I see what u mean.

I know igbos have a special "egusi soup" recipe that's igbo.
yorubas also have special "egusi soup" "obe egusi" that's yoruba.

but the word egusi itself is yoruba.

[quote author=One_Naira link=topic=807895.msg9620117#msg9620117 date=1322092211]The name maybe, a bit doubtful since its also named egusi in Twi.  The Egusi soup is not yoruba.  

http://books.google.com/books?id=1s-a7EMM6BgC&pg=PA13&dq=Egusi+igbo&hl=en&ei=vIXNTtWhJ4Xn0QHl-NQX&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=3&ved=0CD4Q6AEwAjgK#v=onepage&q=Egusi%20igbo&f=false[/quote]stop quoting a book that was published in 2005! you can't compare it to one written in 1857 about yorubas.
and besides the recent book you quoted said only "westernized igbos" used the word. aka they lived in lagos. lol

egusi is most certainly a yoruba word.

CultureRe: Yoruba, Igbo And Acculturation (or Multiculture) by Jenifa1: 1:28am On Nov 23, 2011
odumchi,
you are confusing d definition of culture here.

culture is always influx. tradition is passed on from one generation to d next.  Americans or Europeans didn't wear jeans (pants) 200 years ago. But jeans are now markedly a part of western culture. it has also been passed down enough generations that they can be considered a western traditional wear.

I think Ileke-idi made it clear that more flamboyant gele is part of[i] modern[/i] yoruba culture. I'll put this to the fact that the (mostly imported) material used to make gele nowadays has more flexibility/malleability than the locally woven thick fabric (aso oke) used previously by our ancestors. So there is lots of opportunity for creativity with the modern gele.

I found the picture from a Nigerian website, it was listed as Yoruba.  Pele if it's not Yoruba.  It gladly supports my claim that Sudano-Sahelian attire spread throughout West Africa and noone beside them can claim agbada.

If it makes you feel any better, you can replace that picture with this one for comparison.  Posted by Ileke-idi herself.

And what is that outfit Fashola is wearing huh
Ezeagu,thanks for posting that Fashola pics!! Let me see what will happen now !!
fashola was attending a  non-yoruba event  (he donated a creche to a catholic church in lagos). so he had to dress appropriately. It still has a yoruba look. but more subtle

Igbo people call head tie "ichafu isi", yorubas call it gele.
And what is that outfit Fashola is wearin
Ezeagu,thanks for posting that Fashola pics!! Let me see what will happen now !!
yoruba people call head tie "ibori"
"gele" is a special kind of ibori that is more flamboyant. usually made with stiffer material (woven aso-oke, damask etc) that can hold up the elaborate styles.
