will take you to the farm today Alright You can walk along with me To the farm And what is this thing Oh this is a potato pumpkin We plant them and they bring us vegetables The vegetables that we eat But this is the result of it It's heavy Yes it's very very heavy What's inside We cut like this We bring the seed inside The seed inside is what we plant And after some months you will bring the leaf Oh you can see You can see the leaf You can see the seed Very very nice very beautiful Then we plant it about five five in the pit This is the seed of the vegetable As a village farmer For flattened yam We call it flattened yam This is a vegetable seed This is the seed of the vegetable When we plant we bring the leaf You can see You can see the leaf This is how the seed or the leaf will look like So you eat this Yes we eat this We use it to cook Rikang soup Rikang soup Yes we cook with it Rikang Okay so it comes from this This is the fruit The seed inside is what we plant that will produce this very one At the given time by the grace of God God is so much helping us This is how we used to Do farming in the village A farmer like me I've been farming since I returned from Lagos When I came back I decided to do farm work And I produced food We produced food Some good items Some of the items that we produced is pruned pumpkin as you see Very very big one Very big one like this I think it's more than 10 kilograms If we want to sell this one we can sell it for that amount 10 000 or 15 000 Naira Naira That's about $20 Yes $20 of it Along the line you can see that side That side is Afang Farm Oh Afang Farm I was told when I came to Aquarium Bomb I must try Afang Afang This is Afang Farm At a certain time we buy the bamboo That is the achara In our language we call it achara Then we plant it and stand it up and tie a rope from top to bottom so that the Afang will get power to go up The time will come that all of them will be fooled That this bamboo will not be able to see it again It will be covered with the leaves of the Afang Oh so it will become like a Christmas tree Yes then we use it for cooking in a party or celebration Any kind of celebration we use the leaf to cook soup for people When we use it to cook soup e kind that we use to eat with it is gari and fu If you eat that one as a man or as a woman as a girl as a boy You will feel better in your body Your body will be okay So that is what we are doing in this place And this one this farm work we are doing Helping us people who don't have to do government work We do it so that we will have our way and this thing puts food on our table every day on our table So the leaf is very interesting You can touch it Can I remove a smell Yes you can I can give you one to smell but it is something else And I believe it doesn't get too much odor Does it not have a smell It doesn't have any smell but when we cook it as soup It will have a pleasant aroma and a fine fragrance that is what it will supply to us Can you cook it without because I saw in some restaurants they serve it with meat different kinds of meat Can you just cook this one without meat and have it with maybe fu or something It is impossible for me to cook soup without meat or fish Even if you are a poor farmer or a rich farmer whenever I want to cook something of this nature it is very interesting for the people of Akwa Ibu Then we have to use meat or fish And if we can use isam we use it to cook the soup So when you cook it you get the real taste If you happen to go to a hotel to eat this Afang soup you will spend a lot of money it can be two thousand five for a plate of Afang soup with fu or gari or whatever they are going to give you Yam we plant it even from this month of February then October we will bring the yam out Okay so why do you dig the yam holes like this And why did you put this stick The reason we put this stick is because we are not putting the yam right now We have been digging this pit for three months After three months We remove the stick then we put the yam The procedure is to give direction on where to insert the yam Yes where we will put the yam After some time we will remove some sand then we remove the stick When we remove the stick then we will fix the yam on the ground from there we take up the stick Alright How to make fu We talk about fu Come along with me When we talk about cassava cassava is the food we love so much Kwaibung Everyday people depend on it because from cassava we get the yam Then we talk of the tree that is called cassava You can look at it You can see it there That is what we call cassava Then inside there we bring out This is cassava also This one is very small but this one has grown a lot We use it to make fu Also we use it to make gare abacha For Igbo language there is someone they call it abacha For Igbo they use it But for here we call it harita igwa Map is ready And you eat the leaves of the cassava No nobody can eat the leaves Only this leaf belongs to animal like a goat or cow Wait In Congo they eat the leaves of cassava Some countries they eat the leaves of cassava But here it is only for the animals I believe that is how God made those So that they can eat this For this Kwaibung or Nigeria No human being can eat this kind of thing I am very happy You are welcome When we talk about something else let' s talk about something else Kukuyam Do you know anything about kuyam I have heard about it but I have never tasted it Let me show you what we call kuyam We also plant it every year At the end of the year December or November we dig the ground and we bring it This is what we call kuyam It is a very nice food We can use it like pandey yam We can use it with oil Or you can even pu e whole of this one inside fire Then after some 15 minutes to 20 minutes it will be done Then you use oil to eat this one It is very good If you go to a hotel and they make this one to be like Pandey Yam you can pay up to 2 500 or 2 000 I also see you have a lot of palm trees and conuts Coconut is there By the grace of God we can take it to drink we take it to chop Anything that we love It is a tree that God gave to us freely and he produced the seed and also along the line we can gather the seed and we sell it for some amount Money that can help the family grow also The conut tree also helps the family in putting food on our table because when we gather up to 200 pieces of A month or a day or a year you sell it at the amount of 70 70 Naira 100 Naira for one then you can gather up to 20 000 Okay and plantain Come with me When we talk about plantain plantain is another beautiful seed Plantain Another beautiful food that God gave to us Like this one we call it banana Oh that's not plantain This is banana Banana is very very beautiful It's a nourishing food for everyone who loves to eat When we eat it in Akwa Ibom everyone loves it in Akwa Ibom So we eat it Every time every day when it grows to the stage because this one is not up to the stage to eat but that big one as you see there see the big one or the bigges One that one is ready to eat Whoever loves to eat that one you can eat that one That is the idea This is the continuation of the Afang leaf This is the smallest one that has just come out from the ground Then along the line it will be like those ones that already have some big big thing to climb on it We talk about this thing Udara leaf that is Udara That tree That tree is called Udara leaf in our language What is it used for It's also a fruit wonderful fruit that so many people love to eat It's very good for the body When we talk about some leaf like this we call it the blood of Jesus This is very beautiful This is blood of Jesus When you boil it like tea then when it is hot it will change the water to red That is why we give it that name blood of Jesus It's very good It works on our body It can make somebody have enough blood in the system It can also help a person that contacts something like typhoid fever or malaria It can wash the system Of a human being and make it fine This is nice to see because I think I've seen it where I come from that people see it as a weed Nobody cares about it If somebody doesn't know the use of it they can just clear it and destroy it We just plant it I plant this one by myself as an international farmer An international farmer I plant all this by myself for us to make use of it Maybe before you leave a day will come when I will pick it and boil it so that you ca Have a taste of it The truth is the blood of Jesus because it works in the human being's system normally It cleanses the system So that is the work of that one This side is the land or the bush that we never start to do work on it Any moment from now by the grace of God as an international farmer I would love to clear All this place Then we plant what we call sweet yam or coa yam or water yam We get so many types of yam that we plant
