Ijebu men are too stubborn angry
Re: Where Are My Ijebu People ? by SisiKill1: 8:32am On Nov 06, 2009
If we can't find any Ijebus in the house, I suggest we recruit people and train them to be Ijebu. It doesn't take much, all you gotta do is know how

1. To throw a good party,
2. Be Haughty
3. Add FOUR and NINE after every other word.

For instance

Kon FOUR joko NINE
Shem FOUR ka jeun NINE

The first Ijebu sentence I learnt was [i]Iye mi o we mi o, me je o tu. [/i]Loosely translated - My mom tied it for me, don't let it come loose.

Mom taught us that when we went for our great grandmother's burial. She didn't want people touching our heads. . . Naija people and paranoia sha.

Anyway, in my opinion of all the Yoruba dialects. . .Ijebu is the sweetest sounding. So musical!! kiss kiss

Its a shame on those saying we are wicked and stupid. The whole world is wicked stubborn and stingy, if not, let there be equal share of belongings.

thank u so much. some people just open their mouth and say nonsense.IJEBU 4 LIFE.
Re: Where Are My Ijebu People ? by olabowale(m): 2:37am On Nov 21, 2009
ojude oba is probably Sunday of next week, if ileya is Friday because arafat is thursday! the last ojude oba i saw alatishe was the balogun. i love ijebu people. the things i dont like are the watery egusi stew, more light soup than stew, the ogiri jebu and if ikokore is not thick, count me out.

e maa wulee.

i intend to settle back home within ijebu people. maybe ejinrin or some of the osa/atlantic water frontage property. inshaAllah.
