Egusi soup is a dish that originates from the Igbo tribe in Nigeria. It's time we started appreciating each other instead of trying to steal from each other. Does anyone dispute the fact that moi moi comes from the Yoruba tribe? Or that Suya comes from Hausa people?

If you doubt me then please tell me what the name for "melon" is in Yoruba, Hausa, Bini etc.

Thank you.

Notice in the video how the Igbo husband refers to egusi soup as Igbo food and the Yoruba wife does not claim it for her own people.

They think soup is buying one cup of egwusi and 4 cups of grounded pepper..

I don't know where egusi is originated from.
It's not Yoruba.

So, where do you see Yoruba claiming it.?

Lol, does it matter??
I only enjoyed it when mixed with vegetable sprayed with catfish, cowskin, crayfish, and some species of fish

Please tell us (with documentary evidence) the year egusi soup was invented in Igboland. Tell us also (with documentary evidence) the year it was adopted from the Igbos by the Yorubas.

Most of us in this part of the world come from civilizations where we cannot say with certainty what was happening in the villages we come from before 1700, but we come online to drag ownership of things that certainly predate verifiable history. Are you all not clowns like this?

Ask your forefathers if they have documentary evidence of their existence before the white men arrived.


Socrates na u go school pass.


Trash.

Is the egusi supply safe?

I don't know the reason for the thread.

Where does Nigeria get egusi from, and what's the supply chain?

MelesZenawi:

That bothers you because.

There's nothing surprising about that, a peaceful disintegration of this country would not only end these but is a prerequisite for development. Awolowo called Nigeria a mere geographical expression created by the British for their own evil intentions and gain. He also said that Nigeria is a marriage of strange bedfellows therefore there's like a Nigerian just like you have a German or a Spaniard. A peaceful disintegration by each people voting to decide where they want to belong is the way forward.

Culture is a word for the 'way of life' of groups of people, meaning the way they do things. ... Excellence of taste in the fine arts and humanities, also known as high culture. An integrated pattern of human knowledge, belief, and behavior. The outlook, attitudes, values, morals, goals, and customs shared by a society.

What exactly is wrong with you people, especially you igbos. You are just tribalistic and stupid, is it yoruba's fault that people are attaching the dish to their tribe? Isn't it the same way your people claim yoruba people love pepper like you all don't eat pepper as well, wetin be una problem with yoruba people ?

Would you now say Ghanaians stole egusi from igbos too? Because they eat it aswell.

And what does Egusi mean in igbo language?

Eguisi is an Edo soup

Igbos and Yorubas claiming it are just talking out of ignorance

Eguisi is an old delicacy written documented by the Europeans who ate it in Benin and saw the Benins offering to the idols

The egusi plant was brought by the Portuguese from Asia

Apart from Niger deltans and Lagos the Portuguese never came across ibos or Yorubas so how did they get the plant to make
The soup

Lol the popular egusi and pounded yam you eat is Edo food

Benin were d only tribe in Nigeria skilled in wood carvings to be able to pound yam at that time

Black soup is an Edo soup
Ogbolo is edo soup
Same as egusi
Cotton soup which has been extinct now
Groundnut soup is Edo food


Now you wonder why the eastern yourubas who Benin had extensive contact with are the only yorubas who claim pounded yam and egusi as there delicacy.....and not amala and ewedu

I know you're Igbo a tribe that stole so many people culture as theirs

You also invented fish as edo were the only tribes that know what fishing nets are,lol
Ogbono/ogbolo depending on the dialect is definitely Igbo,as the “No/lo” at the end means something slimy in all of igboland
Anambra and some part of Enugu will likely call it ogbono while ndi imo and Abia call it ogbolo

We have enough soups and foods in igboland okra,bitter leaf,ukwa,nkwobi,isi ewu etc,so we do not need to stool anybody’s food
