Gazettengr.com was where the news of supposedly Tinubu's gaffee emanatted from before been spread like wildfire by people who only takes pleasure in making mockery of the APC presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu. According to their report, it reads "Yahoo boys’ in local parlance means internet fraudsters but The Gazette could not immediately find the meaning of the terminology gazelle gagaraga, despite searches in major dictionaries and thesaurus." The news here: https://www.nairaland.com/7511552/gazelle-gagaraga-tinubu-suffers-gaffe But what Gazettengr failed to understand is that there is no stated rules or law that you must communicate with words from 'major dictionaries or thesaurus' in political rallies. The meaning of gazelle gagaraga There is what we call gara gara in yoruba. It means unstable or unsettled. Same as the pidgin slang 'gragra' . We also have the word gagara (ga-ga-ra) or gagaraga (gaga-raga) used by Tinubu which means boastful, pompous, inflated, proud, made, self-important, domineering, pendantic, or magniloquence. The south-westerners can relate; the yorubas to be specific. There is a street word: Igara (I-gara) which is derive from or shortform of gagara or gagaraga it also means boastful, inflated, proud etc. (as aforementioned) We normally use it like 'Igara chicken': Which translate to boastful empty chicken which is only covered by plenty feathers. Or 'Igara iceblock' which means boastful or proud iceblock which will only end up as water. These words are local street words or slangs. Gazelle A gazelle is one of many antelope species in the genus Gazella. With a horn, Gazelles are known as swift animals. when we use the word gazelle to refer to person or group of people. It means Proud person, something that dont stay one place easily, something that changes location swiftly. Reason why when we say someone is growing gazelle horn ' it means the person is becoming proud" So Tinubu saying he is going to “turn so called yahoo yahoo boys into in manufacturing and creation of than being gazelle gagaraga.” Means he is going to change them from a boastful proud unsettled yahoo-yahoo boys to a product manufacturer and an intelligent creator. Living and learning, dont be always quick to criticise or make fun of what you dont know. 163 Likes 24 Shares

Thanksful: Dont be stupid. I am trying to cure you of your ignorance. To pull you out of the sea of stupidity. Dont criticise what you have zero idea about. Gazelle gagaraga is very correct. It exists. Same as gagaraga. I am a Yoruba. I grew up in Lag. Even if i spent most of life as a northerner. Gaga( in high tone) then raga (in low tone) O nse gagaraga kiri... This means he is behaving unstable. Not really insane. But not quite settled . If you say: " O nse Ara gaga-raga kiri. It is used to insult or throw jab at a slim person of skeleton structure walking around without clothe. It means walking around with skeleton-like body without shame. 121 Likes 27 Shares |

This your damage control no go work. Any how you like twist it, it still remains jargon. It is very unfortunate that your likes are selling a demented octogenarian to Nigerians to elect him as president with the sole aim of fulfilling your selfish, ethnic and religious ambitions.

lhordspy: Absolutely brilliant. People Gazette is a trashy platform for fake news and bigots. Since Kperogii disgraced himself the time he could not understand how brilliant Asiwaju is, he has since learnt to keep silent and think deeply to comprehend Asiwaju Tinubu.

There they come as usual, What sort of presidency does Tinubu want to have if he becomes president? A continuation of Buhari? Well, he may not be as lucky as Buhari as been.https://www.farooqkperogi.com/2022/10/why-is-bola-tinubu-hiding-in-london.html?m=1" Given these serial gaffes, it has become typical for a barrage of commentators to take up the job of explaining to the public what Tinubu really means when he uses what they describe as idioms, proverbs, and metaphors.... "TINUBU PRESIDENCY: AFFLICTION SHALL NOT RISE A SECOND TIME" -ABIMBOLA ADELAKUN. https://punchng.com/tinubus-presidency-affliction-must-not-rise-a-second-time/ Being a Tinubu zombie is not easy o. No wonder Festus Keyamo said "All Tinubu supporters are always acting stupid/foolish." God forbid I act or appear stupid/foolish because of a microphone head licking heroine-drug crackhead addict. 106 Likes 5 Shares |

Why didn't you explain to us why Tinubu was licking a microphone? Is that part of Yoruba culture too? Try and explain the meaning of the following -"God bless PDAPC." -"Four hundred bags barrels of oil" -"Go and collect your APV, APC & vote." -"A townhall meeting is different from Babablu Bluublu bulabu. -"A dead fish cannot be sweet in any soup." -"Broom! broom!! broom!!! brooooommm." -"BUHARRI BUHARRI...Say it again BUHARRI" -"A father of a child is mother of the father whose child is the father." -"Turning the rotten situation of the state to a bad one." -"The deputy senate president...will be the governor of Niger Delta state.” 239 Likes 18 Shares |
