Please what's the meaning of Nnu Ego?

I asked 3 older relatives, one said 20 bags of cowries, another one said 20 pounds and the third said expensive currency with the 20 denomination. But nobody said 20 naira

KingTom:
Why e sweet you?

This doesn’t look good at all.

All Nigerian politicians deserve worst treatement. The west need to prohibit their medical tourism and even bar them from acquiring any property or any kind of business over there.

All the money they loot should be spent here. The health care system they left in deplorable state should also serve them.

Nnu means salt. Ego - money.

I just understand it as sweet money.

Just as igbos will see a girl with attractive hips..and call it UKWU NNU.

Ukwu - hips
Nnu - salt

So, salt is an adjective to describe something as sweet/pleasant.

However, I'm not sure I have heard something like that before. Maybe you are mispronouncing it. But there is no doubt something like that might exist ..cos igbo names(especially females) before 2000 are so different from what we have now. And back then, people give names based on their dialects...and realities/life experiences. Nowadays, names be like general market. Every state and villages share same names.

Listen with an open mind

The album is mid.

Lmao... You go just know say burna boy Don sing rubbish🤣🤣🤣

He just dey shout for my speaker.

Now that VP Shettima has openly told Tinubu that he is undemocratic tyrant, and that Akpabio and the goons in NASS are lap dogs, and that AGF Fagbemi despite all his legal acumen is a piece of sheet, let's see what renovation and reconstruction B.A.Tmans's minions like Raumdeuter, Airmark, Afrodoc2 and OasisX will come up with.

Salt Money must've been very expensive money that year. You're right about the names, my grandmother's name is Nkolika I never see any Nkoli online Chi Chi Chi ah!

The west won’t prohibit the medical tourism because the money adds to their own economy na .

Ahh Nkoli, can't remember the last time I heard that name. But the Nnuego name is an interesting one. The meaning is deep, it's like a preservative to wealth or something that gives taste to wealth. Imagine a soup without salt... Imagine wealth without the salt to taste.

So many names are going extinct, I think they need to bring them back. Okwesilieze and Ezekwesili sef nobody dey answer again, Nwokedi, Iheukumere sef these are the names of people I grew up knowing make we rest from Chinedu, Chidera, Chijioke, Chizoba, Chinaza, Chinenye, Chikamsu, Chidimma, Chimamamda (this one still dey confuse me till now)

lol. That Buju album is the best thing out of Nigeria in 2 years. I listened to it twice back to back and will use it as soundtrack for a 10k race tomorrow

Are you joking? Even Saudi, UAE and Kuwait military send all their people to London for Cancer treatment, their militaries actually have a large fund for treatment and were some of our largest payors in the health industry. The reality is that not just cutting edge technology, but the highest Medical expertise and Consultants congregate in certain few locations in the world. Porters 5 forces demand it.

I have met Saudi Princes and many dignitaries in my time in the industry, that's how Pakistan Justice Minister daughter invited my wife and I to Pakistan for her wedding last year after getting to know us when her father died in one of our Hospitals, I said no Sir, no be me Taliban go use as example

Looks like that Indian plane crash was a murder-suicide

But why would Boeing not have an override in place to stop plane engines from being switched off during ascent, or at least require 2 people to confirm it

Again, I don’t think Boeing could have done anything. The other pilot tried to override it but the deceleration was already low and impossible to revert.

Exactly why I held a strong position against vilifying Boeing.
