The English sentence says “I have no intention of coming.” The key word is “coming,” which means moving toward your house. In Yoruba, “wá” means to come.

The wrong options use “lọ” which means “to go” (away). But the sentence is about coming to you, not going away. The verb must match the direction.

When translating, pay attention to direction words. “Come” and “go” are opposites and need different Yoruba verbs.
