The love I have for three leaf yam is unquantifiable...

It is called Esuru in some dialect ,I hate this nonsense yam until my mum made me to enjoy one.

According to a friend of mine from South, he claimed that once you give him Anem then half of his problems are solved..

I can dash you my phone for a portion of this because of it sweetness but it's been years I ate it.

I really miss home .
What do you call it in your dialect ? Do you enjoy eating it too?

This is Esuru nah

Anomo is sweet potato in Yoruba (Oyo)
Kukunduku (Ekiti)

It's like your own Yoruba is different from the regular one.

What I know sweet potatoes are called in Yoruba is odukun.

This is for areas of Nigeria that
habitually lack staple foods... 😕😕😕😕


When yam, sweet and Irish potatoes,
cassava, maize, rice, beans, corn, Guinea corn
millet and other foods are readily
available, why will a normal person results
to this type of tuber that should be
left for wild bush animals and monkeys❓❓😕
