Owo A Pe K’anu Ko (Money money money – the tongue twisting word)





Eni to f’airii ise re’le ore yio mon baye tihun sara fun ni (You really would not know your value before your friends until you are jobless)
Ore ata o si, se tio owo ba si l’owo (Many call you close/best friend because of what you have to share)
T’owo ba tan n’ile l’aya bu ni lalakora (When there is nothing, then you know how little you could become before your very spouse)
Osi ni je tani mon ori, owo lohun mo bao tan (Poverty is highway to rejection and wealth turn you to instant celebrity)
Owo to so Adebisi, gbogbo araye patapata ni di ebi eni owo mba je (Money will turn you to the friend of all, and everyone will want to din with you like the wealthy man – Adebisi)
Eni a ba ra kafi ra atupa to wa deni ajitana wo nko (One that could have been sold for a penny is now the morning star because of his sudden wealth).
Se bi owo nini l’owo lo s’eru ile deni ti guni kese kiri (Wealth can turn a onetime slave to the master of all)
Owo ape kanu kanu ko (Money money money – the tongue twisting word).

There is a deep connection between access to qualitative healthcare and the prosperity of a nation. A healthy workforce is a productiv
