Michael004:In those days the yorubas that wore agbada ad the yorubas that first rode on horse were the yorubas that shared border with the hausas ad other northern states e.g ibadan,kwara ad co. They acquired dia clothes,weapons ad horses tru trade by batter with the hausas,nupes ad fulanis..After coping dia dress code they passed it down to other yorubas,Other yorubas now reinvented dia own style. 2 Likes |

Crazytrump:Agbada has to Make you proud . the beauty of Agbada is to swing the over flowing garment in a readjustment position by your both arms if you cant do that then its not Agbada its Agbede ! that asides that We can still say Ebuka is another brand of AGBADA sha and the fact that it is Ebuka tailor that invented it, it doesnt not mean that it is Igbo identity . Yoruba owns it period. Igbo can still go and tie their wrapper and wear their Aposhe aso Ibinu anyhow they want let them leave our dress for us 2 Likes |

gypsey: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Agbada is one of the names for a flowing wide sleeved robe worn by men in much of West Africa, and to a lesser extent in North Africa, related to the dashiki suit[citation needed]. The name "Agbada" originates from Yoruba language, one of the major languages on the continent. The robe is also known as Agbada in Dagomba language. Agbada is known by various names, depending on the ethnic group wearing them: Agbada (Yoruba , Dagomba ), boubou (from the Wolof word mbubb), babban riga (Hausa), mbubb (Wolof), k'sa or gandora (Tuareg), darra'a Maghrebi Arabic, grand boubou (in various Francophone West African countries) and the English term of gown.

Danladi7:The generic word itself is called, "Kaftan", which is an Arabic word. Showing that it was associated with middle eastern culture However, with variations. In west Africa, including Nigeria the fashion was first made popular in Senegal/Mali which was probably introduced through the trans Saharan trade. The Kaftan was for decades or even centuries first popular in Northern Nigeria before reaching down south to the Yorubas Mind you you can argue that there are slight differences but that's the beauty of the Kaftan, different cultures have made modifications to it. 3 Likes |

I wrote this on another thread yesterday, I will post it here again...Ebukas outfit was not an agbada. (Ok... am I the only one who thinks ebukas agbada was not an "agbada"? My reason is simple.An agbada is a symbol of maturity,a flowing garment won by men as a symbol of attainment of age,wealth,wisdom or social influence. Ideally a boy cannot wear the agbada with grace, the flowing robe would not just sit right.So when ebukas takes the flowing awesomeness of the agbada and clips it into stylish submission.its no longer an agbada but a tunic.An odd mix of cultures from East,South south and the West is what I would use to describe the outfit and not "agbada the only thing missing is buttons and chains E.g,you wouldn't call a bikers leather jacket,a blazer because it looks like one) 2 Likes 1 Share |

Ekealterego:lol..where did you get this from? Agbada Encyclopedia of Clothing and Fashion COPYRIGHT 2005 The Gale Group, Inc. AGBADA Agbada is a four-piece male attire found among the Yoruba of southwestern Nigeria and the Republic of Benin, West Africa. It consists of a large, free-flowing outer robe (awosoke ), an undervest (awotele), a pair of long trousers (sokoto ), and a hat (fìla ). The outer robe—from which the entire outfit derives the name agbada, meaning "voluminous attire"—is a big, loose-fitting, ankle-length garment. It has three sections: a rectangular centerpiece, flanked by wide sleeves. http://www.encyclopedia.com/fashion/encyclopedias-almanacs-transcripts-and-maps/agbada-0 1 Like |

An agbada is a flowing robe, controlled by the "One thousand ,Five hundred".... If you don't get that joke,you have really no say on the agbada conversation,just call your contraption something else. |
