all i see is yoruba slaves promoting islamic culture but its understandable since you were conqured by the fulani  

Is that so?
Same "Islamic" culture that is modernly spreading amongst  the SE'ners. Should the SW, 50% Islamic take offense to all these arabs this and that?
Just celebrate.

@lagcity,

To back up what @ezeagu is stating, if you remember the "Achaemenid or the Old Persian Empire" and how it spanned into three continents; Asia, Africa and Europe. This was how Islam was rapidly introduced to the world and Africa.

Thought you had no time to waste?
This thread just brings it out in ppl.

1. This is not worn by any Islamic nation, apart from the yorubas
2. This is not a bini influence
3. This is a MODERN Yoruba traditional attire

You don't see me going back and forth, do you?  

Like I previously stated, I'm observing but I'll like to correct a few things here which I did, Islam conquest started way back and came into Africa. From the Persian Empire (modern day IRAN) to the Arab Empire which further expanded Islam.

Why should we talk about Lagos?

I dont understand why they wish to see it as a conquer.

Just cultures mixing, peeps. It happens with close contact.

He's more than welcome, unless if I'm confused on my History, then I stand to be corrected.

If you read accounts of the Persian/Islamic Empire, they wore beads, they wore this big clothes you guys wore, in fact look at the Indian empire (where Islam was introduce as part of Asia), they are the kingdom of beads, necklace, lace, most of the wears u see today.

ijaw and ogoni are different ethnic groups slowpoke, maybe we should take alook at poverty statistics and see who is idle in nigeria.

you mean the igbo invasion of lagos? am still waiting for your reply, what exactly is yoruba about that outfit is it the lace material, trouser, gown or the femal attire?

My point is that it was modernized, SW Nigerian modernized it because they probably learned it from the Islamic culture they are associated with, but almost all Arab/Islam nations wear the same thing. Although, they might look different or whatever, but it's dated way back to the6th century.

May God save us all.
It's now obvious that some Yoruba are way too unexposed. Please travel, go to other places and see other people. Don't just lock yourself in your kitchen in the SW and think the world revolves around you.

So Ichafu is what this village girl, Ileke, is telling me is Yoruba. Gele my a.s.s.
Go to any church in Igboland, the innermost village and see it for yourself. Woman in Igboland rarely walk around without Ichafu.

Igbo invasion of Lagos? Nah, I'm talking about how the "conquerer" is being modernly "conquered", according to your logic.
As for Lagos invsion, leave that for another thread

nairalander can someone help ileki idi and point out what is yoruba about this attire. is it the lace material that we dont even produce or the trouser or the gown  

I'll claim somebody else's culture and claim I influenced others. "Swagger".

What I'm trying to say is most wear which you say it's "Yoruba" wears and Igbos are known for wearing them, unless I misunderstood, you're literally laying claims to something that has been in existence for God knows how long. I will give you the credit for the swag modern culture look, but believe me, most of your wear has an ancient history tied to it.

You call it Ichafu, we call it Gele.
But the name is not what the discussion is about.

I'd like to know who invented the flamboyancy of the gele/head tie/ Ichafu.

@ Ezeagu

In 1830, the equivalent of a GAP store in iboland would have been a rafia palm.

Are you talking about the agbada?
Agbada is worn in Islamic regions, but the Yoruba styles are different from other regions.
Specially made for our OWANBE.
Or what are you trying to say?

Who said gele was a Yoruba invention?
Are you dumb or just acting? Quote precisely where ileke-idi supposedly claim that head scarf was invented by Yorubas.
