Some Igbo parents in Lagos and Enugu do not let their kids speak Igbo. But see this Igbo boy born, bread, and buttered in China by a Chinese mother, enjoying Igbo local food cooked by his Chinese mother. He speaks, not even in Central Igbo, but his Igbo dialect.

Although he missed some words, replacing them with English, his intonation is sound. Other Igbo parents need to learn a lesson from here...

Nice one

How do people eat this thing?

I was offered a gift to consume a small bowl of Ukwa here in Akwa sometimes in 2021(During ArchBishop of Akwa Anglican diocese, Alex Ibezim visit to one St.Mary's church back then)

I used to believe i could eat every edible thing on earth until i tried that. I couldnt take more than two spoons (didnt get the gift either)

Una dey chop anything. With all due respect to your culture and tradition, that shii looks like shiii

it depends on mindset. If someone is used to eating slimy green stuffs prepared with unhygienic kitchen broom, it'll take a while for the person's brain to adjust and appreciate delicious meals.

That's wonderful to see the bonding of two different cultures.

Haha! Looks like this is true👇👇👇

I noticed that my two older kids stopped carrying lunch box to school on Fridays, when I asked them why, they told me that it wasn't necessary since they dismiss by 12 noon and I believed them.

One day I was relaxing on the couch when my second daughter came to me and started a conversation.

Second daughter: Mummy, please change the food you use to pack in our lunch box, I don't like it.

Me: What is wrong with the food?

Second daughter: Nothing is wrong with it, it's just that it's village food😲

Me: What is wrong with village food? Don't you like it?

Second daughter: I'm the only one that brings village food to school in our class and anytime I bring out my lunch box, everybody will start laughing at me 😲😲😲

I started thinking for a smart idea 🤔🤔🤔

Me: Last academic session in your school, who took the first position in your class?

Second daughter: Me

Me: Last two academic sessions, who took first position in your class?

Second daughter: Me

Me: This academic session, who will take first position in your class?

Second daughter: Me

Me: How sure are you that you will take first position this session, what is someone else takes the position?

Second daughter: I'm very sure that I will take the first position, I'm the one who answers all the questions in class, my classmates don't usually know the answer 😲

Me: Why don't your classmates know the answer? Is it not the same teacher, same class, same books and same head that all of you have? Why do you always know the answer?

Daughter: Thought for a while 🤔 and said, I don't know what their problem is, they are always reading their book, they don't play like me, yet they still won't know the answer when teacher asks question🤷

Me: Let me tell you the reason. They eat English food and you eat correct Igbo food. Their English food only deposit fat under their skin making them plumpy and fresh but doesn't add any nutrient to their brain. The Igbo food you eat doesn't deposit fat under your skin, that's why you're not plumpy like them, it sends all the nutrients to your brain, that's why you're always taking the first position.

Daughter: Wow! Now I know!

My first daughter who was listening to the conversation started laughing 😲

First daughter: Mummy! Mummy! Chai 😁😁

Me: Do you think I'm joking? Don't you come first in your class too? So you think that I don't know what I'm doing by giving you correct Nsukka delicacies?🤷

First daughter: Are you really serious?

Me: Yes naw, it's because your brain is well nourished. God created every brain to be intelligent, you're the one who will nourish your brain with real food, not oyibo foods.

They both kept quiet 🤐

Me: When you go to school tomorrow, bring out your lunch box boldly, if they start laughing at you, laugh harder and louder. Tell them that it's those English food they are eating that is making them not to understand anything in class. Laugh very well, use that same style they use when bullying you 😏🥴😏

They both agreed that my plan is perfect 😁😁

Sense won't k!ll me ni 😏😁😁😁

It's been long and I haven't heard any complain or anyone rejecting lunch box.

Any food I cook, except swallow, that's what you're carrying to school straight 🤷

Whether it's Okpa, echicha, Igbangwu (Itipe), Otipi, Ayaraya ji, Egwusi stew, etc. 🤷

The taste increases when I sit on the floor and eat with my hands😋😋😋

Nsukka people get food jare 😋😋😋😋

Make una clap for our Ancestors jooo 👏👏👏

Their level of nutritional intelligence is pro max👍

Point of correction. It's awka or Oka not whatever you wrote there.
Secondly, not everyone enjoys ukwa. I don't eat it and i have only tasted it twice in 2010 and 2012.

But it still beats this
