Ignored,totally

My Momsie speaks Hausa, Igbo & Yoruba fluently and she cursed fluently in those languages as well, while she beat the living daylight from your poor soul.

And it hurt me the most whenever she switched to Hausa & Yoruba while beating me, because I won't understand what she was saying, but I just knew they were curses.

Sometimes her Hausa & Yoruba friends would scream and cautioned her not to say such things to her kids.

But I learnt these English words from her "scallywag!" "sadist"

"If you were born during the slave trade, I would have sold you and use the money to solve better problem!"

"Onwu! Death!"

"Isi Ebuka!" "Coconut Head!" "Ewu Can Beer!" "Tulutulu!" "Monkey" "Zombie!"

But we are best of friends now. She now cries whenever she prays for me & whenever she receives a mighty alert from me! LOL!
