Jollof rice is good but it's not the best thing Naija ever created

I said what I said. Jollof is overhyped. The way we fight over it online, you would think it cures malaria. Meanwhile a simple plate of pounded yam and egusi soup has been carrying this country for generations and nobody gives it its flowers.

Let me break it down. Jollof is a party food. You eat it at weddings, you eat it at owambe, you eat it when you don't have time to cook. But pounded yam? That is a commitment. You pound it, you swallow it, you feel it in your chest. That is food with substance. Jollof is just rice with pepper, technically.

Before una start dragging me, I know the Ghana vs Naija jollof debate is the real entertainment. But let's be honest, if jollof was that powerful, we wouldn't need to add fried plantain and chicken to make it complete. Pounded yam stands alone. The data suggests pounded yam is the true king. Which side are you on?
