Who is the author of what you just posted? Give the name.

The only soup Yoruba have is Ewedu and Gbegiri and we all know it’s the traditional soup.

They hardly prepare the so called Egusi is most cases, when they do, they must add stew to it.

Give the author of that book or source. I can wake tomorrow and post that the Yorubas were the first to speak English in Africa.


That’s how someone said Yorubas taught Igbos how To speak English and that A Yoruba man wrote Igbo Bible and when fact started coming out, they couldn’t defend what they started. How can a Yoruba man who does not speak Igbo teach Igbos

I need the name and source of what you posted.
That one is a lie. Perhaps, the person wanted to say that it was Yoruba man that translated English version of Bible to Yoruba Bible.

Yoruba has a lot of varieties of soup, but a lot of them are not popular....


The co-author of the research paper is even an Igbo scholar.

It is obvious you don’t know Jack and that you don’t know Wikipedia can be edited by anybody.
Check the date it was written, it obviously older than all the recent claims of the Igbos.
Una wan wake up December 2022 claim person language.

Egusi is Yoruba Whether you agree with me or not.



Not just Wikipedia. Different materials that dated back to 18th century have even been shared on this thread.

Yoruba Dictionary - melon (Egusi)

Igbo Dictionary - melon (elili/enini)

Your people where the ones who engineered every food as you are the first ones God gave every seed in Eden to hold before HE destroyed the earth with flood .

Being that we all came from Sumer and later Egypt , it is you Igbos that God gave the knowledge as you are all HIS chosen children.


Don't mind those yaribanzas .

Ibos are the greatest tribe .

Even Hitler sent a special expedition force to come and consult your great grand parents so as to unlock the hidden history of the world.

Even Netanyau is wasting his time. If the fake Jews want Zion to come today with Jerusalem as the capital of the world , they must come to Nri and consult with you guys on how to get it

The Levi tribe and the rabbinical tribe are in Ibo land.

Don't mind these British slaves called Nigerians .

Ibo race is the real chosen race.

Even Yeshua Christi real name is Emeka and his mother Mary's real name is Amaka.

Don't mind these Philistines and their house nigger antics.

Ibo people are God's only chosen people and until we all bow to them there will be no peace on earth and heaven because Baba God is angry.

Free Kanu

Free evans


Elect Obi.

Make Enugu the capital of Nigeria and Africa .

I bow to you my Messiah race.

Go and read research journals on the phytobotanical distribution of Egwusi and Okro.. They are all both of Igbo origin.

The words Okro and Egwusi, just like the word 'Una/Unu" are of purely Igbo origin. Lo gba research.

Egwusi is cooked with Ugwu leaves, yorubas did not eat Ugwu before Igbos
Clown cheesy

When Egusi turn Igbo food, the name alone is pure Yoruba.

E-gun-si simply a Yoruba word, grind and cook
Bro na the same word it means in igbo

We call it egwusi that is to grind and cook

Egwu/e= grind
Si = cook

So the inquiry still continue , but since it's original african food , it may be hard to fix the exact origin

Lolz


See this one .

So you think it's the same watermelon 🍉 that you know that is the same variety that is grown for Egusi?

Chai!

Make Una know how to package lie before you disgrace yourselves in public.

By even thinking that Egusi seeds are from watermelon plant shows you know nothing about Egusi and it's cultivation


Scammers

That guy is a typical stupid Igbo man who claims to know it all I swear grin grin grin cheesy

Dsimmer:
Lol. I only stated fact though. Yoruba have Proverbs for Apon soup. Igbo couldn't pronounce Apon thus pronounced it as Ogbon which has no meaning in Igbo language.

Funny how some say ogbono means slimy while another says it means boiling. Lol. Meanwhile, slimy and boiling in Igbo language means another thing entirely. Boiling means "esi" for example. Btw, All soups boils, so why don't Igbo call every soup boiling? Lol. And that's not how boiling is pronounced.

Ogbon means nothing in Igbo language. It was a corruption from the Yoruba Apon.
Seriously, how do people say crap like this with their chest?
Re: Igbo Soups All Nigerian Tribes Enjoy by Probz(m): 6:15pm On Jun 14, 2025
Gustavowhite:
That person wants to use Apon/Ogbon to distract us from Egusi and it seems even you don’t know that Ogbono is gotten from ugiri Aka bush mango

No Yoruba restaurant in Lagos sells the Apon self,you can’t enter any Yoruba owned restaurant and tell them you want to buy “Obe Apon”
Don’t mind them. That guy’s ‘explanation’ of ogbono being a mispronunciation of apon is just ludicrous.
