Ndi Mbu: The First Igbo Ancestors

Ndi Mbu, or First Ancestors, are the most ancient spiritual roots of Ndi Igbo people, beings of great wisdom and strength who walked the earth before and after death entered human experience. Known as Ushi Aka, these dwarf-like ancestors still guide us today through dreams, rituals, and ancestral memory. This teaching explores who they are, how they continue to influence us, and how to honour them as eternal guardians of Igbo consciousness.
