Is it possible that from the Tribal prospective, you are from a tribe that is present in both Ghana and Nigeria with a greater number in Nigeria. So when they identified the DNA marker for that tribe the assume your people come from Nigerian because that tribe has a bigger presence in Nigeria. Besides Ghana, Cote D'Ivoire, Benin, Togo, and Nigeria all have the same tribes that stretch across the whole region. This is why these colonizer's boarders should mean nothing to liberated Africans.

This is science, not simply entertainment. Also, Africans were not just dancing around all the time ...they've traded and traveled across-and beyond-the continent for millennia. And because we are all human, over those hundreds of years, there were occasional intimate connections (not talking about more recent slavery travails) so the Euro (and Asian) bit of your DNA is entirely normal. I've never been to Africa, but my DNA is 35% Nigerian...plus some bits from nearby West African areas...the remainder is Euro: Norway, Wales, Ireland...etc. It's all an interesting historical and human adventure...

My African ancestry is 70 something percent, European is 22%, the rest Native America/Mexico. I was looking at the people coming up, and see some cousins who were coming up as 2nd and 3rd cousins meaning we shared a Great Great Grandparent. I never met my Great Great Grandma on either side. But on my Daddy paternal side, I am not sure who my Great Gma Dad is, but between here and here sister I felt in my heart he was maybe biracial or white based on how they look. Those cousins answered that question. Some of them have 1% African and the rest European. We share a Great Great Grandfather smh. Meanwhile the picture my Grandma had of my alleged Great Great Grandfather was the Stepfather of my Great Grandma and older sister. The things you uncover doing this is crazy.

The difference is the reference panel samples - that is, who and where the respective companies tested. They choose people that (think) they have long established ties to a particular area. (I say "think" because as we've seen from years of testing, there's a lot more Non Paternity Events than previously believed.) Their initial criteria is that all four GRANDPARENTS originate from the same non-colonial geography. In terms of your ancestry, grandparent level isn't very deep... And the SIZE of the reference panels is extremely important as it would be in any data compilation. (If you ask 10 people in Chinatown what their favorite food is you're going to get a totally different answer from 10 people in an Italian neighborhood. But ask 10,000 people at random in NYC and you've got a better grasp on what's most popular in that area of the country.) Ancestry's reference panel is abt 17k, 23andMe's is about 11k. The others don't report. Those are the REFERENCE PANEL numbers for the ENTIRE platform. I don't know what they are for individual countries, but I can tell you this: bigger, more profitable companies can afford to sample more places... SO IF AFRICANS WANT MORE ACCURATE PANELS, THEY NEED TO TEST MORE! (And just as a side note, Ghana hasn't been a defined country for all that long...) 🧬Six generations ago you had 64 ancestors. One of those 64 is the equivalent of 1.56% inheritance. So if you can trace all 64 of your Great-Great-Great-Great-Grandparents then you just might find your Italian interloper. 😘

Ancestry is my favorite... Im 95% West African...40 % Nigerian( traces of Cameroon Congo, Mali, Ghana, Senegal/ Benin/ Togo. Born in America ... I also did the African Ancestry and im 100% Equatorial Guinea... Bioko Island on my mothers , mothers, mothers side( i heard thats close to Cameroon)...

Also have a lot of the groups in large quantities even groups that don’t see themselves as the same ethnic group. Also countries share several ethnic groups - like Ghana and Nigeria both having Hausa, Togo and Ghana having Ewe and etc.

Hi Cynthia, As to the European connection, you have to remember that many of those peoples have been coming to the western countries of Africa for hundreds of years. Most traders, raiders did not carry their women with them but often found love in its various forms in the countries visited. Many babies were left behind. By the way from your looks- to me you are Ghanian

Update: I uploaded the raw DNA from AncestryDNA to Genomelink. Their Global Ancestry report showed two spots, in Nigeria and Kenya. My best guesses are Fulani and Rendille, 1% each. I agree that everybody's connected on a deep level.

The tests can be accurate but it may be hard to tell the difference when population intermix a lot in a short span of time because the genetics will become really similar.

As my Great Grandfather used to say to my mother "we are all one big Minestrone soup". 👍 Which turned out true.

Thank you for taking DNA tests. I took the ancestry DNA test and it came back with a mixture of nationalities. I know that as more tests are done results change. I think it’s very interesting that the results were so divided between the two tests.

My Heritage DNA is one of the worst companies for Africans. Their database for Africa is really small and limited. They seem to almost exclusive have DNA samples collected from Nigerians. So, the result is that My heritage can exaggerate the Nigerian results by a great margin, as your test results show. Ancestry DNA is a lot better, especially after the last few updates. After watching a gazillion of Ancestry DNA results videos, I can tell where an individual is from, just by looking at the results. Yours is quite typical of Ghanaians. Ivory Coast/ Ghana and Benin/ Togo are almost always the highest percentages. It actually makes sense as well.

