There were never "yoruba slaves"

The name "yoruba" was made in the 19th century by the british because there was no general name for them i.e some factions were called Awori Yoruba(I think the ones in lagos, togo and benin republic), there was ijebu yoruba and so on...

They were called Lucumi...

. If you doubt me just ask google.

simplemach:
Hmmmm, thank God, atleast now when going, i only need to go with my Agege Bread since the akara is dia already.

ChristyG:
you have no point,most of the slaves were oyo,egba who are yoruba people now.the descendants of these slaves(together with some other tribes) are d ones called lucumi.i dont think there are awori yoruba in benin or togo,the yoruba pple there migrated from ile ife.

You are a liar,akara is no culture of urs..that's how u claim jolof and pounded yam re ur culture,whr did u even start growing beans on yoruba land. Mind you akara is called kosai in hausa lang.

Merlissa:


Yes we have akara in Brazil. We also eat garri, okro and garden egg

I 'm not surprised.

They are/have strong 'Ifa' worshippers there, so Akara shouldn't be strange, even Ekuru.
