Cool! I've met but one Igbo my entire life. Was a nice fellow.

Welcome to nairaland

Thanks! I appreciate the welcome.

Well, Djibouti is quite a small country so perhaps not many have heard of it. It's populated by a Somali majority and an Afar minority. The national anthem is sung in both languages. I speak Somali, yes. Also understand Afar moderately.

I don't identify with a particular religion, not that I would consider myself atheist at all!
I'm trying to find the truth. I'm highly interested in finding out about the old religions my ancestors practiced...have a lot of questions about that lol

Now here, we have Abacha, popularly know as African salad
Abacha is a very popular delicacy that has grown out of the borders of any tribe.

It is made from shredded Cassava and can come in different sizes.
In my maternal side, Eziagu, it is taken that Abacha should never be used as a main meal, but as a desert.
If you visit, the people of Eziagu, they'll serve you Abacha just to welcome you whilst preparing the main food.

It can also be prepared in soooo many ways.
It is advised to serve with kpomo, fried fish and Ugba.

A bottle of Coca Cola would also do you very good with it

It looks really delicious. Although I had to look up Cassava...never seen that plant ever before. Maybe it doesn't grow in our neck of the woods.

EnlightenedSoul:

Hot, cold but winter starts early in April till september, its a mountainous place, which means we have snow too often than most of Southern African countries. We rely on South Africa for almost everything though. Check its geographic wiki pedia

HumbledbYGrace: How do I prepare those? Fried plantain is inviting gosh.

Here is the recipe http://latinfood.about.com/od/saladsdressings/r/fried-ripe-plantains.htm

HumbledbYGrace: looks delicious, but not with fish. Why do Nigerians like fish so much?

Not with fish?
If i go to buy abacha, i'll ask for fish first


Nigerians? naaah, i think we like meat more

To me, fish and meat are the same thing. It is an animal that one eats, though typically speaking when one refers to meat, they are talking about flesh of a mammal (e.g. a chicken, a cow, a goat).

The first Nigerian I was close to said ya'll likes fish.

HumbledbYGrace: The first Nigerian I was close to said ya'll likes fish.

Lol, he's definitely very mistaken.

I can assure you, meat sells here like water
