The Efiks and Ibibios call it Afang and regarded more as a forest plant and did bump into them in many forests in Anambra.

The potential for this crop is enormous and from my research, Okazi leaves when sliced and dried can last for years still retaining its nutrients. The sliced dried ones l travelled with to Kenya in 2013 is still in good condition as it also serves me as an anti-malaria solution as all l have to do is boil a small quantity of the leaves then squeeze a lemon into it. The efficacy is so high. Tea bags can be made from it.

I laughed when l saw it online being sold on Amazon!

I do not know if the cultivation is being domesticated. You really need to go in search of its seedlings in the rural areas. I know Cameroon do export it to Nigeria, Europe and North America.
