The next question is:

What is Waina?

IBB

Thanks mal Tukurtukur i have read it but i will check it may be u want to enlight me on something, i will check again.

Back 2 d game

Ans:
Waina is also known as: masa, yar-tsala

Types of waina: Wainar gero, wainar shinkafa etc.

Preparation: It is fried in a special pan made of earth. Depending on the type, waina is usually eaten with stew & man-shanu, groundnut-powdered pepper (jajin kulikuli), sugar, honey

Features: Cycle in shape, size vary depending on the frying pan used. Comes in whitish, brownish, grey actually the colour usually depends on the grain used

Recommendation: Ideal for breakfast (wainar gero ko yar'tsala with jajin kulikuli n koko), waina is also ideal for ceremonial events due to its richness and features i.e 5 guest can wash their mouth with 5pieces of waina n feel satisfied, preparably wainar shinkafa with miyar-tarkwashe(alaiyahu & kabewa) and man-shanu (local butter). Not bad for breakfast for those wishing a heavy morning meal i.e travelers, students

Though I don't know for sure but I think so they should be doing it since they are working differently. More so, each editor has different thought of what sort of title might attract costomers' attention more, and things like that.

Same question:
Get to know [and remember] Allah in prosperity & He will know  [and remember] you in adversity.

Ado Bayero?
Some body should help with answer here, please.
Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if he or she were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness, and understanding you can muster, and do so with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.
