* The bottom of a fowl has just been blown wide open(Chiwetalu Agu)

* Otti-to ama ona(Chiwetalu Agu)

There was this one my granny used to tell us , don't remember it verbatim but you can get the idea

If you beat a chief lightly you pay 1500 cowries , if you beat a chief greatly you still pay 1500 cowries , so beat him as if you want to kill him and pay your 1500 cowries.

You don't scare a prostitute with a big peniss (Nigeria). It is the Vagiina outside the house that protects the Vagiina inside the house (Abriba)..meaning that if you frequents ur wife vagiina,it might get distorted.so to avoid it,you also visit ur GFs just to preserve ånd protect ur wife's puna.
