The majority of the other officers were born in the USA, so we understand the desire to want to find relatives born in Africa. We are DNA Tested African Descendants in the Diaspora just like you.

There was NO direct method to test African ethnic groups and place the testers in contact with their Diaspora family so she created one. It is the FIRST of its kind since 2011. The rest is history.

On certain websites, we manage many Africa born DNA kits. We have recently started managing a few African American DNA Kits in hopes of helping them find their Africa born family members.

If the Africa born DNA kits are still a part of our project, we may provide the info that we have for them if we are authorized to do so. If the tester declines for any reason, we will not. It is completely their choice regarding who they interact with and when.

⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

Every DNA tester has a right to determine who they wish to interact with. They have a right to determine what they share with you. Intrusive people have caused some to withdraw from any interaction.

⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

Some VERY intrusive and disrespectful people have resorted to trying to seek them out on social media and other platforms instead of following our rules and the steps that the testers agreed on. Some have posted private messages, images and info on social media about the match that they NEVER an authorized to be shared.

As a result, some have decided to NOT interact with anyone anymore. Some have authorized us to convey their African ethnic group and NOTHING more.

Facilitated by Chief, Dr Naja Njoku-Levoe, the DNA Tested Igbo Descendants family meeting with His Majesty Dr. Eze Chukwuemeka Eri, the King of ERI Kingdom and two of his sons was an amazing experience. Chief Ugezu J. Ugezu met several of his DNA cousins. To find out more about Autosomal DNA Testing and how to search for Africa born relatives, see the info and videos below.

We are sharing the tools we used to find family after DNA testing. See the link above

Did you know that our Mitochondrial DNA is less than 2% of our ancestral DNA? That’s the DNA from one line passed down from mother to child.

Did you know that our Y DNA is less than 2% of the male ancestral DNA? That’s the DNA from one line passed down from father to son.

Are you aware of Autosomal DNA that accounts for the rest of your testable ancestral DNA? It is passed down to you from both patents after being shuffled around. Multiple lines of ancestors contributed to us having this DNA. We can find family with it as well.

It’s not just one line (maternal ) and one line ( paternal ) .. We are not just one ethnic group . Take a look at the top row of ancestors . Lets say the Black square at the top is Yoruba, the white square is a Irish ancestor , the red is Fulani , the yellow is Igbo , the blue is Asian, the purple is Hausa , the green is Ewe , and the orange is Cherokee . Look at how much they blended before they all got to you and your siblings on the bottom row .

You see , 50 % of your DNA comes from your mom and 50% comes from your dad . The Ydna from your dad is less than 2% and the mtdna from your mom is less than 2%. Testing The autosomal DNA is needed to find family because it tests your DNA coming down to you from generations of all of your ancestors .

If you only count the maternal line , look at how many mini black squares are in the bottom row . Think of that is being your direct maternal line . Each generation has a small amount of the black squares . It’s important but it is not all of your ancestry .

If you only count the paternal line , look at how many mini orange squares in the bottom row . Think of that as your direct paternal line . Each generation has a small amount of the black squares . It’s important but it is not all of your ancestry . Females don’t receive this at all.

Please don’t let anyone tell you that you are only one or two ethnic groups . Find your family ! As many as possible . Don’t stop testing and researching!

How to find your AFRICAN ethnic group percentages https://youtu.be/6tQ6-nThICU?si=0kY3ZFiNEnLJqGte

WWW.DNATestedAfricans.org

We show you how to use your Autosomal DNA test results to search for Africa born DNA relatives. We provide you with templates and useful tools to assist you with connecting with them. We also conduct ancestral naming ceremonies.

There are 3 types of DNA that can be tested. Your Mitochondrial ( mother’s line), the male Y Chromosome ( father’s line ) and Autosomal.

This image shows just some of the DNA that is passed down to you from your ancestors.

The people on the bottom row of this image is you and your siblings. We hail from multiple ethnic groups.

⭐️ Your Autosomal DNA accounts for about 96 - 98% of your ancestry

⭐️ Your Mitochondrial DNA accounts for about less than 2 % of your direct maternal line. This means one direct ancestor on your mothers line from each generation passed this down to you

⭐️ The Male YDNA accounts for about less than 2 % of the male direct paternal line. This means one direct ancestor on your father’s line from each generation passed this down to the males

Men will learn more about themselves if they test all 3.

Women will learn more about themselves is they test their Mitochondrial DNA and their Autosomal DNA. Women do not have YDNA, however, the relatives of their father is also theirs.

1. The Autosomal DNA test is used to help you find biological relatives and potentially Africa born biological relatives. It also provides percentages of your ancestry.

2. The Autosomal DNA tests to consider are AncestryDNA.com or 23andMe.com . These tests have yielded more info about your ancestry and more relatives than other autosomal testing companies.

3. Purchase the kit for about $99. Sometimes they are on sale for $79 or $59. It will be mailed to you. When you receive it in the mail, you can contact us in this telegram group and we will walk you through activating it and providing your dna sample. No blood is required, just saliva or cheek swab.

If you took the autosomal DNA test with any of the companies above, they provide you with the following;

✅ Your Ancestry Percentages

✅ A List of Your DNA Relatives

✅ A FREE method to message them
