Only1mi:Hey "koboless" is not a good word. "Penniless" is a perfect word. Try to learn standard English, not Nigerian English. |

Op, I totally disagree on #1 point. If penniless is acceptable, so should koboless . We use naira and kobo here not pound and penny. 3 Likes |

lomprico:Some slang are accepted generally while others are not and regarded as grammatical solecisms. |
Re: 20 Poisonous Expressions Used By Nigerians; Corrections, Tips And Reasons. by Nobody: 8:45am On Sep 02, 2017 |
lomprico:The main reason "koboless" is incorrect is simply because it's not a standard currency, unlike dollar and so on. |
