Mariangeles:An interesting thread. It shows the different names that folks in Nigeria call this delicacy. Surprisingly, after doing a quick scan of the feedbacks from pages 1 to 6, I noticed that the Yoruba folks have up to five names for this winged insect delicacy depending on regional Yoruba dialects, but Esunsun is the most prevalent name. Hausas call it Shinge, Ibos call it Aku with other suffix variants added to Aku, Ebiras call it Ivo, Bini-Edos call it Edon, Esan-Edos call it Irikhun, Tivs call it Hur, Akwa Ibom and Cross Rivers folks call it Ndube. 2 Likes |

One thing I hate about Africans is, we know how to consume, we have no clue how to produce. This thing na curse we get from time. When our forefathers ate birds, rats and snakes, no one thought up the idea of rearing the creatures. I’ve heard and read of these seasonal termites since I was a little boy. It’s 2024 and nobody has created a means to farm them despite the testament of their delicious taste. God (if real) really build oyibos differently. |
