Afro Guyanese are heavily of Congo and Ghana stock with some Liberia/Sierra Leone thrown in.  Throw in the Bajan descendants, and then you get the Igbo. 

 

Not sure how many Yorubas came to Guyana, as they were mainly sent to Brazil (Bahia).  During the peak periods of British/Dutch involvement in the slave trade the Yoruba empires were top dogs and so were the ones selling others.  The Yorubas were enslaved mainly in the 19th century.
