About Alago
Alago, or Idoma Nokwu, is an Idomoid language spoken by the Sub-Saharan peoples of Nigeria. The Alago people were originally one with the Idoma people of modern-day Benue state in Nigeria. However, the Alago people are believed to have broken up with their Idoma counterpart around 1200 AD.
Alago people are an agrarian group who grow most of the food they eat. These include egusi, yam, guinea corn, maize, and millet grain. Popular meals eaten by the alago include ona-g'ishi (pounded yam) and ona-g'iye which are eaten with soups like Owo'oho and Okeshe.
Alago appeared on Dragons' Den UK (Series 8, Episode 10) in 2010.
