What does Afonjas mean? I'm still trying to know the meaning.

Afonja means a slave and coward. Go and read the History of Afonja and Fulanis in Ilorin.

They killed Afonja, a Yoruba king and install an Emir.

Op, u forget:
Brown Roofers

Descendants of fallen Angels

Nairaland is one funny place where people come to read latest happenings and to cool off. The most interesting part on the forum are the comments, where you get to read other peoples view on a particular matter and either respond or contribute. Now, the juicy parts of the comments are the hilarious ones, some of the comments are so funny, you can even crack a rib while laughing.
Personally, i prefer scrolling through comments on nairaland than buying ticket to attend comedy shows.
Thus, the following list came from closed observation on some of the most used cliche or slangs (as the case may be) that appear as comment on nairaland threads.
From the list to the greatest
Leggo
15. Iranu Abasa
Ever since Lil kesh used it in a song, nairalanders have decided to to partake in it. its mostly used when describing things that are unpleasant .

14. Have you Blame GEJ Today
This one is mostly found on threads where Lai Mohammed is relating the present Economy crisis to the immediate past administration

13. Who U EPP
Who dollar Epp, Who Pilgrimage Epp, Who Bleep Don Epp. Olamide surely gave nairalanders a comment kick starter.

12. End Time
End Time Baby, End time Girlfriend, End Time Pastors, End Time data Plan, End Time Mod. Just name it, naliralanders will End Time It.

11. GEJ My Hero
Temitemi started this campaign sometime last year, till date it still rocks on any thread where GEJ is being Exaclted.

10. Wasteners
I'll Pass

9. IPOB Youth
On nairanland, any monicker that support PDP or is Anti-the present administration is labelled an IPOB youth.

8. Change the Change
you see this on threads where it seems as if the wailers are winning the war.

7. Ugandan Brothers
I'll Still Pass

6. Lala and Snake
You will surely see this one on any snake thread that hits the frontpage. i fear for those moniker that use this one sha , if not because Lalasticlala is gentle, imagine if it was someone like Jim Iyk that is Lalasticlala.

5. Guess Who Is Wailing?
This one comes up when a well known Supporter of the Ruling party starts wailing. Some will even go as far as warning other Wailers not to give Wailers Form to the Repentant Soul.

4. Pictures You Will Relate With
This One Started As a child's Play until Smellymouth and Susan404 started adding spices to it. Even Photoshoot used it as a campaign strategy during the Mr Nairaland Competition.

3. Kenya and sex related news Be Like
And picture of the man with his two index fingers pointing forward will do the magic.

2. Afonjo Brothers
Still Passing!!!

1. I Came Here to Check Names
I present to you the "NAME CHECKERS ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA" (NCAN).
This one is found on virtually all the threads that hit the frontpage on nairaland these days. The good thing about the monikers that used this one is that they have branches everywhere in the universe, included Mars and Jupiter.

And they kept quiet in their domain? What a cowardice?

Op, how about those " CLICK HERE" for more pictures or info?

lonelydora:

After what the Dan Fodio empire did to OYO Empire, they are always afraid to engage the fulanis.

Cowardice runs in their lineage that was why they ceded the Head of State to Gowon in 1965.

The "Afonja" tin still baffles me though....cos everytin about Afonja started and ended in Ilorin, so how it's now generally use by some people so much that they even created user-name for it just 2 mock a whole tribe still bugs me. Self-delusion of the highest order!!

If you call an ilorin person "Afonja", I wudn't be surprised, he was their king..but d whole "tribe"??...its absolutely Laughable and amazing!!.

Yes it's also absolutely laughable and amazing when the also call a whole tribe- Flat heads, drug barons, Ugandan, Ugwu Republic, is there any tribe in Nigeria that originated from Uganda
You don't expect bigots nd silly individuals to call your tribe something reasonable or logical, do you

kenonze:

Afonja was a Yoruba warrior who turned his back against Oyo and ended up killed by the Fulani in Ilorin.

Ugandans, is that one funny, or calling someone IPOB yoot, abeg Park well....
Preaching selective Justice...
As the name Wasterners annoy you that's how IPOB youth or Ugandans annoy me
I'm in from Uganda or have I declared that I'm no longer a citizen of Nigeria eh??

Afonja was neither a slave nor a coward. If you are gonna insult a tribe, at least get your facts right.

I have poor foundation in Nigeria Civics and History

The Op has 'gone mad again'

IPOB means indigenous people of Biafra.. and that is not an insult.. except you're no longer proud of the Biafra movement
this the first time I'm hearing this Ugandan thing....
and is that even an insult?

I don't have a prob with afonja..since that's the royal name of the Ilorin kings/rulers but wasteners is a total insult.. (for this thread alone)

acc to OP's idea, this thread is supposed to be for fun..OP didn't have to bring that here. its for politics and tribal related threads (because we all know the hatred for each other on NL is here to stay).

let's save it for other threads and have fun here..that's what I'm saying
