Trending Slangs; Nigerians have a way of getting around words, switching them to the most trending slang
in vogue. You could feel "old schoolish" if you have no idea about the trendy word / slang in town.
Those slang could either be culled from a music line, or could be picked from what an artiste said or what
even a top dignitary says.
We've had some slang trend for years and are still making waves. Slangs like "God is watching you” "Diari's
God o" and the likes of them.
From the look of things it seems a new slang is released every year.
Here are the top slangs of 2016 that are trending on social media and on, let's see how long they'll trend.
1. Back to Back: this was culled from Olamide's speech during the 2015 Headies.
"Even my account balance is a hit back to back" Lol!
2. Who you epp is culled from "Phyno" and "Olamide's collaborated Hit track still titled "who you epp" This
song didn't only make waves but also sprung a slang which could trend till God knows when.
I don't see "who you epp" going out of trend anytime soon.
3. Street ti take over. This was also gotten from 2015 Headies misconduct. Guess Olamide is gifted with
unconsciously saying words which could result to a trendy slang.
