Dont be stupid. I am trying to cure you of your ignorance. To pull you out of the sea of stupidity.

Dont criticise what you have zero idea about. Gazelle gagaraga is very correct.

It exists. Same as gagaraga. I am a Yoruba. I grew up in Lag. Even if i spent most of life as a northerner. Gaga( in high tone) then raga (in low tone)

O nse gagaraga kiri... This means he is behaving unstable. Not really insane. But not quite settled .

If you say: " O nse Ara gaga-raga kiri. It is used to insult or throw jab at a slim person of skeleton structure walking around without clothe.

It means walking around with skeleton-like body without shame.

I swear to gods, everything Tinubu is saying has meanings but our youths nowaday are not ready to learn.
Tinubu is saying these words in the appropriate places.
when i heard the rumour of gazelle gagaraga. I told my friends that only those in the group(yahoo) can relate.
advice to nyamiri youths, be ready to dig deeper into mysteries of this life. And know that we have thousands of languages in this world.

Urchin also kindly explain the beheading and stealing of a whole human being by emilokan.

98.9% of tinubu is dubious, robbery ,fake and contentious.
Is this who you want as president?
Think, urchin, think.

What you’re saying now is that Tinubu is responsible for all the killings, robbery, kidnapping in south east? There are some levels in life that you’ll reach, every other thing other than making connections, making money becomes your focus. If You get to own a % of Eko Atlantic and still get some percentage of Land sold in Banana island, would you involve yourselves in worthless shady deals that has no benefits?

Lagos: I am a son of the soil (Awori). My origin. My home.

Egba: I am son of the soil from Palace. Had my Education here from childhood too.

Which descent of Yoruba are you?

I will agree with you if you calm down and say it is a slang.

Gagaraga or garagaga does not exist in yoruba etymology or ever use in Yoruba folklore or in adjectival premonition of ideas in the word-joining in Yoruba parlance.

Yoruba words sound sweeter than what you are insinuating. Local tongue could result to your 'gagaraga'. No yoruba person will understand you at first instance of calling that word., bro.

Fact is different from insinuation.
--- my last discuss on this matter, bro.

Please make more enquiry about this. You can even seek a third-party knowledge or larger audience from another platform.

I am an ibadan boy. I not only grew up hearing those words around me. I used it and it was used to me.

Gazettengr.com was where the news of supposedly Tinubu's gaffee emanatted from before been spread like wildfire by people who only takes pleasure in making mockery of the APC presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

According to their report, it reads "Yahoo boys’ in local parlance means internet fraudsters but The Gazette could not immediately find the meaning of the terminology gazelle gagaraga, despite searches in major dictionaries and thesaurus."

The news here: https://www.nairaland.com/7511552/gazelle-gagaraga-tinubu-suffers-gaffe

But what Gazettengr failed to understand is that there is no stated rules or law that you must communicate with words from 'major dictionaries or thesaurus' in political rallies.

The meaning of gazelle gagaraga
There is what we call gara gara in yoruba. It means unstable or unsettled. Same as the pidgin slang 'gragra' .

We also have the word gagara (ga-ga-ra) or gagaraga (gaga-raga) used by Tinubu which means boastful, pompous, inflated, proud, made, self-important, domineering, pendantic, or magniloquence.

The south-westerners can relate; the yorubas to be specific. There is a street word: Igara (I-gara) which is derive from or shortform of gagara or gagaraga it also means boastful, inflated, proud etc. (as aforementioned)

We normally use it like 'Igara chicken': Which translate to boastful empty chicken which is only covered by plenty feathers.

Or 'Igara iceblock' which means boastful or proud iceblock which will only end up as water.
These words are local street words or slangs.

Gazelle
A gazelle is one of many antelope species in the genus Gazella. With a horn, Gazelles are known as swift animals.

when we use the word gazelle to refer to person or group of people. It means Proud person, something that dont stay one place easily, something that changes location swiftly. Reason why when we say someone is growing gazelle horn ' it means the person is becoming proud"


So Tinubu saying he is going to “turn so called yahoo yahoo boys into in manufacturing and creation of than being gazelle gagaraga.”

Means he is going to change them from a boastful proud unsettled yahoo-yahoo boys to a product manufacturer and an intelligent creator.

Living and learning, dont be always quick to criticise or make fun of what you dont know.
. Wherever you may be, we will find you and return you to Yaba left. This is so shameful and disgraceful. I have never seen a human so ****as this

Most of them are empty skull, just looking for what Jagaban will say for them to catch their nonsense cruise.

They should leave their personal issues and be looking for Tinubu mistakes, they should get it cleared, the more you people are publicizing all these you termed as gaffe, BAT is cruising towards victory. They should cry in silence.

But are all his audience yoruba speaking people? If not, how does he expect them to comprehend the unexpected switch to a local dialect? And if they are not meant to understand all his messages, is the purpose of communication not defeated? What then is the reason for the campaign, if the voters and audience are not meant to understand all your campaign messages?

Please dont be hypocritical and judgement. We all have been there before. In the peak of things, we tend to lost in the moment. Even peter Obi was used the word 'Nna' to refer to Arisetv host before. This things happens.
