New Words Introduced Into Our Lexicon by israelbenzion: 2:38pm On Sep 26, 2012 |
These two words were recently coined. Drop ur tots on what u think abt their suitability or otherwise. 1. Naijaphobia = discrimination, distrust, default criminal-labelling, and hatred for persons Nigerian, mostly expressed in racist and discriminatory comments and deeds towards them. 2. Anti-naijaism=inexplicable and sometimes irrational default opposition to anything, idea, or person Nigerian. |
