Nri Priest, it's over. I told the both of you the same thing. It never happened. Please let's keep the focus on the topic. Ijawgirl, I've noticed you titled this thread "Eastern Ijaw". Is there any difference between the attire of Eastern and Western Ijaw (Which I suppose live in Edo, and Ondo)? |

Walahi, this one na War of Colours. Even if na peacock |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Nobody: 5:39am On Nov 21, 2011 |
Obiagu1: Oh shut up. Go and look at the vomit feathers/attires your traditional leaders wore during the Ofala ceremony. |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Obiagu1(m): 5:46am On Nov 21, 2011 |
Ileke-IdI: Maybe post the pictures side by side. Men should know the limit, maybe you should advise your husband to wear red, yellow, white, blue, purple all at the same time. |

Obiagu1: Ijaw www.nairaland.com/attachments/574943_222920_24434849640_583914640_388837_2412_n_jpg81906ddf77f78879de5f6fa01170e6ec Igbo Ofala www.nairaland.com/attachments/564927_chief_iwenofu_jpg9b16bcfa16b95f197dbb9dbdefcb7582 Yea, I think we know who can practice moderation here. |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Obiagu1(m): 5:59am On Nov 21, 2011 |
See how moronic you are. You're showing picture of a man with a ceremonial hat with feathers, can't you see his dress and the colour combination and even the men in the background? Note: Not everyone can put on that hat, probably just him for such occasion. Now compare it with the colours of the dresses and hats on the thread. Everyone dresses like a peacock. |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Nobody: 6:03am On Nov 21, 2011 |
Obiagu1: With your beady lil eyes, you saw everyone wearing feathers in this thread? What color combination? If not for the Yoruba agbadas they have on, it'd have been a disaster with y'all's red/black dresses worn by men with elephant/tiger/cat/etc embroilment on it. Living in a glass house is your case. This below, is a beautiful attire and fab color combination. See as the woman dey gloaw sef www.nairaland.com/attachments/575515_550264_76040_451683743013_668923013_5636576_3337739_n_jpg345cd5444e37506a7bef64211fd8eebb_jpg1dac48c133e2f2aca16400b93b6389c7 |

So WHICH MEN DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH HERE? Still living in a glass house? |

Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Nobody: 6:19am On Nov 21, 2011 |
I got a serious question, will delete this post later. Obiagu, this is an Igbo wedding of both igbo couples. are Igbo men now dressing like Yoruba men? |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Obiagu1(m): 6:23am On Nov 21, 2011 |
A lot of Igbos dress like Yoruba, a lot, especially those in Lagos. It's very common in traditional weddings too. Ileke-IdI: |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Nobody: 6:28am On Nov 21, 2011 |
Obiagu1: This was not in Lagos. This was in America. in Lagos, i understand the need to "fit in". however, the yorubas in Igboland still dress like Yorubas. |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Obiagu1(m): 6:33am On Nov 21, 2011 |
Ileke-IdI: It's not a matter of fitting in, that's not the case. In the East proper, Igbos wear both Hausa and Yoruba dresses, whatever they deem fashionable. No one cares. As for the picture you posted, there's nothing specifically Yoruba in it. It's common in the East too so I won't say it's Yoruba. I've seen traditional weddings that you'll think the couple are Yorubas, but they are not; both dressed in complete Yoruba attires including the hat. When we were small while in the East, my dad used to sew Hausa dresses for us. It's common. |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Nobody: 6:37am On Nov 21, 2011 |
Obiagu1: That attire is pure Yoruba. Plz do not change history. That attire is a modern modification of our ancestor's clothing; pant and a long shirt on top. Before Igbo's movement to Yorubaland, that attire was only worn in the Southwest. That is what is worn below the agbaba, most times. Just because it's now being worn by Igbos, does not mean it's not Yoruba traditional attire. Even Yoruba agbadas (which is cut different from that of the Hausas) are now being worn in the SE. 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Obiagu1(m): 6:46am On Nov 21, 2011 |
Ileke-IdI: Well you talk with certainty that it's 100% Yoruba. However, that guy's dress is not different from what we wear in burial ceremonies, which is absolutely traditional. The only difference is the material and colour. I've worn it a number of times including the half-sleeve types. The ladies's dress is common I'm not in a position to tell how it came about. Since you've never been to the East, I wonder how you know what we wear. |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Nobody: 6:53am On Nov 21, 2011 |
Obiagu1: I'm not tlking about the ladies dress. I'm sure the gele was a Yoruba influence tho. Look at the picture of your traditional ceremony of then to now. And look through Yoruba's cultural attires. You'll understand that that's a modern Yoruba traditional cloth. Infulences travel far and wild. |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Obiagu1(m): 6:56am On Nov 21, 2011 |
Ileke-IdI: Well I don't know. I'm not the best person to know The only thing I know is that Igbos wear any dress they deem fashionable be it Yoruba, Hausa, Efik, Oyibo . . . |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Nobody: 6:59am On Nov 21, 2011 |
Obiagu1:Ok Now I feel bad for spoilin Ijaw's thread. |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by ChinenyeN(m): 7:36am On Nov 21, 2011 |
Ileke-IdI: I was wondering who would be the first to say something like this. |
Re: Traditional Eastern Ijaw Attire In Pictures by Nobody: 7:42am On Nov 21, 2011 |
ChinenyeN: V, is there sth you need to get out of your system? |
