[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=807895.msg9605877#msg9605877 date=1321929598]PS: Can you prove that Yorubas were not using the same technique before your grandmother knew Yorubaland existed?

You can't, can you? Yet you want us to take your grandma's ichafu as a biblical verse.[/quote]And what exactly did you prove on this thread? (Apart from flaunting Arab influence)

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=807895.msg9605859#msg9605859 date=1321929359]Join the next thread.  
It was put on home page because I asked for it to be put there.  [/quote]About boring plastic head ties and their vague "origins"? No thanks.

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=807895.msg9605851#msg9605851 date=1321929180]Oh puhlzzz, you guys better save more pictures for the other threads that were already opened and will be opened [/quote]No one gave a shit about your other threads, this was put on the front page so it had to be dealt with.

Dealt with.

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=807895.msg9605839#msg9605839 date=1321929051]If i were your mother, I'd be so ashamed.

Saying your mother's specialty was Ichafu is supposed to prove what exactly? Do you know what you're posting or did you just want to join the discussion?[/quote]Bet you're regretting opening this thread. "What was I thinking?"

Lace invented by Yoruba. Shirt invented by Yoruba. Motorcycle invented by Yoruba. Is it only head tie? Courtesy of the original poster.

@ Ezeagu

In 1830, the equivalent of a GAP store in iboland would have been a rafia palm.

Where are your 9th century bronzes? Arab conquest.

I'll claim somebody else's culture and claim I influenced others. "Swagger".

BATMAN!

lagcity:
for where? we neva met Arabs. ask the people who were part of Ghana, Mali and Songhay Empires.

Ask them about Benin that ran through you to them? Oh, you're talking about the origin of your Islamic conquest, e.g current attire.

"Tear themselves apart", hah, ironic. . . .

oh i know that already, Igbo traditional garb is rafia grass. that's where the name Igbo comes from

Igbo wear raffia grass. Yoruba were tossed around by Arabs. Deal.

abeg go sleep. so iboland, south africa and liberia were not "conquered"? oh i forgot, it is called pacification . Achebe wrote abt it in his first novel

Igbo traditional clothing isn't desert Arabic.

Bat wing "swagger".

Up Isiagu ACN! Sidenote: Is that guy doin the Heil Hitler Must be the heat from the dinosaur bat wings.

Impeccable tast: Today's leaders are no longer interested in batwings. Superhero capes. Something professional, like an Isiagu, is best suited.

[quote author=Jenifa_ link=topic=807895.msg9605580#msg9605580 date=1321924536]yup. that's yoruba business attire.  
wedding attire on the other hand is more   [/quote]More meaning desert Arab drapes?

Impeccable taste among dinosaurs.

[quote author=Jenifa_ link=topic=807895.msg9605569#msg9605569 date=1321924364]none of these governors will dress like that to a yoruba event.[/quote]True, they trawl through an Arabs closet for that.

The chosen attire for today's African leaders. No more dinosaur clothing. No more excessing folding.[/center]

That's right, some people modified Arab clothing and some modified grass.

Better grass than for your grass house to be set ablaze by a Fulani crew, no? Ran through by Arabs.
