@Iamsynord. This your list get many faults....


Wey P-square? E get as e dey do me was gotten off their do me track.

Then there is Banky W 'Strong thing' eg, "omo, that babe do me strong thing'

D'banj- Dikoko is still in use today to mean 'the matter/issue at hand'...then he brought 'Koko' meaning deek and 'kokolet' meNing babe/girl.

Bros, na 2010 you begin dey hear naija songs? What are words like 'no lele' and even that mumu 'sneh' doing on your list when these decade old words are still around?
