Food / Re: Igbo Soups All Nigerian Tribes Enjoy by Raf4: 8:06pm On Apr 01 |
SmartMen:
You are ignorant and that ignorance is borne out of your lack of travel and interactions with other Southerners.
Ofe Nsala is not the same as what you call South South Soup. The only white soup i know from Delta state is Egusi Soup without palm oil and that’s what they call white soup over there.
It’s only Akwa Ibom people that have something close to Nsala but they are not the same.
igbos own Egusi soup, you might not like to hear it.
As far as Nigeria is concerned, only Igbos and Akwa Ibom people have variety Soups and they are the ONLY ones who should be debating soups in Nigeria.
The rest of you should go manage what you have.
Ask the elders around you, they will tell you the truth that the word Egusi is alien to igboland or at best a borrowed word. Melon in Igbo language is called Enini or Elili. Melon in Yoruba language is called Egusi or Egunsi. You can search online for Yoruba and Igbo dictionary. It's only Yoruba that use egusi as addictive to other soup e.g adding egusi to ewedu, okro, ilasa, isapa and various vegetables. Yoruba also use egusi for many things like snacks e.g. robo (egusi cake), alapa (roasted egusi to prepare a kind of moi moi) etc. 3 Likes 1 Share |

I went to Catholic primary and secondary schools, so my opinions are not based on hearsay. My primary school taught us to be better catholics. I used to serve mass in the morning before class every school day. When they taught you to be a better Catholic/Christian, did they teach you to be a worse scientist/educationist/professional etc? |

babasolution: Actually my post isn't about the church but about the colonial GENERATION who destroyed Nigeria.
There's a common denominator about them All they know and understand is religion.
For the Christians their ultimate focus is church church ,Bible ,God etc.
The Muslims is the same.
They are the generation that killed all thriving industries and created the current booming religion industry in NIG.
That has been their legacy has they bow out, Religion.
They have built nothing They have left nothing
Younger generation are building Nigeria from the ground up.
The only thing the colonial GENERATION have built successfully in Nigeria is the religious industry with thriving booming churches worldwide and Islamist fundamentalism.
No technology, no innovation, no economic progress, no infrastructure, no political advancement, no industries,only few businesses,no rule of law,no educational advancements etc .
only Religion, only religion You mean that the Church that has no constitutional roles or power in Nigeria is the one killing Nigeria? Is it the Church that make your country not to be able to generate, transmit or distribute sufficient power for more than a century, whereas Churches are enjoying 24/7 power they generate themselves in their various camp grounds/cities. Is it the Church that is handling or padding your national budget? The best run schools, hospitals, rehabs, motherless homes etc in Nigeria today are owned by the Church or Christian individuals. FYI, many people usually run to Church as their last hope for treatment/healing, accommodation, feeding and all sorts of help. 12 Likes 1 Share |

Ogiame: The name of the Op is everything you need to know about an Obsessed Insecured Fellow.
When the South East choose to protests, you refer to them as "Haters of One Nigeria."
South East refuses to protest; you describe them as docile and subservient.
Says an impostor. No befitting name from your region to use? Must you hide under other people's identity?
Face the incompetent buffoon called Tinubu, your brother, whom you elevated to power via bigotry.
You and the professor nor get talk.

AntiZikist:
The eastern parts of Ukraine conducted a referendum to leave Ukraine after the US coup.
The referendum was duly recognised by both Kiev and the breakaway regions in the Minsk agreement brokered by Germany .
But Kiev will later renegade on the agreement and start a brutal genocidal war using Banderist Azov militia that are known for their anti Russian racist ideology.
Zelensky campaigned on restoring both the Minsk agreement and recognising the breakaway oblasts to the east and also normalising relations with Russia.
When he got into office he did the very opposite and ramped up the attacks on the eastern oblasts while hosting NATO biolabs and opening talks to join NATO bloc.
The rest is history. Before this happened, are you aware of the agreement between Ukraine and Russia when Ukraine transferred all their nuclear weapons to Russia? Did Russia keep to the agreement for up to 10years b4 breaking it and started attacking Ukraine territories? |
