptance. It's its time.
