Prunus africana (agbalumo, udara) .. very good fruit.. the back of the tree can be used In curing prostate cancer..

oz4real83:
this is the racism that goes with white. Even though this fruit is found in Africa, they gave it their English version of name instead of looking for one local African language name to give to it. If this fruit was in Italy, France, Spain or any other European country, they would have called it in the languages of those European countries just like Spaghetti, macaroni, mayonnaise and many others.

When there are different local names for it: Igbos,itsekiris,urhobos,nupes e.t.c all have different names they call it.
To stop confusion and make things easy for them,they gave it their own name.

Also, nothing stops you from giving the White peoples' stuff your own local name too.


And this doesn't relate to racism please.The whites are already taunting us for always playing victims and throwing the R-word anyhow.

Because we allow them to mess with us. Until we get our acts together and do away with their system.

I think strawberry, icecream and hot dog should have an Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba equivalent name. Let's stop using their English names.
