Hahaha Wolof is not a food. It's the name of a tribe.
I know it's a tribe in Senegal and they actually own the rice. From what I know, it's called wolof rice.

Because the Senegalese are the originators of jollof rice, it automatically becomes the best?
Or what are you trying to type cos me I don't understand​

Are you trying to say, for example, Graham Bell made the first phone so that makes his phone the best phone or even better than Nokia 3310?
Don't lie, you just wanted to wow us with your knowledge of jollof rice history,right?
I guess it originated from the Jolof people of Senegal?
grin grin grin grin
And I want to believe you've been wowed.

Your illustration doesn't suit the discuss on ground. I already used a similar example and that's food. If you can nullify that, then I've learnt something.

If the question was the origin of jollof rice, I'd totally side with you.

I mean, it's like asking what the best phone brand is today and someone says Motorola and then, while people like me are trying to come to terms with the rationale behind such a response, someone else in defense now says it's because Motorola invented the handheld mobile phone (they actually did in '73).
Your example would have been more appropriate if was about who makes the best Motorola. Just like Motorola is a brand of phone, so is jollof a type of rice. There are other types of phone just like we have different types of rice.

I'm wondering what the rationale behind "the best Motorola" could be sef. This is not a contest. I don't have to be right. You don't have to be wrong. I'm rather nonplussed.

For what it's worth however, you win.

NIGERIANS BLAST LAI MOHAMMED FOR UNDERATING NIGERIAN JOLLOF RICE ON CNN
source: http://www.eyesoflagos.com/2017/04/nigerians-blast-lai-mohammed-for.html

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed has sparked another uproar on social media.


The information minister was said to have reacted to the buzz CNN's Richard Quest started about who makes the best Jollof.

The battle for Jollof supremacy between Ghana and Nigeria have lasted for a long time, and the information minister has obviously broken the heart of many Nigerians by giving the 'Jollof trophy' to complete outsiders, Senegal.

According to Lai’s response to Quest, “Senegal makes the best jollof“.
