Some Endangered Yoruba Words by absoluteSuccess(op): 9:12pm On Feb 28, 2016
Taking "breeze bath" at Takwa bay. Such a lovely place, a chip of the old Paradise.

This chalet is okay, it's a place to visit often.

Your cruise is not complete without a visit.

Good wind is medicinal, I don't have scientific proof. You love to unwind? Let's meet at the jetty.

If you hate breeze,

Try the opposite.

You'll be delirious.

Such beautiful places exist under the sun, a marvel to behold for serenity and scenery of perfection in nature.

You can access Takwa bay through Mcwen, just few yards from race course or Tarawa Balewa Square, it's a place to be.

Think Takwa bay come next holiday. Enjoy the breeze of nature.

Enjoy beautiful Lagos.

Always put sign on yoruba words. I can't understand the sentences. . . Again, always put sign on yoruba words, except those carrying the MI sound.
