1. Rallyround: Mmmm! What does it mean?
2. Installmentally
This doesn’t exist anywhere else
except only in Nigeria. If you doubt
this,
3. Night-Vigil
Does anyone ever hold
a vigil during the day?
4. Cunny
This is not meant as a euphemism
for the female body part. When
Nigerians say this word, they mean
“cunning”. How is that for a giant
leap forward?
5. Disvirgin
How hard is it to say deflowered? It
must be extremely difficult because
even health professionals and
newsmen use this absurd word that
doesn’t exist.
6. Wake Keeping (Wake keep)
Nigerians have not only made the
old European custom of watching
over a corpse till it’s buried (called
a wake) theirs, they have actually
renamed it. Please, there is no such
phrase as “wake keep” or even
“wake keeping”.
Naija!
