why strip dem naked??
Just to make the public know their sex. To clear the doubt that they are male and not female as some mischief makers may want to announce that the suspected cultists were harmless females

Stain could be used as a verb or noun in English language but its yoruba translations ABAWON or EERI or IDOTI
only exists as nouns.


While dirty which is an adjective in English language is tranlasted as DOTI in yoruba language, DOTI
could be used as a verb or adjective depending on the premises of its occurence in a statement.

However IDOTI (stain, noun) should not be confused for DOTI (make unclean, dirty), which could be a verb or adjective according to where it appeared in the statement.


The two sentences are different in composition because obviously they are from two different Languages.

If sentence A is translated from the original Language (English) to Yoruba Language it would read like this " Ma doti aso mi nitori owo re doti.
Here the first" doti" occured as a verb, while at the second instance it is used simply as an adjective.

I hope this helps

This is the English version titled Down falls


It suffices that the Elder perished here than the Elder was captured here. That is the name of the Medicine man that divined for the Chief, the chief also known as Down who sleeps in a basket as his leg obstructs the street, he was the patron of the tortoise that cultivates the sky and the son of a bitch.

The medicine man told him to pour libations, to the Earth. Should he not fall. But he didn't.

So It happened that the chief later eavesdropped and learnt that his wife, the one who ties a hundred wrappers and none reaches her knees was seeing the sprite that owns a well but bathes with spittle... The Moon was their witness. Down was irritated but Ifa warned him of limitations.

So he went to consult his alter ego under the river that just flows and to hunt an alibi where neither the Sun nor the Moon penetrates, it was so dark and eerily silent, you could only hear yourself meditate and maybe Oluweri the river goddess would counsel you... Oluweri keeps a pet, Dark Secrets.

Then he goes to the house he built with cotton wool from where his wife had recently absconded. Oh no! She should have left her head behind, after all, he paid for it.
The moon giggled outside where he (Down) ate Cayenne pepper and invokes Sango who sent flames to consume the lovers and veils the sky.
He raised his head and shoulders and levitates, he was going to surprise the lunatic Moon, teach it to mock, kick it around...
He was musing as he rose.
The World and the Earth watched. Just as he peaked the highest mountain, the clouds shifts and he beheld the immensity of the Moon.
He was upset.
The Moon stared him down as he grabbed the clouds futilely and he fell because they were slippery...
He remembered the Oracle and promised not to fall the way he was, he pronounced the mantra for transfiguration and became a Downpour.
So the Chief also known as Down fell on the World and the Earth...

Awwwww thanks. I am impressed that you can read it, and you even love it. Thanks.
Ok about the Tom cat, well I honestly think its superstition. My mum believes it tho.

Family › Re: Why So Many Women Still Take Their Husband’s Last Name by illicit(m): 10:58am On Dec 28, 2017
BeansAndBread:
I think this is caused because we've over adopted the Western Culture. I'll speak for Islam only; Islamically a woman bears her father's name even after marriage. So you'll find in many strict Islamic countries women despite after marriage still bear names like Zainab bint Mu'awiyah(Zainab daughter of Mu'awiyah).

So we need to do away with the Western Culture and adopt the Islamic one grin I know some people will pounce on me but that's the hard reality, we're still under the clutches of colonialism.
This your argument is so stupid.
So as an african if I have to reject anything western, Islamic culture or whatever is the only alternative. What happens to the African way of life itself....
