A never ending argument, a
battle of two passionate cultures or a matter of taste and preferences. Call it
whatever. The age old debate between Ghanaians and Nigerians about their
respective ‘’jollof’’ has to come to an end at some point.
Legend has it that the
Wolof people of Senegal invented this meal, presumably because of it’s name. It
is made with rice, tomatoes, tomato paste sometimes with spices and vegetables.
It is accompanied by either meat, chicken, fish or eggs. Some even go the extra
mile of adding ‘’cole slaw’’. But if it’s original name was ‘’Wolof’’, can
Ghanaians and Nigerians stop the battle now and explain to us why the name
‘’Jollof’’?
Many tourists visit both
Ghana and Nigeria, and end up tasting both ‘’Jollofs’’. In the end, when you
ask which tastes better, you may not like what you hear. When in Accra, in
order to avoid Ghanaian trouble, they choose Ghana jollof. When in Lagos, you
dare not choose another.
