“Ewa” means beans in Yoruba language while “Agoyin” is a term used to describe people from neighbouring countries such as Benin republic “Cotonu” and Togo, who came into Nigeria to settle as far back as in the 60’s, hence the name Ewa Agoyin which simply translates as “Beans of the Agoyin people”. Ewa Agoyin is usually eaten with bread, plantain, yam or garri but mostly with "Agege bread". It is quite easy to find Ewa Agoyin sellers o the streets of Lagos carrying their iron pots on their heads chanting "Elewa ti de o" which can be translated to "beans seller has arrived'.
