Already explained on this page. Reading really is an issue for you huh?

Maybe, so explain it in simpler English.

Couldnt get simpler than how it  was previously posted. You're not a child.

And could you quote this explanation then?

ezeagu:

No, it's on this page. Scroll up. Dont be lazy.

I can't see anything that's an explanation for why Jeans is not part of Nigerian culture, and the grand bou bou is.

Using blindness as an excuse for your incapability to grasp simple logic? Now that's pathetic.

love this

Ileke idi and cohorts you win. Igbos "roamed the forests unclad until yorubas came to their rescue". However, igbos are indisputably better looking.
One point for each ethnic group. Happy now?

So, lets list some things in yoruba culture which were influenced by igbo or other tribes.

Cant really think of anything but maybe someone else can.

I heard masquerades were influenced by nupe but i seriously doubt that. I'd say they're more of ugbo, going by the moremi story.


I dont know if ogbono was adopted from igbo cuisine. Yorubas call it apon.

You damn right ogbono was and you know it. So was egusi! Seems like your speaking too soon my dear. And if you dont think nupe influenced yoruba go read a book on it. Although I am pretty sure you know they influenced you people.

^Islam in yorubaland was mainly introduced by nupe slaves, according to some sources.

Nupes were also found in yoruba armies and courts- they were part of the middlemen who supplied the oyo calvaries with horses from libya or hausaland.

So, nobody is saying they had no influence at all. Same way yoruba had influence on them and some northern yorubas were absorbed by them.

I dont think egusi is from igbo but garri could be from central or south america.

Notice how you always saying "think" but in actuality you "know" but are too ashamed to admit it. Egusi is purely Igbo in all sense go ask mama na!

Keep decieving yourself. Most popular soups in Nigeria originated from Igboland.

You must be high on crack for vomiting that rubbish.
So because una no get better soup, our own go turn to another person own?
Better go to igbobi and get a refill, you might lose it completely.

You people need to shut up if u are ignorant

Egusi is a yoruba food.

Egusi apparently a yoruba word was adopted by the igbos and hausa

the name egusi is a yoruba word. What do igbos know of egusi before the amagamation of Nigeria

before colonisation, there was nothing like egusi in IGBOLAND.

Really you people need to stop acting like retards.

The original name of egusi is agushi

which the yorubas changed to egusi today and the igbos and even hausas adopted
