speaktome & the rest. You Igbos can lie sha, oya post some of your texts with these words not referring to Yoruba or bow your heads in shame. I can swear that you don't have a single word with any of these, the closest you can get is joining different words together. You Igbos that don't even have words for most day to day words like the Yoruba. now all of a sudden have Olabisi, Olanike, Olaniyi etc. If you Igbos say it's raining outside people need to actually go and check it to be sure.
