It is not in our nature to be touts and thugs that's why we don't have Igbo name for them. 1 Like |

kettykings:I tell you. We have Akara and also Akanmu (Pap) note the Aka prefix in both Igbo words. The Yoruba version of Pap is Ogi. The same way one clown was dragging Ogbono before he was corrected by a fellow Yoruba is same way these ones will drag Akara, Egwusi, Oyibo and Oga. Now ask them to tell you the meaning of the above names in Yoruba and they will begin to blab. 1 Like |

PVision2020:Have you ever asked yourself how Ajayi Crowther learnt Igbo? Igbo freed slaves in freetown Sierra Leone taught Ajayi Crowther and the fact was that, he wasn't the main producer of igbo primer but two other Igbo missionaries thar arrived with him. Egusi is never debatable though. 1 Like |

kettykings:Oyibo in that Obodo Oyibo settles it. Obodo Oyibo - Land of the white man. Olaudah Equiano was the first to mention the word Oyibo in his book where he explained what the White man was called in his his part of Igboland. More example: The foreign item 1. Aki Oyibo - Coconut The local derivative. 1. Aki Igbo - Palm Kernel 1. Aki Hausa - Gworo/Hausa Kolanut 2. Okuko Oyibo - Agric Foul The local derivative 2. Okuko Igbo - Native Foul |

The real meaning of Agbero is Bus conductor... But because of their daily troubles at the park, people generalised them as tout. Well, almost every tribe have a copy language, so there shouldn't be issues on that |

PVision2020: Okwuru is an Igbo word, borrowed from the Igbo lexicon by even the English and now called "Okra" by every other person. Egusi is also a staple Igbo soup adopted and loved by other African non-Igbos, all the way to Europe, USA, same goes for Ogbono unlike ewedu that is yoruba owned and not even popular among other nigerians. The word "Unu/Una" used in pidgin and creole English in Nigeria, West Africa and all the way to the Carribeans and West Indies is of Igbo origin. There are many more like Akamu (Pap), Aka gum (Stingy hand) etc all Igbo word adopted as national words/slangs. Stop lying to yourself Mr yoruba man. 1 Like |

AfriBreakinNews: Very simple question with very easy answer. The average Yoruba guy or lady behaves like an Agbero tout, so Igbos liken any Igbo person who behaves in a similar manner, as an Agbero, another way of saying this our brother is behaving like a Yoruba person. 1 Like 1 Share |
