There are so many of them, but here’s one circling my head at the moment: “T’omode ba mowo we, a ba agba jeun.” Translation: When a child washes his/her hand well, s/he could eat with elders. What’s yours?

I’m faraway in America so I don’t think my vote will count, unfortunately, but if it does, I might give it to Goodluck.
Meanwhile, check out this joke:
Ibrahim Babangida visited a school to campaign.
The excited kids wanted to ask him questions and he obliged them.
Dayo stood up and said “Mr. President, I have three questions”:
1. Who killed Dele Giwa?
2. Why did you annul the June 12 Election?
3. Who frustrated the judicial processes and why was Gani Fawehinmi not allowed to try your security chiefs for the murder of Dele Giwa based on the evidence he had?
Before Babangida could answer, the recess bell rang, and the kids went on break. When they came back the session continued.
Musa got up and said “Mr. President, I have five questions for you?”
1. Who killed Dele Giwa?
2. Why did you annul the June 12 Election?
3. Who frustrated the judicial processes and why was Gani Fawehinmi not allowed to try your security chiefs for the murder of Dele Giwa based on the evidence he had?
4. Why did the recess bell ring one hour early?
5. Where’s Dayo???
That I don’t drive an electric car. I could do with plenty savings on fuel cost.
LOL. Do people ever answer questions like this anymore? I’m closer to each of them to different degrees so that’s hard.
But, to answer, the favourite has to be the first born because we get to make him the butt of jokes every time, sometimes at our own expense (especially when we were younger). And the last born, of course, because she’s so cute, and because she’s the only one younger than me.
