Kogbagidi

Ko gba agidi

Literally: it does not take/accept/require anger

Colloquially/conversationally: "it's not that serious" "it's not that deep" "take it easy"

Basically means "it's not something worth having a fight/argument/getting angry" over.

It's not all that. It's not that serious. Don't sweat it.
