Farfalla:
I couldn't respond sooner. Pele.



I doubt that.
I think they just wanted this "native" feel to the name and 'Bantu' just seemed like a perfect fit. I mean, I don't know....



You're welcome.
And speaking of Zulu people, I had also heard about them way before meeting them. There was this song about Zulu warriors we'd sing as kids. I still remember it. My mum also sung the same song as a kid.



She had fans here and there but she never did it for me. I do like Sauti Sol though. Maybe it's because they don't sing these cliché Kenyan songs that usually sound like nursery school rhymes.



Interesting, because I read a lot of West African literature. Elechi Amadi, Chinua Achebe, Wole Soyinka, Ama Ata Aidoo, and Cyprian Ekwensi. We even did some of their books as literature set books. I also read Chimamanda's books but I still prefer the older novelists so far. Do you know that Soyinka's The Trials of Brother Jero has a Kiswahili version?


Aluta continua!!
**raises fist to join you in solidarity.



Sure they have beautiful names, but me, eh? It's their food I like.
As for their men, many women don't like them (for lots of good reasons), until you hear that he's the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi.

It is fine.

Hahaha that is quite possible though.

That is really cool. The Zulu Tribe is quite fascinating actually. I liked their warriors outfit though

Oh really? I had thought you'd vibe to her music. I'm surprised reading otherwise. Yeah Sauti Sol do good music. 😂😂😂😂😂See how you just finished your country's musicians.
Nursery school rhymes indeed.

Lol. Seems we swapped. I'm glad you read West African literature. The above names you mentioned, I have read their works. I love Chimamanda's books. She's GOOD. I get your point actually, those old novelists made one travel in time with their books.

Oh really? What is the Kenyan version of "The Trials of Brother Jero".

Tiri gbosa for joining the fists in solidarity.

How's their food like? Spicy? Sweet? Creamy? And what is your favourite Arabian food.

Yeahhhhhhhh. The way many women don't like them for lots of good reasons is the same way I don't like them. Except the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, of course.

All na abroad.

Nazgul:
What brand of smartwatch is this?

I won't mind buying it cos I really need something that would motivate me to exercise.

This is an Oraimo smart watch.

Yes, it is a good motivator for exercise.

Gbadugbakun:
Do you know what 7km is?

I know what 7km is. The smart watch isn't lying.

AfDapone:
How come you come senior me for trekking?

Lol. I like walking, with music as my companion.

Nazgul:
We sacrificed this match for our final against mancity.

The coach used it to test the kind of formation he'll use against city...on a good day you and I know that crystal Palace is no match for us.

Story story? Story.

Once upon a time? Time time.

It is well with Manyoo.

Yampotatocarrot:
Lol, Olorun mi o ... Looool

But I nor lie na.

If not for the fact that Nottingham Forest and Everton are inconsistent, Manure Utd is supposed to be fighting for relegation.

Murphyericho:
Manuted to win ooo I don put my 200k...for winning. Pray for me guys

Why you nor stake 500k?

Crystal Palace dey wipe Manyoo with Oraimo cord tonight.

Nazgul how market?

AfDapone:
Me that can trek 2km on a daily basis.

I walk a distance of 7km (10,000 steps) on a daily basis and in the evenings because I live a sedentary lifestyle.

If I tell you where I dey trek to and fro for Lagos, you go shock.

When I get back home, na sleep get me.

Konquest:
@Folake, the pleasure is mine.

I had some prior engagements too, that's why I'm responding to this now.

Hmmh, I can now see one of the major reasons why you gravitated towards becoming a lawyer... "Acts of service." I love that aspect of your LLanguage. However, "A fine woman who is self-motivated, intellectual and a good conversationalist would be a better turn on for me to start with."

Tbh, Jamaican jerk chicken, bunny chow from South Africa, asun OR boli and grilled fish, both from Nigeria, etc, are some of the classic street foods that can be tasted by tourists and locals alike. Street foods reflect the SOUL of a people and can be got from designated clean environs.

You can check out the Website link below to get a flavor of global street foods and see if you're inspired to try any of these food niches when next you travel internationally or domestically for leisure OR maybe even use the idea to complement your source of income down the road (in addition to your law profession as a young lawyer).

Alright then, we'll chat later.

Take care.

Ciao.

That is no problem.

Hahahaha yeah, Acts of Service is the koko.

About good conversationalist? That is non-negotiable for me. I can't involve myself with men who can't hold good conversations. All those "How are you?" "I'm fine" "Okay" "Bye" and the convo ends there is NOT FOR ME.

If peradventure I give someone my number and the tone of our convo is already like that, I'd be turned off by Day 1 and ignore the person. I won't proceed further.

Let me know what tickles your fancy, were you a thief in your former life? What are your plans and aspirations? What are your thoughts towards Japa? Do you patronize prostitutes?
Does your family have letterhead paper? Where do you see yourself in 5 years time? (I like ambitious and disciplined men. That too is non-negotiable).

However with all these I mentioned, I am not Sapiosexual. I'm Demisexual. I can have great conversations and all with someone but if I CANNOT connect to you emotionally, then it is a wasted cause.

It's the main reason I have so many male friends that are fine and all of that. People always ask me "You have fine male friends na, hook up with one and be in a relationship". It is really not that simple for me. I need that BOND of close friendship. It is after such bond is created, I MAY now develop sexual attraction to such person. It is not a guarantee though, hence I said MAY.

I'm very picky when it comes to Men too. Na why my heart strong.

I like suya, puff puff, boli and grilled fish/groundnut, asun. These are classic Nigerian street foods. Here in Lagos, I get them in clean environs and so far, haven't regretted it or purged yet. That's why I'm careful where I buy stuffs.

Thank you very much Konquest. I'd check the link. Gracias!
(Hehehe I hope to travel internationally soon oh, preferably for my birthday. From my mouth to God's ears. Living in delulu is the solulu )

Alright, have a lovely day ahead, Ma'am/Sir.
