E se. It's very interesting o. I've consulted several sources about the matter and they all come up with different words. O ye mi o. Not that I've ever used the word personally.

Nothing really comes to mind, but what root exactly does ìdàn have?

What does "so hapo na ta chingum" mean?
Re: Nairaland Official Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba Dictionary by Nobody: 6:07pm On Mar 06, 2015
NwanyiDelta9:
What does "so hapo na ta chingum" mean?

Is 'so hapo' a miswriting of 'so ha abuo'? If it is, the sentence most probably means: "Only the two of them are chewing gum."

*Awodi jeun epe san'ra --indeed our leaders r awodis

*Ewo ni ki a fini je oye AWODI ki a ma le gbe adie --our leaders r really stealing our resources

*Ai le w’oju Awodi l’oje k’Aladie so o di Oosa –many Nigerians r just too patient. We don't take necessary steps to fight 4 our ryts

*‘Awodi nfo ferere, o l’ohun fe m’Oluwa. Ibi ti
yio fo de ko ye mi o, o fe s’eleya ni’ (Juju
musician General-Prince Adekunle).....,our leaders continue looting no matter d level of their achievements... overambitious

Awodi re ibara, won se bi eye ku .... many wld left us in this country for years. And we ll believe they av settled abroad finally..... After they av made enough jibiti money, they come bk home to acquire power, name and more wealth in the name of politics........

Yoruba!. Nigerian leaders !
