Niger delta and Igbo are two different things...u go school so?


Igbo is an ethnic group...


Niger delta is a political creation having Igbo states also in it..



What's your educational qualification?

and he is still making same mistake?

are you okay?


I have always argued here all time that half education is highly dangerous to the society....and killing the country called Nigeria deeply

what do u mean by Niger delta men?

if you want to compare igbos as ethnic group then use another ethnic group to do so...that's how sound logic looks like..

Niger delta is a political creation of 9 states comprising of both igbos, ijaws, efiks, Ibibios etc many ethnicities saddled with the responsiblity of overseeing the affairs of these states.


pls adopt sound logic and your question will be answered soundly.

finally better to say that you noticed maybe igbo and your own ethnic group which I don't know....wears similar attire than using a political creation of 2000 to quantify igbos (ndigbo).

but the thing is men from all Niger Delta groups wear wrappers so it’s not the worst thing in the world to lump them in as one conglomerate mass

but for the sake of you I’ll rephrase as follows: is it okay for Ijaw, Ibibio, Urhobo, Itsekiri and Igbo men (and in fact any other ethnic group in Nigeria where the men tie wrappers) to wear a plain black or white half-shimi underneath?

by half-shimi....u mean what?

or you mean wrapper tied around the waist because black up and white down is a bad combination unless suit..

Re: Niger Delta/igbo Men And Wrapper Underwear by ewa26(op): 4:36pm On Aug 09, 2020
you wear it as underwear underneath the wrapper
Re: Niger Delta/igbo Men And Wrapper Underwear by Nobody: 4:38pm On Aug 09, 2020

if at that Igbos is more of wrapper tied round the waist..
I don't know for others....the undrwear having a knot makes it non feasible

not okay by me

not sure you know the meaning of underwear. This is something designed to be worn underneath the wrapper, not as outwear or as a substitute for the wrapper

if at that what u shown me isn't an underwear but blouse.


in that case, why should a man wear an underwear...it left left for women so ka fa si ebe ahu na ekulu ume ( so that they can be taking breeze from there)

it’s underwear not a blouse. it hangs from the waist
Re: Niger Delta/igbo Men And Wrapper Underwear by Probz(m):
If the wrapper’s masculine then so’s the non-bifurcated underwear worn underneath it. It’s no big deal so long as you know how to tie a wrapper properly.
