Same way they christened your forefathers as NYANMINRIN.

Omoawoke2:
Even the idea of adding feathers to caps was from the British

They just copied and pasted

Omoawoke2:
Why do igbos where winter cap as traditional cap? That’s the question

tishbite42:
But we ain't answer that

Omoawoke2:
Every human were once naked, even the whites were once naked

But civilization came very late to the igbos. The Yorubas have long evolved centuries before the igbos came out of bush

When Yorubas were building empires, when oyo empire was thriving, the igbos were still inside bush.

Even Ajayi crowther discovered Onistha and described them as uncivilized

BrodaBenad:
Igbos have been into fabrics too long ago

Western pigs keep getting Thier lies bursted every seconds

Lie lie tribe!

Seee the thread oyinbo historian exposed them as Hausa osus!

Fejoku:
When you understand that the average Yoruba man is filled with hate for Ndigbo, you will start to see the reasons behind their constant attacks on us through any means possible. Our progress scares them and puts them in a state of frenzy. What we have to do is to counter them every time they come up with their attacks and after that launch our own attacks on them.
I'm presently cooking a lot of topics which I'll use to launch attacks on them.
They called for it and they will surely get it.

Omoawoke2:
Just need to know

This is simply a winter cap.
How come the igbos adopted a winter cap from the British as traditional caps.

Omoawoke2:
Tell your Igbo chiefs to stop disgracing blacks. Wearing a winter cap as a symbol of identity is degrading

Omoawoke2:
Mention one progress that you have ?

You are all in Yoruba land aren’t you?

Omoawoke2:
That cap is not indigenous to Africa but worn during winter.

Head warmer/winter cap

That CAP IS CALLED OKPU NWA-AGORO AND IT HAS BEEN WITH THE IGBOS SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME

FOCUS ON YOUR YORUBA TRIBE

That’s true, but is it that Igbos did not have any identity before British.

Why would a winter cap be your identity?

There’s no winter in west Africa

Zxcvbnmghtr:
It is very obvious that it is borrowed from the white men and now used as proudly a cultural identity because fact showed that they were using palm leaves to cover their na'kedness before the coming of the British. They were not civilized enough to have invented a traditional weaving machine like the one Yorubas have even since before the coming of the British, you know, the Aso oke.

Hence, just to broaden your perspective.

Omoawoke2:
Okay good, but why do igbos wear winter cap as a symbol of their identity

The red cap is obviously a winter cap

Couldntfigurean:
the second name for you yoruba people should be propaganda
I won’t be suprised if y’all claim you wore balenciaga before the British arrived

SUPERPACK:
Can you please show us a white man wearing the Igbo cap design before 1960 please.

ChiefJusticeFuc:
You are right.

The red fez cap that Ibo chiefs wear were originally introduced into Ibo traditional attire by WW1 veterans.

The red fez cap was a standard head gear for the British African Expedition force - an auxillary unit of the allied forces that were deployed not only in WW1 but later in the jungle fronts in Burma in WW2.

Ibo contemporary cultural wear is very recent and dates back to the 1920s to after WW2.

The osigo print was appropriated as cultural wear sometime in the 70s in Ibo meetings outside Ibo land as a cultural uniform of distinction.

Ibo are playing serious catch-up as they had barely any culture prior to British colonial rule

Am enjoying his foolery...

Where Una lie never reach bikonu lmao 😂

So every people have to have a kingdom before they're considered civilised?

Clown 🤡

Civilisation is majorly based on

1. Advanced agriculture ability for a people to cultivate stuff . Igbos are known farmers infact when whites came they were coming to collect agricultural products from Igbos along the coast line.
