True that. One of my aunt does thee same thing.
But I just dnt get how ppl do it esp when dealing with a nigerian man, guess it all boils down to trust.

I rem ezeuche, but what has he stolen? Give me a month to crush his ego and he'll be eating out of my palms. Only a yoruba man can handle this. Ezeuche knows that wink

Yoruba men sleep well. Thatz why they have extra fatty skin around their neck cool
Isn't that also why you prefer moderate men like EzeUche?

And to answer your question, it is like asking whether a lion is a cat.

Abacha is a superior (by far) form of salad.  cool cool cool The only thing that makes it a salad is the anara/afufa + ugba/ ukpaka + azu mangala +. . . raised to power "n" if you are into Mathematics.
Why make a brother salivate in public, why?

I was born in Enugu, but since Ibo culture is patriarchal I'm from Imo State. I'm kinda in the same boat with my dad. He was born and partially raised in the north but is from Imo State. Technically speaking I'm not "fully" Igbo. My grandmother is a Cross River woman which makes my mother half Ibo. I acknowledge both my Cross River and Ibo heritage though.


yep, i knew it, we're related LOL. My mom's side is Mbieri. I dont know what Obazu is so no comment on that.

Please no pun intended, are you Igbo? You can only be forgiven if you are not from Igbo land, or if your part of Igbo land is not into abacha. I am yet to meet an Igbo that doesn't know this dish.

African salad is a slang or colloquial term used in Lagos for one Igbo dish with abacha, ugba and some other ingredients. I can't remember the Igbo name, so that's why I called it that.

Is there a group of people known as Bansara?
Re: What Part Of Igboland Are You From. by Mortiple(m): 1:37pm On Oct 12, 2010
I represent Eziama-Obiato, Mbaitoli LGA, Imo State, the ONLY town wherein a palm-tree has three branches. cheesy (The town has 3 villages that is why we are called Obi-ato meaning three hamlets/villages and NOT three mind/heart, as some people erroneously think).

For many that are familiar with Onitsha-Owerri Road, it is the community that habours the popular Ukwuorji Bus Stop after Njaba-River Bridge. Interestingly, the 'little' community shares common boundaries with four local govt in Imo State - Akabo-Ejemekwuru in Uguta LGA, Awo-omamma in Oru LGA, Umuaka (Njaba LGA) and other Mbaitoli towns viz Afara and Umunoha.

It is important to note that Eziama-Obiato has no ancestral link with any other town, village or kindred that go by that name 'Eziama' in Igboland.
