As popular artiste, Asake, sings a suggestive song after his father, Fatai Odunsi, accused him of neglect, the word ‘cajole’ has returned to the reckoning of many people.
The reason is that Asake strategically uses it in the Yoruba song he put on social media.
The father, who is said to be undergoing health challenges, had cried out in some interviews going viral online.
In his response, Asake sings, , “You can’t please everyone, you can’t please the world. But anything you are doing, just do it for God. My own father wants to cajole me, and I have sent so much money to him. I have struggled for so many years, but they want to make life tire me.”
By the way, what does ‘cajole’ means?
According to Cambridge Dictionary, it means: “to persuade someone to do something they might not want to do, by pleasant talk and promises, sometimes ones which are false.”
Oxford Dictionary defines as “persuade (someone) to do something by sustained coaxing or flattery.”
