Actually the origin of jollof is from Senegal... The dish is from the Wollof tribe... They cook the rice and vegetables which we have copied and changed it a bit..
This is not true. It is a false Narrative, repeated over and over again so much that it is almost becoming a truth. Senegal and the Gambia have a language called wollof which phonetically sounds like a jollof. This is how and the only reason Senegal and the Gambia got sucked into the jollof conversation. Jollof did not originate from Senegal.
@@bowgate3817see the confidence with which you're embarrassing yourself 🙄. There's actually a jolof empire/kingdom, which's another name for the Wolof empire. Jollof rice originated from them. Ghana we can't claim this one, like we like to do for other stuff. Like some of us claiming we named Jamaica that it actually means ja ma yaka in twi, etc etc. lots of ridiculous anecdotal bullsh.t Yes we may have been cooking this one dish rice in stew (jollof) meal before the Senegambians popularized it, as some claim, BUT THAT it's a staple in their climes and the name originates from them, they own it. You know our makola, original is mokola in Ibadan, susu, paano, alata samina, asopaate(slippers), azumah nelson, braima kamoko(bukum banku), nuhu sharabutu(chief imam) etc don't have 'original' Ghanaian origin?
@bowgate3817 It is originally from Senegambia. Rice is not indigenous to Ghana. Senegambians have ben making various rice dishes for centuries. They even brought the cultivation to the Americas.
I'm surprise the host being a Ghanaian didn't correct the lady that what she's saying is not a Ghanaian culture or tradition! There is no where in Ghana people shake dead people's hand!
I think how everybody will be greeting in the funeral grounds not necessarily the dead body but cuz she can’t explain it better that’s how I understand it
@@kwasimorgan8162 that was not what she meant because there's no where in the world where people don't greet other people during funeral, even among Muslims they do! She was emphatic that people were greeting the dead body! It's not true!
She said, "Honestly, it was good. She did not encounter any problem looking for an apartment. It was all good"
She's beautiful.
I really agree with what she said jollorf originally comes from Senegal
Lovely lady 😍
Great conversation
👍👍👍👍
Jellof originated from Senegal and the Gambia so I believe she’s telling the truth. Plus Senegal are among some of the best testing foods in Africa.

@@paakwegyir3165but that's exactly what Bridget is saying 🙄
Phrase, it is about time you bought a good clip on Mike for your interviews.
Great conversation 🙏
Even me as a Ghanaian I have never seen people greeting or shaking a dead person’s hand. This is new or people are going OTT.
She meant "on contrary"
Watching from London
If she spoke solely her language to you, and you to her, how can you understand each other?
This epic guy he's not too br.ight. I cringe watching his videos, but he's out there genuinely promoting Ghana and giving us good content 😔
I'm Nigerian but the guy is not wrong! he just wanted her to be conscious of tha.
Waow yes chebugyen is far better than jollof because I have lived in Senegal 🇸🇳 before relocated to Germany 🇩🇪,I really really miss that food
Jollof come from the wolof people of Senegal and the Gambia.

Intelligent woman
A lot of malians are living in Ghana. Most of them are undocumented and claimed to be Ghanaian.

Nzulezu people have their origin from Mali..
