I actually get what you mean the cotton picking nonsense bah? mmtchew

Akata means panther.Those who say its cat that left home and blahblah should tell us where they got their translations from

Akata is not panther. Panthers are black leopards. And Leopards are EKUN, but some misinterprets it to be the Tiger. Tigers are not native to Africa.

Yes, fox are called kolokolo. But panthers are large cats. Akata is a smaller animal. Could be the lynx, but definitely not the panther.

I don't know why we refer to them as Akata. However, as used in Nigeria, it's not a derogatory term as now being understood by AAs. It was a term used to differentiate between the (native) American blacks "omo onile" of America, and (recently migrated) Africans.

It's just like as "ajebotta" and "ajepaki" are used to refer to the rich and the poor in Yoruba street lingo.

With all due respect Sir have never being able to figure you out all this while, if i were to give or have an opinion on your good self . . . i still cannot figure out where u are from although not a perequisite though but your roots is ever so vague, a times you are so yoruba and other times you are so hausa and a times so naija delta and God knows many other roots you identify yourself with. . . . .classic by the way

But i certainly give you your full respect having a pan nigeria identity and an innate ability to be any tribe or person out here to be honest is so so so legendary/fascinating but my consolation is you are a Nigerian which is just coolies by me . . . one love bro.
grin

Hopefully we see more of you yorubaness out here with time . . . . . i doubt many folks that know u more will agree to this gesture of mine . . . .

Akata is not from Yoruba, most likely it originated in Congo.

Honestly it's not a compliment but rather a polite way of saying the guy is multifaceted, of questionable roots and that a big question mark is ever hanging on his person like the sword of Damocles . . . .
