Hon please what do you think is the difference between Yoruba and Igbo Jollof Rice, which one sweet pass

Sorry, I don't think there is any difference, but Yoruba jollof rice might be a little bit peppery compared to the Igbo's version. Also Igbo jollof rice might contain crayfish and maybe some vegetables; it is just my own observation, but there is no much difference.
