I’m not Afrocentric, but first kings of the old Kingdom were clearly more SSA

Yes, it’s a coherent theory that fits known migration patterns, linguistic links, and anthropology.
The donkey domestication part is actually a clever angle — mobility tech changes like that do explain sudden expansions in prehistory.
The only thing missing is more direct archaeological evidence tying early Horn cultures to Naqada/Badarian sites.

They found 6,000 year old obsidian in predynastic eygptian settlements that was traced back to mines in the afar region

The SSA–West Eurasian mix of early Upper Egyptians was probably very close to what we see in modern Horn of Africa populations:

• ~50–70% Sub-Saharan African ancestry
• The rest ancient Levant/Egypt-related West Eurasian ancestry

there are already adna samples in circulation from old kingdom egypt and they were quadroons. 50%-70% ssa kulaha

Those quadroon samples are not upper eygptians but lower eygptians who trace a huge chunk of thier ancestry back to berber/eef mixed farmers who arrived in Morocco around 5000 b.c and then arrived in eygpt several centuries after that.

We clearly see them depicted as very distinct from upper eygptians in wooden models from the old Kingdom.

Not from upper Egypt walal. The founders of the old kingdom originated from upper Egypt.
