The famous jollof rice war between Nigeria and Ghana erupted again after a traveller shared a photo of a pack of 'jollof rice' served on a British Airways enroute to Ghana.
The Twitter user with the name @Joevarock sparked the debate after she posted photos of the jollof rice she received on a plane.
Both Nigerians and Ghanaians found the photo of the supposed jollof rice hilarious as many couldn't tell if that was indeed jollof rice.
Some Twitter users tackled the spelling of the 'jollof rice' indicated on the pack of food.
With some Nigerians comparing the photo of the food to the colours of the Ghana flag, Ghanaians on other hand denied such food was Ghana jollof.
Below are some of the tweets;

You were served the infamous Ghana Jollof Rice.

Nope... no Ghanaian would cook jollof like that . Must have been a Nigerian ????????????????

That's Jo-loff indeed. Joe loff! That's not Jollof in any way. And what is that green doing there? ????????????

Neither Nigerians, Ghanaians nor the Senegalese can recognize that insult to our ancestors.

It has the Ghana flag colors tho. But they failed to put black meat in the middle for the star.
