Money buy hapiness for my front just now

Apo sasamura o gbe ri
: pouch of Sasamura’s leaf is never dry
APO SASAMURA MEANING? Even though some believe Sasamura to be Kangaroo, this word as often used in this proverb, it refers to the Sasamura’s leaf. It’s a kind of leaf that’s always watery no matter the season. And this is why legendary musician Kwam 1, adapted it to music to mean ‘I shall never lack’ cos as the root (apo) of Sasamura Leaf always supplies it water, my source (God) will supply me also.
