    Luo peoples are not just one ethnic group, they're a group of closely related languages that speak similar dialects. They're also western Nilotic so it should be no surprise that they are originally from Sudan, Nilotic people are the backbone of the Nile Valley cultures

I have many friends and colleagues in Uganda, Nigeria and Angola. The difficult is that airline tickets from Brazil to the African Continent are extremely expensive...But I am getting organized here and one day I will visit the Land of my Ancestors. Ubuntu. 🤝🏿

    I'm very overwhelmed and disappointed to read Wikipedia defining Tutsi ethnic group as a Bantou ethnic group instead Nilotic ethnic group.
    Besides, in a this UA-cam documentary they localized or identified
    "Luo-Nilotic ethnic group" in great lakes region or countries; South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, Ethiopia, DRCongo, but not in Rwanda...
    They might be mistaken, if so it's time for them to correct it.
    Otherwise, they are falsifying the truth and the history of Africa.
    However, if my notice is false I wish I be fixed by the historians, sociologists and anthropologists who taught me the African ethnic groups mostly the great lakes' region and the DRCongo peoples.
