Mr macmillian, as much as 'knack' is an English word it is not in anyway connected to the word 'knack' in pidgin, i only used the word 'knock' as a reference due to its close connection to the usage of 'knack', moroever, 'knack' is not a word that is normally used in colloquial conversation, so logically, it is most likely not the root of the pidgin word 'knack'. I rest my case.
Talking to that dude is like talking to a brick wall. Na everyone wan claim Yoruba just to disqualify Yoruba. So pathetic.

And where did you look?

It's funny how non-Yorubas now know what is and what is not a Yoruba word. It's like you guys are just realizing how Yorubas have colonized pidgin English and trying to deny it lmao grin.

And dude, Yorubas are always evolving and making up words that later becomes popular; skelewu, skibobo, badoo, shakitibobo. 50years from now, una go claim these words.

Thank goodness for oil shortage, now our governors are thinking straight.


[size=18pt]Nigerian State Partners Chinese Firm On Cocoa Production[/size]

The southwest Nigeria's state of Osun on Thursday said it has partner a Chinese firm to transform the state into hub of cocoa production.

State governor Rauf Aregbesola made the remarks in Ede town during a facility tour of the resuscitated Cocoa Production Industry in partnership with Chinese Company, Golden Monkey of China.

He said the state would soon become the hub of cocoa production in Nigeria with the revival of the moribund Osun Cocoa Production Industry.

The partnership between Osun Government and the Chinese Company to revive the cocoa production after 15 years is based on 70 and 30 percent equity respectively.

Aregbesola said the present production capacity of 20,000 metric tonnes per day was a good development when compared to its 5,000 metric tonnes capacity per day in 2001, after which it was abandoned.

The governor said the cocoa industry would go a long way to support the state's agricultural plan to develop cocoa farming in the state.

He commended the partnering company for its commitment to the contractual agreement by hitting the ground running.

Earlier in her remarks, Song Lin, the Assistant General Manager of Skyrun Cocoa Production Industry, said the management had increased the production capacity of the industry four times.

She said the company was presently producing cocoa liquid and soon, the organization would be producing cocoa powder and cake.

my brother, dont be emotional.
Igbos also laugh at yoruba name with NIKE and NIYI, because of their funny meaning in Igbo langauge.

As for now it has been established that yeye is from Igbo word EYIYE, which means silliness or stupidity.
henryhemon:
Dude you 've no shame you turn even joke to tribalism,use common sense no tribe is better than another cuz we 've no hand in our creation but crazy people like you think they're a better specie cuz you found yourself in a locality,grow up.
It's okay if the Igbos want to claim a language that's phonetically better than Igbo, but just know the root of the language you want to steal.

i know the meaning of the name, I used the name to explain the origin of Yeye.

I have some knowledge in yoruba so I know what I am saying.

As I said Yeye is an Igbo word from eyiye 'silliness', that is why an average Igbo person laugh at the hearing of the name AdeYEYE.
Eyiye ko, Eniye ni. Even the tone marks are in Yoruba.
