Culture

Culture is just like a way of life of a particular people in a particular society. Each culture is unique everywhere you go. Culture is just like the way a particular people dress, the way they speak, the way they greet, the kind of work they do in most scenarios, the way the worship, who they worship etc. I come from the western part of Africa, Nigeria to be precise and we have differnent cultures and traditions in different states. Nigeria is known as the giant of Africa and it is made up of thirty six states and a Federal capital territory, which comprises of seven hundred and seventy four local government areas. This states are spread into six geopolitical zones which are the South south (which comprises of Akwa-ibom state, Bayelsa, Cross Rivers state, Rivers state, Delta and Edo state), South east (which comprises of  Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo States), South west (which comprises of Lagos, Ekiti, Ondo, Osun, Oyo, Ogun), North east (which comprises of Adamawa, Bauchi,  Borno, Gombe, Taraba, and YobeStates), North west (which comprises of Jigawa, Kaduna, Kano, Kastina, Kebbi, Sokoto and Zamfara states) and North central (which comprises of Benue, Kogi, Kwara, Nasarawa, Niger, Plateau and the federal capital territory) which has the federal capital territory, Abuja. With three major tribes which are the Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa which is found in the eastern, western and northern part of Nigeria respectively. These three tribes have different cultures ie, the way they speak is different, their mode of dressing is different, the food they eat is different, the way they greet their elders is different. I come from the southern part of Nigeria, Akwa-ibom state (which comprises of 31 local government areas), and i'm from the Annang tribe, which is one of the different tribes in Akwa-ibom state. We have our traditional meals, traditional clothings, language etc. One of our major traditional meals is Edikan-ikong soup, which is prepared using vegetable leafs. Sometimes, it may be hard to differentiate us from the Ibibio tribe in Akwa-ibom, which has the majority of local governments in the state.
