It shows you know nothing. You're completely ignorant.

PS: Can you prove that Yorubas were not using the same technique before your grandmother knew Yorubaland existed?

You can't, can you? Yet you want us to take your grandma's ichafu as a biblical verse.

And what exactly did you prove on this thread? (Apart from flaunting Arab influence)

manny4life:


So your claim is not for instance that you invented agbada, but insisted the styles you invented, styles different from other regions, Igbos are wearing the sam style as yours? Is this your point?

Precisely.

PS: Are Igos being modernly Islamized too?

now your back to your senses , typical yoruba dey don catch you ,story don change.
your talking rubbish , who tell you say fish no dey ijaw land , are you dumb or just ignorant ? come to rivers or bayelsa and educate yourself , and i used the ogonis cus they are the ones that have the massive oil spill and considering their land mass is so small compared to ijaw land that stretches all the way from ondo to rivers , mumu

I agreed with u that u have plenty fish. so, what then is your excuse for the dullness your ppl are known for? Igbo didn't have fish protein in Biafra. they ate only cassava but they still managed to retain their brainpower. lazy ijawman what is ya excuse?  grin grin grin

It's obvious you're bored and need some entertainment. I was shocked to see this silly thread in its 13th page when I logged on.

Those that want to keep this ignorant lonely girl entertained should carry on, I'm out of here.

Just beacuse Yoruba are the least traveled around Nigeria, doesn't mean they invented clothing. Bet you're regretting opening this thread.

Personally, I do not see the styles at all at least from the pics. If you can be more specific how u mean by styles, that will better help. Igbos do not wear the same hat of course, we wear same materials apparently different designs but when u say styles, I like to know how u mean.
Re: Yoruba, Igbo And Acculturation (or Multiculture) by ezeagu(m): 3:45am On Nov 22, 2011
You should have left Igbo out of your title, then you would have saved yourself heartache.

That's alright. That's why we're telling you there's a style because we, the Yorubas, know how our agbadas are different.

He has not answered any question. Just told us a story about his grandmama's Ichafu. As if Yorubas or Ijaws were doing the same back then.

Ileke you've done a great job. Those pictures of elegant Yoruba women reminds me why I am so lucky to be Odua. Yorubas are pacesetters in fashion. We take crude styles and materials and turn them into dazzling exhibits. Others copy and that's ok by us. I can assure you that the next fashion in vogue will also come from the SW. cool cool cool

Well then, I rest my case in the absence of your words,

One last word, tell your man to read up on how Islam was introduced into Africa and other continents, that should help him. Google isn't the answers, personal knowledge, reading and research WILL HELP.

You are right bro, haters are indeed gonna hate.
Re: Yoruba, Igbo And Acculturation (or Multiculture) by tpia5: 3:55am On Nov 22, 2011
i think the main point of the thread is if you're adopting yoruba dressing, then you have to stop hating on yorubas.

that's it in a nutshell.

btw can anyone explain what ofala ceremony is.

when did it start, where is it practiced, etc.

are the people featured in those photos of yoruba descent?

Actually, most of the wedding attires and tailoring and designs on Bella Naija were done by Lanre De Silva and other Yoruba Fashionistas. But cant really say they're Yoruba fashon because she and others are doing it for Nigerians of all tribes. But most of these fashionistas are Yorubas.

For example http://www.bellanaija.com/2011/11/02/wed-magazine-debuts-its-pinkbudget-issue-preps-for-the-wed-expo-in-2012/


Another, Segun Gele, designing new gele styles . . . . women all over the globe have been introduced to his styles.
