Doti/Dirtin Dirty.
Oja/Igbaja is known as a baby carrier, use to hold baby at the back is frm bini OZA

absoluteSuccess:


How do you establish who borrow from where?

You have a 'default tokunbo orientation'.

Akuko nd coc.k sound alike because both brits and Yoruba adopted onomatopoeic

kukadodo.

Papa is yoruba for grassland, why not papa meaning the same thing in both languges?

baba is father, so you can argue that baba is from father.

Both languages share homophone for dirty.

Did Yoruba learn of dirty from england.

macof:



I can't believe you didn't applaud the op. isn't this what you and metaphysic do?

every Yoruba word that sounds like a word of Afroasiatic languages must point to yoruba origin from the middle-east


why doesn't Akuko = Ccock and Baba = Papa not mean that Yoruba had footprint in the British Isles?


you are also guilty of the "tokunbo orientation" you accuse chowlade of. examine urself first

absoluteSuccess:


Hello macof,

Happy new year.

Hope the going is good with you?

Wishing you all the best that the year can offer.

Stay blessed.

macof:


Ase.
Thank you.

however , I'm interested to know, why are you dodging?


if the yoruba word "Ebora" comes from "Deborah" as you said, why can't "Akuko" come from "Ccock"?

macof:

tpiar:



Roman footprint perhaps?

Or maybe after.

To carry strong feelings like this for another man across the year means something.


It revealed something about your persona.


I'm happy for you. When you place my extreme imaginable beside your imaginable @ the bolded, what did you conclude on?


Sorrow blood and death.


A fool was actually using woman dp and sex to lure me to Akure on whatsapps.

Why not slit my throat online?

If not conforming to your opinions makes me st.upid: you forgot to seize the opportunity to share your pristine knowledge?


Mockery is knowledge.


You are still echoing my frames, the frame from a stupi.d person has pinned on your mind. Why not the foolproof of your knowledge?


Which of your personally conceived 'trademark knowledge' has stuck on anyone so far? But my stupidit.y stuck on you.


You can only scare fools with death and ridicules. Keep making me part of your problem you don't want to see again with gunshot.

I will always be here to be a big issue in your lives from sunrise to sunrise.

Awon eni buburu pelu ipinnu ibi won lojogbogbo.

. when will you ever grow up and act ur adult age? all this whining for what?
eni buburu? eni alaroka? all that insult yet I didn't see answers to my question

this isn't a conspiracy against u, and u are nt even a part of my life why should you be a problem in it? damn! this is a faceless forum ejo.

btw wat has Akure and ur WhatsApp contacts got to do with this?

absoluteSuccess:


Killers of Cynthia met her on a faceless forum, already a threat to life has been made by your clique.

And you have dropped an alibi in the bolded, and in the past conversations of your ease for human sacrifice on a thread.

These are forensic enough, and you don't know the level of culpability you are init.

You can be traced, so don't deceive yourself. I know your spies

This is also filed.

As to your question on what the Akure girl has to do with it, that's your bait to obtain and verify the picture of who is to be shot.