Sister, you are simply Yoruba lady. The Yorubas are in Ghana,Benin, Togo, Sierra Leone. Your DNA is accurate.

Actually, it is quite possible for both to be "correct". For example Oyo empire once extended to some parts of present day Togo and Ghana. While the Ashanti conducted raids into as far as Dahomey. Add the slave raids to the mix. So, it would depend on how you pick your reference points. Modern genetics now admits that all humans alive today descended from about 8 individuals. We are all connected, depended on how far back you are willing to go.

I have taken both African Ancestry and Ancestry tests and on Ancestry it says Nigerian but I know my paternal is from Gabon and my maternal is from Cameroon. Ancestry's database will classify you as Nigerian as opposed to my results showing Cameroon or Gabon ancestry due to the number and area tested.

They do have a large African database, they and LivingDNA and FTDNA are the only companies that ship to Africa and Madagascar. It's just that they do not give a fuck about correcting their results according to the new incoming population reference. So it's better to go with FTDNA and LivingDNA.

Chineke meee, my sister!!!!!!!!!!!! My sister, we welcome you with a warm embrace. Being Nigerian is not that bad LOOOOOOL!!

Remember there were no borders before the Berlin conference, there was free movement of people.

Before the Europeans came to manufacture countries like Nigeria, Ghana, Benin, etc. What you don't realize is that there were kingdoms which spanned those countries, The Yoruba kingdoms spread all along from Nigeria through Benin, through Togo and Ghana. I am a native Nigerian, but my Grandfather who is the same tribe and spoke the same language, came from today's Benin. You will find that it is normal for Yorubas to be in multiple countries, not just Nigeria. Nigeria never existed before the Europeans carved up Africa. Not counting intermarriage and mobility, There is a chance that this is the source of the seeming disparity you are finding.

Let me kind of clear it up. AncestryDNA and MyHeritage, more so MyHeritage is a test more geared and marketed toward white people. Meaning they have more genetic samples,family history from Europe and British isles. Those two companies have different genetic databases. The information is analyzed different. So for profit purposes(and maybe not being exclusive) they market them for everyone but both companies have just a base amount of DNA stock from certain countries. So it's kind of like a half truth in marketing them to everybody. AfricanAncestry is what marketed to us in the West but( they try to tie up u into specific tribes which is wishful thinking) 23andMe is the most accurate and has the biggest database from African and black world.

Oh interesting. I feel like they got my English / Scottish / Irish accurate but it didn't say I had any German which isn't true. My West Asian which hasn't shown up elsewhere was picked up by them which is also good. But I noticed they lump a bunch of African countries under a couple of umbrellas that are less accurate, so for me, I like My Heritage overall for general regions, but not for figuring out any specifics to do with my African side.

Your ancestors were probably of Mende descendent that arrived from the senegambian region in west Africa, made their way through Liberia and Sierra Leone and down towards through Ivory Coast and ended up somewhere in Nigeria and back again in Ghana. The Mende language was the first to split from the Niger Congo A language family, so it makes perfect sense that all west Africans are related somehow, but Ghanaians and Nigerians are more related to eachother then they are to a Senegalese as those countries are closer to eachother.

Hello my Naija sister😀😀😀😀

Hello Cousin, I was born and raised in the US. I had the opportunity to get "FREE" Test as well. I took it many years back. In the beginning it appeared that my DNA concentrated around Benin/Togo, since then it's change from Benin/Togo to Cameroon/Congo with Nigeria coming in second, but as of today it has once again changed from Cameroon/Congo to Nigeria coming in first and Cameroon/Congo as second. So actually it's something left to your discretion to figure out what's what now. I as well have during the past year had the opportunity to connect with many Nigerians, Ghanians and a couple of Cameroon/Congolese, so now I feel a connection to all three places, but particularly love Ghana. So I'll see you when I see you.

@@AshantiQueen it's all about the population samples that they get from various regions and whoever tests are compared to that. You yourself said that nations in Africa especially West and Central Africa are European constructed so anything wrt Lower and Upper Guinea has to understood from that perspective. I did AncestryDNA at first to find biological relatives. I have 77% Sub Saharan African, it was 68% Lower Guinea with Nigeria being 45% and then with my new update, it was 37% Nigeria but my Benin and Togo increased to 11% from 5% and Cameroon, Congo and Western Bantu went up from 17 to 18%. Altogether, my overall Sub Saharan African % stayed the same but it was distributed to 72%(I have 5% altogether in the Upper Guinea region i.e Mali and Senegal) in the Lower Guinea region because they got more sample populations especially from Benin and Togo as well as Ivory Coast and Ghana. Then you're able to upload your raw DNA to MyHeritage from AncestryDNA and I got the same amount of "Nigerian" as you did. Again, it's all broad sub regions that encompasses more than Nigeria the country. I prefer AncestryDNA over MyHeritage but there's answers to how they interpret our results. There's a lot of overlap with DNA in those regions. Culture is the only real thing that is distinguishable.
