 BANJO

Secretary, I wan make we employ another ticket officer na wey I don commot that yeye boy wey I put honey for em mouth em say e no want.

(Secretary, I want us to employ another ticket officer now that I have finally sacked that foolish boy)

 SECRETARY

Chairman, let’s not be in a hurry to do that especially now that we’ve increased the ticket fare.

 BANJO

Why you talk so?

(Why did you say so?)

 SECRETARY

(That’s the problem that I have with you young educated people, always speaking too much grammar instead of going straight to the point)
