What’s the correlation of woman with inner wrapper? Both ere and gbo is an Igbo word for loin, belly,abdomen, attire. The description says the women are wearing Akwete cloth woven by Akwete women. When did Ijaw start weaving Akwete clothes and where did the women get it from?
Winny Harry, am Ijaw woman is your representation of an archived photo of an Igbo woman ? You call the first wrapper eregbo which translates to Woman Ere-woman Gbo - Person. A woman of age. You don't deal on Propaganda but na Ijaw women be your History.

Double wrapper originated in Igbo land and has its own names in the Igbo language. It is a traditional attire worn by Igbo women and it isn’t called Asoebi.

AKWETE 😍 Royalty in every weave. Write about it. Talk about it. Post about it. Buy and wear it with pride and keep it in everyone's faces, reminding them where it came from, before those wikimedia touts change its cultural origins to confuse those who rely on search engines to access history. #Igboamaka 😍💪
Akwete cloth is a hand woven textile produced in Igboland from the town of Akwete and Ndoki, both in Abia state. Akwete is a decorative cloth with complex weave designs, creating intricate geometric patterns, made with many vibrant colors. Traditionally, Akwete cloth is woven in pairs and was commonly worn by Igbo women as a wrap-around skirt, known as a wrapper, paired with a lightweight machine-made blouse. Today, Akwete fabric has more modern applications and can be worn by both men and women. Buy #MadeInAbia today Ndewonu!

Dear @abikedabiri my sister. This is the first time I’m having to engage you on social media and for a very disturbing reason. The post you just made of Dr. Bolu Ogunyemi is no doubt worthy of commendation, because Bolu is a brilliant mind, but this event took place in 2024. What happened to the more recent praise-worthy and commendable achievement by pharmacist, Chika Onochie who has just won CAD$100,000 research award for his groundbreaking male fertility study in the same Canada? You know as much as I do that a lot of people have concluded you’re unashamedly tribalistic, especially in the way you discharge your duties. I’ve never gotten involved in that conversation about you. But the moment I saw this post, my alarm bells went off. Could it be that, rather than post about this milestone by an Igbo boy which literally just happened and has been widely reported in the media, you went all the way back to 2024 to pull a Yoruba-centric milestone by Dr. Bolu? That’s flat out tribalism! You’re neither a content creator nor a social media activist. You are a public servant taxed with ensuring the wellbeing and unity of Nigerians in diaspora, not Yorubas in diaspora - through the Nigerians in Diaspora Organization. To see something like this from you has further buttressed my long held notion that this administration’s nepotism is extremely infectious and unlike anything we’ve seen since the life of this nation. And this is what happens when it trickles down from the top. Honestly, this is very regrettable and I think you should apologize and retrace your steps.

You guys should learn to mind your business in this country, wtf is all these? Mgbe obula unu ana ewetara onwe unu mkpali. Oginidi? Obodo unu dikwa ka obodo ndi ara oo, sọ sọ ogwu ka unu na- acho mgbe obula. Unu chupucha ndi unu na ha kari ikwu kedu onye unu na ha ga akwu? Tf?
But on a serious note, why does Edo State look so bad? Even the capital, Benin—why are they far behind their sister state Delta? Not just the roads; everything about that city appears so backward and disorganized. Are there fine places in Edo/Benin?

When did coset designed blouses, puffed sleeves and skirts suddenly become an exclusive yariba attire? What went wrong with these termites ever since Thiefnubu sneaked into Aso rock?

@Davidofogho yaribastard ewu, the book is not titled African woman. Leith Ross didn’t write one book alone about Igbo people. Try harder Ewu. Do a better job.
