Potential Warning

If you do suspect that you are being played by a Yahoo specialist, simply send this message...

 

Bro.. Abeg, no play you wayo! 

 

Then see what comes back, the literal translation is -

 

Bro, Please, don't play your trickery! The subtext also reads as don't be a w@nker.

 

One of the benefits of working with a large team of Nigerian engineers - na me big Oga - wise like Solomon - see every (I'm the boss and I see what you are up to). I am now pretty good at Pidgins / broken english.

When I was getting regular shit from a particular Nigerian traffic warden, one of my Ghanaian mates told me to say "omabessya owetchoo" (spellings prob wrong) while make to point a pistol-hand at him.

I'm told it's something along the lines of "I do not like what you do you cnut", not particularly harsh but it had the desired effect, he went very pale & I don't think I ever saw him again.

Result lol

If you mispronounced it, you may have inadvertently said "if you don't fuck off, I will bugger you to death with a pineapple".... hence the pale face...

To be fair, I'd lost my shit with him the week before, I was extremely racist, I used the worst swear words & even threatened to run him down with my Merc sprinter, any of which could have got me nicked, but his response was (imagine the African accent) "why you say that to me, you & I, we are friends now"

 

Seriously lol
