Hi Uncle Suntou,
Since you are a Fula barindinyo, you might know the Batchi title is
just like "Modikebba" in Mandinka. In ours, it is mostly a gossip term
where you use the title to address a character as in mockery or
praise.
In the character pictured as Batchi, count me for the first Batchi. In
the Fulbe nomenclature itself, Samba (Batch) is normally the second
born son in the family.
The only lesson in it probably, the prayer underneath the blanket is
truly empty.
I intend to furnish a lot of these "clean" jokes here. Some of them
are applicable to life situations and others might not. Others might
caricature characters coincidentally and most of them are just of the
ordinally, from hear-say traditional story-telling or my own craft. It
is part of my tribute to my culture and the roots where I come from.
It shows the power of our cultures. It shows levels of societal
understanding of many affairs.
The jaws' movement will keep you young. Smiles will keep you young.
Jokes are a unifying factor. Interpretations should be open, not in a
manner to hurt any ones' feelings, but rather the beneficial
derivative lessons showing occurrence of humor, despite the fact that
it can be non fun at times.
Have new year to all the Muslim umma.
The joke is I endorsed you to be Gambia's VP, and Micheal Scales
(The Briton) will be a flagbearer.
Best of regards,
Yj
