Here is the breakdown of slangs popularized in 2018

Na Dem Dey Rush Us: made popular by Charles Inojie of popular comedy series, THE JOHNSONS after the meme went viral in August through Social media, especially Twitter and Instagram.

Accolade: The month of March was definitely one to remember as it was the month of Accolades. Charles Okocha made this phrase popular after he released his viral video on instagram. Kudos Charles! You have paid your dues and paid in full too (laughs)

Everything Stew: this slang began in October this year and was originated by Wizkid and Tiwa Savage after the release of his hit single FEVER!
