Okpa is good, e dey full bele. But moimoi is far better. It's like you are saying pomon is better than meat. Saying crayfish is better than Titus fish. Oga don't keep your ague farward. If better chef cook moimoi for you. Let me stop there

Enugu okpa is good and tasty but have you been to Ekwulobia??

Go to Ekwulobia park or Eke Ekwulobia and eat Ntucha aka okpa aka Okpa ntucha.

Well, I didn't school around Ekwulọbịa.

While I grew up at Onitsha, Anambra people use to yab Enugu people - Ndị Enugu, o ji ọkpa añụ tea (Enugu people, the people that use ọkpa (instead of bread) to drink tea. Enugu ọkpa is still the best, nonetheless, I prefer the ones made at Akị na Ụkwa junction. cool

Those two are not meant to be compared. Moi-moi is moi-moi; okpa is okpa.

@illicit, are you surprised by his ignorance, on the one hand, and its hate for something Yoruba on the other hand?

It's part of the season of cultural appropriation by these easterners. Why didn't he praise Okpa on its own. Okpa is a good food. In fact, some would prefer it to moi-moi. However, moi-moi, laced with all the condiments and 7 spirits of culinary, as you said, is in a world of its own. Nothing compares to it.

Igbos try to garner relevance for their fading culture by associating these fading things with the Yoruba's.

Let Igbos eat their okpa and let the Yoruba or whoever, salivate over the lingering aroma of our assorted moi-moi.
