Kiss Daniel- Jombo (ENGLISH TRANSLATION, MEANING, LYRICS, AUDIO GET)
NOTE (UPDATED- thanks to BountyPrimo): The word ‘Jombo’, is a Nigerian Yoruba word, and it means something you took, which you have no right to take; in other simple word- ‘Contraband’. It appears in the Yoruba popular saying, ‘o gbe Jombo’, which means ‘he/she carries a contraband item’.
