Ayam sorry but anytime i dey hear dis so called yam festival dey make me to laugh. But my question is, how is yam part of ibo culture?, did ibos discover yam?, is there no ibo word for yam?, why not use your indigenous language for the festival rather than English.

new yam fastival is translated, it's called iri hi ohuru, it's a celebration of new yam, in times of old yam is regarded as the king of all crops known to them, because of the way the way it's cultivated in Igbo land,

I hope they invited their brother-community, ANAKU

You're a yellowba muzlem... We don't expect you to understand the revered new yam festival...... I'm sure you have the isese festival you and your Fulani lords are disputing over to worry about

New yam is an English word and it’s celebrated all over. It is not indigenous to igbos

Please what’s the Igbo name of the festival

Look at Eyo for example, Eyo is indigenous to Yorubas alone

KwuoteYourFada:

Yam is an English word

Igbos look ugly?. Says someone all his rich tribal men take turns dying to have a bride from the ugly men's daughters?. just to be part of the beautiful tribe to secure and save their children from looking like African apes. Beauty and your ronu tribe are really opposite and can never match.

All my years in Lagos. I've never found any
Yoruba lady really attractive. I wonder how their men who've met beautiful women outside their enclave cope with them.


Very anyhow and shapeless ugly dark creatures


All my life Never believed a Yoruba person will ever want to use ugly to describe any group of people in Africa as a whole or join any banter or gossip that will describe people as ugly.internet self

I did my Nysc in ayemelum , such a lovely place

isese is a yoruba word and the culture peculiar to the yoruba people, hence the word "isese". Is yam peculiar to the ibos?

Useless Isese that Fulanis ordered you fools never to bring to Kwara and it was obeyed. Fools

They're naturally ugly.

Onistha remains the dirty capital of Africa

First, I must say that it's an age long tradition.

Second, the Igbos should not see themselves with the eyes of the Hausas and Yorubas. So, the Igbos are acephalous and are not rules by kings.

Last, the Igbos can should discontinue the caste system.
