I am a Nigerian from the Igbo tribe in Imo state, orlu to be precise and the Igbos have different culture heritage but for this presentation we're going to focus on food. We have different kinds of food like Ugwa, Ugba, akidi, and so many soups like the egwusi, ologbu, oha, achi, Ede,nsala, ogbomo, ede, ofe Owerri, ukazi, ofe ogwu e.t.c and we also celebrate the new yam festival

Personal

growth

Igbos are business oriented and industrious; this makes it easy to take risks, dive into businesses, fail and start afresh because of the never-giving up spirit in Igbos.


i have done courses and learnt skills that I have started putting to work and this has helped me grow in character, economically and otherwise.

The future

I'm growing and learning and I would definitely put to work all I have learnt and would still learn into my business and life.


My great cultural heritage is one of the many things that would leave long and my legacy would be felt in this generation and those yet unborn.
