OWERRI
I love our soup "Ofe Owerri" with pounded yam.
I love our bongo music.
I love our beautiful woman and good looking men.
I love how we celebrate the arrival of a new born baby.
I love our traditional marriage ceremony, it is always joyful to apart take in it.
I love how we put "Nda" before the name who ever that is older as a sign of respect including our parents. This is specifically to NEKEDE people. And they say Igbos don't have respect.

Me too. And surprisingly that dance is difficult to perform bt really look simple and unique when done by the Ohafia people.
Proudly Igbo

The omoluwabi ethos. That is why the igbos cannot fully understand the Yoruba tribe. The omoluwabi ethos is embedded into every Yoruba person born from a good home. Prevents you from doing a lot of things. It's funny you can't really list all what it entails, as you just know.

Ogo ndi ikom!
I love the ekpe dance and ito odu.
I love the culture of showing honor to great men when they die by bringing in their coffin through the roof of their house instead of passing it through the door.
Spartans got nothing on my ancestors.....while other African men were busy twerking...
Ohafia men were making war songs and sung wars with the drums they beat....drums weren't the only things that got beaten....their enemies hear am.

marrying many wives
having more children than they can feed
believing in witchcraft and juju, god and religion without research
eating foods banned by world health organization
having unplanned children and then sending them to begging, street hawking and to other countries
allowing uneducated mediocre into office and then blaming them for the problems
bowing down for elderly persons just because they arrived earth before you
worshipping yeye pastors and chiefs who are remnants of primitive and uncivilized societies

the list goes on....what's not to love about 170 million people many of whom have the mental intelligence of monkeys?

Same trash y'all usually write here on Nairaland.
We've so many threads highlighting the negatives of Nigeria and Nigerians.. Go and express your damned opinion there.
For once, we're to say something positive about this country and her culture; if you've got none to say, kindly stay away from the thread! Is it too much to relax and say something positive?
Peace!

@Op.. I'm Yoruba, and I love the respect, and wedding traditions the most about my culture.

I totally agree with you...it has and still helping a lot of Igbo's...
If only we all can take away our bigotted reasonings and inculcate the good sides of our culture...it will go a long way.

There are some of us that still like one or two things from our different cultural heritage that we are not ready to give away to civilization... I will like to know the positive aspect of your culture that you think can benefit the society at large if it is to accepted by all.

NB: please this is not about supremacy or ego, no one should be abused for his/her views

Who no go like their culture? It should have gone this way " what other culture outside yours do you think can benefit the society at large". For me sha "Swange and the Ohafia dance step are special". Food: (Edikainkon and Oha) The Fattening Room as practiced then is marvelous.

Yes. Thats how my grandfather was buried. His coffin was brought in from the roof instead of the door.
Made a lil mistake in my earlier post.... it is "ite Odo" (pot of odo) and not ite odu.
