Don't you think it might be a dialectical version of 'Mbakwe' which means 'if the town permits'?
I know someone bearing Mbakwe as surname, so this is the meaning!!
Nawaoo!!

Yea. Most Nigerians are bilingual in their native + English languages, and occassionaly trilingual. I am bilingual in Igbo and English. Speaking another language can be fun especially at those times you want to communicate privately and seamlessly. English-only speakers can attest to this smiley

I don't think she was talking to you bro, I think she meant that message for herself. She said she would not hit on you meaning indirectly she likes you, then she randomly quoted herself and said don't mail me.
