    I grew up in Voinjama, Lofa County Liberia...as a child I heard this and many other songs played on SLBS.....we may never see those beautiful days again, but we are blessed to have lived and experienced them. We will always regret that we Liberians brought the adverse change on our neighbors and worst still, on ourselves. My love and respect to all Sierra Leoneans!!

      It had major airplay the next county over on ELNR in Yekepa. It was a major party song. 😊

    The song is all about family affairs and jealousy. The woman is explaining her frustration regarding her matrimonial home. She is asking family members and elders within the community to listen to her story of how another woman is trying to take her husband from her through sneaking. She further emphasises how the lady is yet to join the secret society for cirumcision and she is already looking for a man.
