That red, spiced rice dish loved in every city and town ‘South of the Sahara’ and along the coast of West Africa,That life saver at every social functions, call it Jollof Rice, Jolof Rice, Joll of Rice, Djolof Rice, Osikapa Jelof, Red rice or Party rice, you are right. Adults and children love this spicy and tasty rice meal.

A Jollof rice is a favourite meal in the West African region and very popular amongst Nigerians and Ghanaians alike..

Recently there was  an harmless  tussle  and disagreement among citizens of western states of Africa as to the country that cooks the best and the most delicious jollof rice, No country ever really won the jollof rice argument but Nigerians wanted to have the heads of their information minister when he replied  Richard Quest on live TV that "Senegal probably makes the best jollof rice"(why did he say this?you will know at the end of the post)

But be it Nigerian jollof, Senegalese jollof, Ghanaian jollof etc they call came from the same origin traceable to the Jollof tribe in the Senegambia region of West Africa. Jollof rice is also called Benachinân in the Wolof language. The Kingdom of Jolof (French : Djolof or Diolof ), also known as Wolof and Wollof, was a West African rump state located in what is today the nation of Senegal .
they are main exporters of Rice and they grow different rice species, and their king is called Burba Jollof.. Just like we have Ooni of Ife, Emir of kano etc..
