Some Africans have inferiority complex and attribute everything to Europe.. smh.

Even if this post is made in jest, some don't know Africans wore wool caps for thousands of years and civilization of Africans didn't start at colonialism smh.

That hat Igbo wear is over two thousand years old and used to be worn to show initiation into certain secret societies. People should learn history before its hone forever and we start attributing even African languages to Europeans.





Word will for thousands of years?

Where did the wool come from?

Yep
I don't understand all these questions
You won't understand
You claim that Ibos have been trading wool with South Africa since time immemorial.
We know that Europeans brought wool sheep to South Africa in the late 18th century . ie Merino wool sheep
So your claim is not only a lie but ridiculous
There is no history of Ibos trading with South Africa ,the fact that you can spout such crap projects you as brainless and shameless

I said the wool was gotten from south Africa don't you know that wool is largely produced in south Africa? You asked where they got the wool from
Wool was not produced in South Africa before Europeans arrived and brought with them MERINO SHEEP in the late 18th century
You lie without sense like a 6 year old

They were originally made from locally sourced material. Similar to how 200 years ago most Palm oil that was used in Nigeria cane from Nigeria. Today we use Malaysian palm oil as a replacement.

Same way native rice is now substituted for foreign rice.

Same way we will wear leather from Europe instead of using leather from Kano.

Over time we change things. Certain concepts remain but the actual items used have been substituted due to globalization.

For example, most Igbo used to wear Akwete cloth as their native wear. These came from The Ancient Arochukwu Confederacy, but today Igbo native is made from imported cloths.

ALL the major tribes in Nigeria.......Fact!!!

We northerners , our culture has a lot of Arabic influence.....in our dressings ,greetings etc. Because of Islam.

In SS, look at the names, and mode of dressings, it is heavily influenced by the Catholic Europeans. See how they put cufflings, Bowler Hats and neck ties on their attires.

In SE, look at their first names , mostly English. Look at their Head warmers, it is meant for Winter/Cold Season which has no relation to the South Eastern Climate at all.....this is very european!

In SW, look at their Aso oke, Aso Ebi, their Abetiaja cap[I hope I am correct with the spelling,I am not Yoruba lol]. EVEN in faraway Brazil and Cuba, they STILL wear Yoruba attires for occasions.

I have soooo much respect for Yoruba Culture and its unique Authenticity.......It is not adulterated or watered down like the others
even yoruba dressing sef were influenced by northerner

How a people can lie with such ease is astounding

What exactly was Ar o confederacy?

It was the arrangement in Arochukwu after it was captured by the Akamkpa who established a dynasty there which still reign to this day by the way. It was an Akamkpa/Ibom arrangement which conquered Aro and used that platform to sell Iboes from surrounding areas as slave through Calabar for centuries
The Iboes did not wear Akwete as their Native cloth. THEY WENT AROUND NAKED
Akwete came about after civilizing contact with the Ijebus who sold fabrics to Ijaws in the 19th century. IT WAS CALLED ASO OLONA

It was very expensive to produce and not "native cloth" it was ceremonial for the wealthy. The rest of the population walked about stark naked.

Igbo elders need to go and beg Reno Omo-Kirikiri. If we dey fight, no be say make our opponents die nah.

This old fallacy of the love relationship between Igbo women and Gorillas, I hope Reno Omo-Kirikiri will not prove it right.

Igbos are our brothers, the fact that we disagree politically does not mean we should humiliate them like sub humans

Long before the Europeans and what is today known as the western civilization came to West Africa, the Ekoi (Ejagham) people in present-day Nigeria had developed a unique form of ideographic writing called Nsibidi.

Author P.A Talbot who lived during the colonial times described it as “a kind of primitive secret writing” which was communicated on “cut or painted on split palm stems”.

As shared on X by popular influencer and adviser to former president of Nigeria, GEJ.
Dear @sleyany,

Thank you for your feedback. You call me over sabi? Okay, let me over sabi you some history. Do you see this your 'traditional cap' on your head? Do you know the origin? When British and Irish Christian missionaries came to a part of Nigeria, they realised that they had no need for their winter caps, known as head warmers or beanies, because of the humid heat of the area. So they threw them away. And the local butt naked natives picked them up and began wearing them. And now, it has become their 'traditional' cap. In the blistering heat. And the offspring of such a people is calling me 'over sabi'. Who is the real over sabi? Neither me or my ancestors would wear someone's reject and call it traditional dress. If I show you photos of some of your ancestors, you will delete all your social media posts and never show your face again in public.

Thanks again, and may God bless you.
