One’s Favourite

I like white and jollof rice wei dey beef.
E dey sweet me wen soup get bitter leaf.
Hot Akara for cold morning dey make me chill.
And nothing kill me pass chicken wen dem grill.
I dey chop potato wei come from Irish.

And I too like cats wei dey be like fish.
I like to dey baptise garri from toe to head.
Las las, na Agege be my daily bread.
I like to chop akpu wei strong like Samson.
With Egusi or okra, sha all na the same tin.

Pepper soup wei gather kpomo like national assembly.
Or isi ewu wei go make brain for me.
Abacha no dey carry last for this regime.
Sometimes, our belle na small small chops,
Dey help us to redeem.
