Walahi, na real wahala be dat o....orie foka sile..scatter finish, nah who go pack am...so u bin leave da other passengers dem comot...chei, na real palava be dat o

This ya palava e get as e be. But me I for advice you next time not to comot from motor like that. You for ask driver first which person the music dey refer to. If he say no be you, then you know say trouble no dey. But if he say na you, abeg no wait for am to stop. Jump out of the motor fiam as e dey rush dey go.

Na my advice for you be that. Make you no allow ori e k'o 4ka sile.

Chei mallam, sorry oo about this ya palava. You too funny.

Next time, if you hear funny Yoruba words make you just jump from the bus as Mikky jaga said! Make you no even wait for bus to stop.

Me self I don suffer for this Lagos. Last week I dey for Lagos International Airport. I dey mind my own business dey read one book wey dey sweet me well well. Come see one Yoruba woman just come behind me like that and she said something like “Ah, o dara bi iwe lo iwe daa”.

Chei, Chineke God! I come run away from there like mad person. Me I no know Yoruba. But “Iwe” in Igbo be anger and when I hear the woman say “iwe” two times for one sentence, I ran. The way I ran self police even think say I thief something.

Even now, I never find Yoruba person wey go translate for English wetin the woman dey talk.

Sorry, mallam.

Agens,

Nor be wey I say make I fisit NVS, naim I come see the title of a new palaver.

Naim I come decide to quick quick click on the thread, to read and study the palaver. To find out whether na small palaver, abee na heavy duty palaver, wey I go need to carry go worship mountain for divine insight, understanding and wisdom. B/4 I go come balance back, much much later, to come deliver the ogbonge solution, wey go dismantle the problem; or help others wey dey face similar palaver.

Nor be eem, I come seeam say, na you Agens dey exhale.

Well, no wahala at all.

MEANWHILE: Make I let you know weteen my people talk about your type of scenario:

My people talk say: Person wey nor go school, wey him hear say person wey go school, don speak oyinbo so tay, and after come add say "who are you". Naim be say: dem don talk say, make him wey nor go school, go ready properly for fight.

As you hear "Who are you music" Ee good as you Ben Johnson, my dear brother
