Very nice and funny Edovan. grin grin grin

Would people also write it outside their house, on their car or otherwise boldly show it outside of peer sessions?

It appears most are known local idioms and some creative new ones.

Urhobos and Esans (who gave birth to Igbos) were where the first children of Bini. Urhobos should have stayed with Edo instead of joining Delta with Anioma. I understand that politically it favored them. But Urhobos are naturally Edos. ONLY FOOLS WILL DEBATE WHAT I HAVE WRITTEN HERE.
