That is akpu miri and aki beke in igbo. Abacha are those once
They cut so silm, dry them sometimes and prepare them like
African sallad. We put dry meat, kpumor or kanda wif gardern egg
And uterzi(don't knw d english name) in abacha and wash it down
Wif palm wine. Very nutritious.

Men its not native †☺ the urhobos. But let ♍ε̲̣̣̣ conjure a name. Coconut Iڪ cocodia Ǎ̜̣̍Ϟd cassava Iڪ imidaka. Well its widely known as bobozi here so I guess its safe †☺ call it cocodia kugbe bobozi which means coconut with whatever English name bobozi has.
