Etymology section is self-contradictory

"The term "Azonto" was originally a rude reference to wayward girls, it stems from the word "Abontoa", which means an ugly girl, but it has since lost its sting. The dance "azonto" is a communicative dance believed to originate from "Apam" which literally means to work." So: which of these is true? and what language are these words in?
