ThatFairGuy1:
Egusi is actually Yoruba word.

Though almost all African eat it

WELL, I WONT ARGUE WITH YOU, BECAUSE EVEN YOU DONT BELIEVE THE CRAP YOU CLAIM.


BESIDES I DID NOT WRITE THIS ARTICLE.


IGBOS ARE SERIOUS VEGETARIANS. ONLY PEOPLE THAT CAN MATCH THE IGBOS ARE THE CALABAR PEOPLE. (AKWACROSS)


THAT MELON SEED SOUP CAME FROM THEM.

Igbo egusi weh Dey white like New born baby 💩… you need to see Egusi Ijebu.. God bless Yoruba land

It sounds more yoruba than any other language.

FOOTSOLDIER2:
People asking egusi na igbo soup, Shey the name "Egusi" sounds like Yoruba or Hausa to your ears ?


I'm from Kaduna state but you people will always jealous Igbos

I disagree. Every tribe has the way they utilise Egusi. If you eat yoruba 'osiki' you will know that the soup originally belongs to the yorubas.

Tommydare:

IT IS ACTUALLY EGWUSI AND PRONOUNCED EGUSI.

IT IS NOT A YORUBA WORD.


YOU HAVE NOTHING THAT COMES CLOSE TO THAT IN TERMS OF SOUP.


AFTER EGWUSI SEED, U WILL SEE UZIZA SEED, OGBONO SEED AND MORE. ALL IGBO SOUPS.

Coder2Client:
Is Egusi an igbo soup?

EreluRoz:

Mr,Egusi is not a Yoruba word but Igbo . Learn to be sensible.The soup originated from Igboland.

Don't mind them. Yoruba jealous Igbos in everything

Forget Wikipedia. I can go there and dump anything I want. Yoruba staple soups are Ewedu and efo. Everybody knows it.

Egusi is the anglicized version of Ogwusi or Egwusi, depending on the Igbo dialect.

GO TO GHANA, OGBONO SOUP THEY THERE, BUT IT DOES NOT CHANGE THE FACT THAT IT ORIGINATED FROM NIGERIA.



IGBOLAND PRECISELY

Egusi soup as the name goes is yoruba words for melon soup. In igbo is egwusi soup. In akwa ibom it is call ikon. Various ethnic groups in Nigeria have a name for it in their dialect.
Even outside Nigeria as mentioned here in nairaland, other tribes in certain countries have a name for it as well in their local dialect.
The appropriate name for it is melon seed soup. No tribe especially my ibo brethren have any right or claim over the soup origin. Since it is native to all tribes that have the plants growing in their lands.
The same right an ibo have over it is the same right a yoruba, edo, ibibio and other ethnicity in Nigeria have as well.
Let not be misinform pls and op always do ur research well before posting.

dominique:
Ogbono soup did not make the list, is it not an Igbo soup?

Na Edo people get that one.

show your proof

Asswipemod:
You better don't worry yourself. If Igbos can claim Lagos as their ancestral land, they can claim anything in Nigeria.

Hahaha

Maximiliannnn:
Your tribalism is A1
Eguisi is Igbo soup like wise as Amala na Yoruba food. Said the truth once and shame the devil. Am from Ekiti

Not only Ekiti and Ondo too

This Igbo people self ;F

From some of the comments above, Igbophobic hybridised rabid animals are already WAILING even over Igbo dishes like Egwusi soup.
Lol!! Is there nothing about We Igbos that won't make Igbophobic rabid animals bark, howl,bleat on this forum?
This is interesting!
Egwusi soup is Igbo soup.
During colonial times, whites could not pronounce the GW sound properly and called it Egusi.
That is how the alternate spelling spread and became popularised.

Egusi has no other name in Yoruba land,since immemorial,so which one be Igbo Soup here!
Why is it that everything we politise or tribalism?
I beg OP , please park somewhere!

Egusi is a choice for many ethnicities in West Africa. It is not only the Igbo that have it. Melon is grown and used as a soup condiment all over our subregion. In fact, my father and his ancestors in Yoruba land knew nothing else called egusi. For us, egusi is a Yoruba word!

Asswipemod:
Even the word "egunsi" is not Igbo. This inferiority complex has been shifted to food. Oga o.

which one is egunsi hahahahahaha
