I have seen people say this alot on nairlanad when describing some people's looks (e.g she looks too local for me) but I don't quite understand what it means, what exactly is a 'local look'? |

Ekaite is a very common name of househelps/maids in Nigeria. SO looking ekaite means looking like a househelp., looking poor, illiterate etc. Not very flattering. |
