Egusi is Benin, not Yoruba!!!!
You guys are terrible cooks?
Where in Yoruba Land have you historically grown egusi?
Igbos have a better claim than you?
But it's still benin

Tell us what YOUR OWN TRIBE ISOKO has contributed to Nigerian cuisine instead of your unnecessary hating and bickering.
All these minorities and their low self esteem ehn?! It stinks to the high heavens.

You Started attacking minority tribes because I only stated that egusi belongs to the bini people and igbos had a better claim

No, I attacked you BECAUSE rather than contributing meaningfully to the topic at hand, you came cruising into the thread sucking dick and insulting at the same time.

What do the Edos, Urhobos, Isokos, Ishans and all the other minorities in that region call Egusi, if not Ikpogiri.
Yorubas call melon seeds Egusi and nothing else.

Minority shaming as usual, Yeribanzaz are hardcore tribalist walahi even between yourselves. When Yoruba Christians are oppressing Yoruba Muslims daily in ekiti and ondo, why won't you find it easy to opress minority tribes and drag soup with them grin grin

lol co.ck sucking will not save you. You even had repeat street talk and cower under igbos to take a meaningless jab at Yorubas. As long as Nigeria remains one an Igbo man is free to live in Lagos either as a tenant or a land owner, same way an Isoko like you is free to lease a farmland for manual labour in Ore or crush palm kernels for people in Ekiti.
Binis and other Edos do not natively call melon Egusi but Ikpogi. You FAIL (as usual).

So Yoruba and Igbo don’t share ogiri and egusi? Ndi Anambra and Enugu don’t share words with Yorubas (as in kpomo, shaki, oyibo) with Yorubas? Igbos didn’t birth akwa ocha culture from the Yoruba asoebi culture? That right? Yorubas and Igbos don’t eat some form of jollof rice?

How many aged people in anambra know what kpomo means or shaki..


Never heard such trash in my wildest Imagination if I haven't step outside.

Stop Insulting Igbo nation with stupidity and nonsense.

But dont you think if the benins have recently borrowed they would have called it egusi thesame exact name the original owner calls it or even a corrupt similar form but they are calling it a different name should make you have second thought dont you think...
Again the eastern yorubas call it thier traditional food unlike the western yorubas who eat it but don't acknowledge it as thier as and we know benin and eastern yorubas had have contact through out history to dtaw this connection

Yorubas have Iru and not Ogiri,the both are very different in preparation and in use,nobody uses Kpomo and shaki in Igboland except those of us who grew in Lagos,Highest we call it is "Imeju anu" or Kanda Which is obviously from the Hausa word Ganda(or So,have forgotten what they call it),Dianyi are you sure you are Igbo?
Oyibo(Igbo) and Onyibo(Yoruba) are very different,if you understand Yoruba you would know this
Secondly only the word "Asoebi" is of Yoruba origin,the culture is shared only that Igbos didn't have a name for it,just like we don't have a native name for fried plantain it doesn't mean that the Yoruba invented it because Dodo is more popular

People were minding their own business when some folks took it upon themselves to accuse Yorubas of appropriating Egusi soup.

Was it Yorubas who started that or why are you saying Yorubas are dragging other people's soup?

Go through all the soup threads on nairaland, you'll see Yorubas have never debated anybody's soup nor shown unnecessary interest in soups that are not theirs. The provocateurs here are not Yorubas. Why would Yorubas be dragging soup with any tribe? They're not that immature.

Kpomo, egusi, ogiri, akara, moi-moi oyibo, shaki, okoro and ejime for twins in upland igboland and much of Yorubaland and that’s a hard fact. By all means tell everyone how much you hate ndi Yoruba but the fact that we share foods and other cultural marks in common doesn’t mean you have to deny that because you don’t want to forge an affinity with the opposing side.

Not many aged Igbos from the likes of Imo and Abia state know the likes of kanda and bekee as kpomo and oyibo but northern and western Igbos definitely do. Southern Igbos don’t cook with ogiri or particularly acknowledge egusi as one of their staple ofes but Anambra and Enugu do just as people from certain parts of so-called Yorubaland do. Hate on Yoruba people all you like but you can’t deny the patent ancestral links between Yoruba, northern Igbo and Igala.

No. The Yoruba equivalent of okpei/dawadawa/locust bean seasoning is what is known as iru. Ogiri proper (as in castor oil ogiri/ogiri egusi) is used in certain parts of Yorubaland as it is in northern igboland and ogiri is the same name certain ‘Yorubas’ use for it as well. Don’t say what you don’t know. Ogede’s also shared as a word and it’s no wonder that it’s the upland Igbos who are more influenced by Igala use it.

People from upland ala Igbo don’t tend to use kanda more than kpomo just like we say obodo oyibo over ala bekee.

And what’s the difference in your eyes between oyibo (igbo) and oyinbo (Yorubaland)? Are you sure you’re saying what you actually know?
