To Those Who Rely on Fake Friends.

“Era o fe popo denu.” (Ants don’t really love wood…in spite of the appearance…they are only after the wood’s exploitation and eventual destruction.) – Yoruba adage.

Great! I guess it's not going to be considered a flattery if I refer to you as a sage.

What a rich culture the Yoruba people have! I love the translation of the adage...very practical and meaningful.

Wow. You did give a good translation to that classical adage of our people: "Ants don’t really love wood…in spite of the appearance…they are only after the wood’s exploitation and eventual destruction."
Thank you!
