...Omonoba...
Our people say:
Yoruba: B’ópé títí, akólòlò yó pe "baba"
Eng: A stammerer would eventually say "father" - Yoruba proverb.

* I have Jesus.
* Did the gods turn Enugu soil red out of anger or is Enugu soil lateritic?
* His eyes are on the sparrow, I know he watches me.
* I read somewhere that most Africans are overweight. I read elsewhere that most Africans are starving. They - of the They Institute - cannot even make up their minds.
* Them: "Your English is very good, Oh my God. Wow, you speak good English for a non-native"
Me: "You too".
* Two people who always have something to laugh about will make it through many things.
* Awon arugbo so pe, olodo lon korin. 'Won so pe olodo lon se film. Few times, the old man sitting beneath the iroko tree sees nothing but it's bark.
* We may be shocked by the people we see or don't see in heaven. May we be there to be shocked, dear Lord.
* I want suya and bole/fish/pepper (Rivers State style) and zobo and Cabin BIS-keet and Rivers native soup and eko tutu and my mother's edikaikong soup and my father's groundnut soup. All I have is my stew.
* Hanging from my mother's wrapper, used to be the solution to all the problems in the world.
* Do not go into heaven uninvited. Live this great life, then attend your grand reception.
* I think 'mineral' sounds much better than 'pop' or 'soda'.
* I still find it hard to give or take with my left hand.
* Nigerian men have the worst and most entertaining pick up lines. 'Oh baby gyal, your boobs are showing. Let me help you hide them'. Olodo.
