Failing that you could say

  X ge la djan gi la djim Y po`o cu pinxe le ckafi

where X and Y are the markers for attitudinal scope - I forget
what they are.

Alternatively,

  ge la djan gi po`o la djim cu pinxe le ckafi

might do the job, because I can't think what else it might mean.
(But it only works for forethought connectives.)
