OPCNAIRALAND: No such thing as that. Ankara came to West Africa same time. Yorubas can't wake up overnight and start claiming Ankara. Yoruba culture is Ase Oke. Ndiigbo had Akwete. Yorubas can't wake up overnight and come and be claiming Ankara. , an Indonesian clothing culture. 5 Likes |

Sanchez01: Igbo is a big group. No single typical Igbo clothing style. Those Igbos close to the Atlantic, adopted the same clothing style from the Europeans as the rest of non Igbo speaking coastal tribes. Igbos close to Efik/Ibibio/Annang areas, adopted same clothing style as them. The Anioma adopted same clothing style from the Europeans, alongside the Edo and Edoids. Those of us in the Middle, developed our own unique clothing styles too. So, you don't really come and say " Igbo typically bridal" attire. It is bound to differ according to the Bride's place of origin, or in this day of "pan Igboism", a bride from one Igbo cultural area might choose to wear the clothing style of another Igbo cultural area she likes. 4 Likes |

Kagawa10: You are a normal Ignorant, yet delusional Yoruba person. Everyone with Brain knows the Indonesian- Dutch origin of Ankara. How exactly Yorubas think they can wake up overnight and start using their Lagos-Ibadan den Of falsehoods and propaganda called print media to propagate their agenda in this ICT age is beyond me. 3 Likes |

pazienza: How is Adire Indonesian? Is it an Indonesian name? You're really stupid if you don't know that Yoruba has been making Adire before Ibo ancestors even came to be. Check out this: http://life.guardian.ng/2016/07/a-short-history-of-adire/ And Come back to tell me how it is an indonesian culture? Foolish being! 1 Like 1 Share |

pazienza:So you're telling me that there's no standard bridal dress mode due to the many cultural differences in Igboland, yeah? How about we stick to the five eastern states before going outside to some areas of the South South? How about you share that of Enugu or Anambra, or even Abia state? If you're telling me this, then you're indirectly saying your cannot provide the aforementioned probably because LG defines clothings and all for couples particularly the brides. Urhobo as an ethnic group, is very broad with sub-sects and slight variations cum diversities, YET bridal dressings stay the same. The Yorùbás are scattered by variations, sub-groups, etc but also come to reckon with their dressings during weddings, particularly traditional weddings. The same applies to the Hausas. Let's start with where YOU'RE FROM. HOW ABOUT THAT? 3 Likes 2 Shares |
Re: Ibos Take Aso Ebi To Another Level by pazienza(m): 8:51am On Nov 26, 2016 |
Sanchez01: Urhobo is just Eight local government areas. Ngwa sub group of Igbo for example is made up 7 local governments areas, same as Nsukka sub group. Yorubas had a central setting provided by Oyo empire, Hausas got centralized by Fulani colonists. Ndiigbo never had such central convergence, each group developed independent of the other. 3 Likes |

Onijagidijagan: which greener pasture Igbos in lagos and environ are turning you yorubas to slaves in your own backyard. we are using you yorubas as slaves, doing to you yorubas what chinese and indians are doing to Africans. Erisco tomatoes recently employ as many yoruba slaves as possible. you know the truth egbon, we Igbo will always beat you lazy slave economically. hahaha |
Re: Ibos Take Aso Ebi To Another Level by Sanchez01: 9:07am On Nov 26, 2016 |
pazienza:So this is your defense, just so because you can't tell what brides adorn in Igbo Traditional marriages? Yorùbás HAD a centralized setting, BUT NOT ANY MORE! Haba! Why are you going back and forth? All I asked for was simple and you're here giving me Bashorun Gaa's history. Who cares about that? Can you please provide pictures and stop these hide and seek? I uploaded Edo and Bini pictures earlier. Now do same for Igbo brides. I, for one, would love to learn and add to my knowledge. 2 Likes |

Sanchez01: If you want Igbo bridal dressings, google is your friend. I'm sure you can find thousands of them there, there are even NL topics on that. Stop detailing this topic. Topic is about Ankara clothing a group of Igbos were pictured wearing. Which so far, I had proven is of Indonesian- Dutch origin, and not of any Nigerian group. 1 Like |

pazienza: LOL! What a delusion! You proved nothing! That Yoruba modified their Adire and incorporated some foreign techniques into it doesn't negate the fact that Yoruba started the crafts and the tribe known to wear the craft is Yoruba, Not Ibos! 3 Likes |

pazienza: Ok, let me give you the chronology. Dutch manufactured it for Indonesia. It was not a success there. They brought it to West Africa, Ghana to be specific...it did not succeed. Yorubas put ankara to world stage via ASO EBI. Back when owambe was owambe, in the 70s, Im looking at my grandma picture on the wall in her velvet and gold jewelries and grandpa in his damask as i type. . Back when party happened every weekend in Palmgrove, Isale Eko, Epetedo, Lafiaji, Ilubirin, Surulere, Shitta, Eko Club, Shell Club, Lagos Island Club, Lagos Tennis Club, Mushin, Yaba, Ebute Meta, ..... back when Shagamu, Ijebu Ode, Ayetoro, .... Mr Man, una don spoil Yorubaland for us! Back when my people go party and block five roads just for one party, and you have three or four live bands there entertaining...which kind food you want, which kind drinks, campari sef na free pick which bottle you want. Back then...Yoruba's choice of fabric for aso ebi is Sanyan, Etu and Alaari, Damask, Velvet, Lace, Satin, Guinea. Nobody dey wear ankara go party. Who wear lace pass Yoruba? We get am for different color and pattern and each has its own name. Yorubaland don baje nau, e no dey like before. How about damask, we get different pattern and shades. So for velvet. You go see velvet for soyoyo body your blood go hot as you go see say the baby set well well. We dey wear ankara for Yorubaland before civil war sef...but like I said go look at Yoruba picture in the 60s and see if you spot anybody put ankara for body take snap picture. Ankara na play cloth, na something mommy go wear because she dey kitchen and no wan soil her good clothes. Shey u get? When textile importation tight and economy don baje it became hard to get damask and lace and other expensive stuffs. I no even mention gele sef. That one is a whole book on its own. But as importation and economy and crime spoilt everything, buying expensive and wearing expensive to party lost its taste. Yoruba will never stop owambe...never never never never, and aso ebi will never ever ever stop either...but we reinvented the scene. Its true we did not invent it but each ethnic group can be differentiated in the motif and pattern of ankara worn by them. If you look around today what you see are the Yoruba patterns. We reinvented ankara and made it the preferred stock of aso ebi. Yorubas have also been very stylish. We put styles in ankara that no one ever thought of....we turned it from street hawkers wear and took into the corporate rooms. We put ankara on the catwalk...you hear me? Ankara is what it is today because of Yoruba cultural influence. Even Hausa that does not wear ankara have bought into it and are wearing it now. Ibo has taken it to another level by turning it into a billboard. I hope I answered your question. 3 Likes 1 Share |
