AwkaetitiBabe they might have the same colouration but I am telling you what I know.
I don't know the name of this leaf be it English or Yoruba but the one for Zobo is called ìsápá in Yoruba (for clear pronunciation, ìshákpá).
check the previous comments you quoted I mentioned it's use.
yes you are right, some Yoruba call it ewe zobo/ flowa pupa, but it is not the real zobo leaf.

Our major problem started when we abandoned our herbs and root and embrace their own way.


Herbs and roots have their place, like eating yam to increase likelihood of birthing twins. But please in the name of whatever diety you worship don't use 'agbo' to treat serious ailments like HIV and Diabetes. Their claims are unverified and untested and might even cause more physical harm like liver damage or interfere with medicines. I hope the people selling 'ABC Herbal mixture' from their Toyota Corolla are listening.

It's Acalypha wilkesiana. The yorubas call it "ewe eela"
It's used to treat fungal skin infections particularly in infants. the leaves are boiled/brewed in large pots and used to bathe the infected child daily.

Are you keeping malice with those people coming to pluck it in your compound...if no, your best bet is to ask them for the usage. You don't have to post a minor qst that simply asking those plucking it can give answers to.

OP shocked, omg, what have you done to yourself? That's called the leaf of Babel. Legend has it that anywhere the leaf is planted, the leprechauns of Olympus and the gnomes of Scandinavia would come and pluck the leaves. Here's the most interesting part: for every time they pluck, the height of whoever planted it will reduce by 1mm. Check yourself, are you shorter than before? cheesy
