You didn’t tell one lie

Another thing is our appreciation game, do something for a Yoruba person and you’ve basically subscribed to a lifetime of gratitude. Even if they see you next after ten years, they’ll still hit you with a heartfelt “eseun ojosi.” 😂

I’m Ibo.. that part about greeting shocked me..I would say good evening or good morning to my babes mum without bending a knee or kneeling.. which I didn’t know was compulsory…I always got stern looks.. when I started kneeling to greet I became her favorite .. that day I realized they took greetings very personal

Dami, if I enter you with what you said about those proverbs ehn...

But you're a fine boy, and your memes passed the vibe check, so I'll let you off this time.

I am Yoruba too and our loudness is really irritating. I hate when my mum is chastising me in the road because her voice is f*cking loud and everyone will focus on me and fun fact: I inherited her loud voice. God!!!

I cannot stop laughing 🤣. This has brought so much memories and to think about the noise and insult you heard in Bidija Market, Ibadan, those days.

You price Okra for instance. Rather than the mama saying no, you hear things like, oloshi, mo lo ji ni, oni ranu, Jo wa bomi lo, ko Kuro ni waju mi.....to think about it now, my response can only be haaaaaaaaaaa, kilode mama, kini mose...🤣🤣🤣🤣

I think I will write on Akwa Ibom people, my people. I use to know a woman. Whenever she's angry with any of her kids, her scolding is usually lyrical and in rapping. You will laugh and roll on the floor if you understand her, or it it my mom?
