It's Akwa-Ibomites/Cross-Riverians Soup.

It's mainly vegetables.

That's Pumpkin and Waterleaf. You add lots of ingredients like Fish, fresh n dry, Periwinkle and other things.

So it is my "Edikang Ikong" you're calling "Erikaiko"?

Back to the river Siene...

I have just been told it was lady Gaga that led that opening choreography in pink colors...didn't even recognize her in those costumes even though she's refused to age 😳

The French anthem is romantically sung opera style by a delectable French lady.
President Marron and his overaged wife stand to acknowledge their anthem....
Me: I'm still wondering which Anthem dem go play for Nigeria 🇳🇬 when we win a medal later in the games 🤔

Watch and see, the single mistake will avert bad luck

Myrrhis:
It's beautiful, but the green is not our shade.

Who approved the colour?
Details like that should be taken seriously when representing in a world tournament like the Olympics.

onome25:


As in na fashion parade we go do there
We too de pretend for every thing for this country
Now if people outside this country see us like this , them no go ever know say problem full this country trowe
I beg make them wear rag go there jare as Nigeria na jagaja

HATE FULL HEART SPOTTED. SORE LOSER.

Hedonisco:
I can't believe the Olympics kicked off and nobody seems interested. Even I sef had no idea and had to Google the host and the date. Just shows how badly things are deteriorating.

This used to be a VERY big deal back in the days.

Maybe we got busier, or things have deteriorated like you said. There was no hype whatsoever about these games. I remember how I used to look forward to the opening ceremony, lighting of the torch and following the medals table. I even followed some athletes across the different games. Good old days!

I do NOT care about Nigeria or what Nigerians wore to the Olympics because my country is NOT participating. However, I just wanted to point out the hypocrisy of those M0R0NS that were up in arms when the air hostesses of Air Peace Airlines (a private enterprise) wore Isiagu Outfits as their uniform. These idiots were all over social media whining, moaning, and foaming in their nasty mouths like rabid dogs. Now, here comes the Olympics. And those representing your country at the games are forced to wear Yoruba-inspired attire. Where's the outrage and complaints? Where are all the tribal vituperations? All of you FOOLS can go to hell as far as I am concerned.

By the way (for all the ignorant people out there) Team Nigeria wore a variety of attires and they all look good.

Rubbish

This opening ceremony i think is one of the best in ages. The river added in no small measure to the aesthetics and glamour.

Proudly Yoruba. Omo Oduduwa tile tile.

yoruba called it aso oke ghana got name for theirs ,every tribe in Africa weaves their traditional wears

Why must we always disgrace ourselves outside?😡

Quality of everything is dropping

Yoruba are very useless

RollinTNDA:
That green colour has the same colour and pattern of the rag I use at home

Thank God, na only yoruba athletes will wear that trash that looks exactly like my rag

Igbo athletes should wear isi agu (lion head attire)
We don't want yall to look like homeless niggas wearing rags in Paris..

Thank you 😇📌📌📌
One cold beer for u
Or one goat

Had fun watching the opening ceremony

So proud to be a Nigeria

Can we host this in Nigeria?

I pray we do in my lifetime
Amen

Smh. Since you are shocked at the coincidence, let me inform you that the original land owners of Accra are ethnic Yoruba.

That's Aso Oke. Every true Yoruba can identify Aso Oke.
