Nigerians like trendy slangs, and most of these trends and slangs emanated from songs or movies. However, these days, many of these slangs come from ‘hypes’ and social media skits. Saturday Beats dissects some of them

'Shedi bala bala’

A catchy hook that caught the attention of Nigerians through Tiktok videos practically took over the ever-buzzing entertainment and social media space.

The skit by DJ Basplit featuring hypeman, Bobby Banks, urged women to wiggle their butts. Night clubs and parties throbbed with the hook and it seemed no party was complete until the DJ played the track.

‘Dorime’

A pseudo-Latin song popularly known as ‘Ameno’, ‘Ameno Dorime’ or simply ‘Dorime’, is a French new age musical project written by Eric Levi and titled ‘ERA-Ameno’.

Released in 1996 as a single off his debut album, ‘Era’ that became successful in Latin America, France, Sweden and Belgium.

The lyrics are written in pseudo–Latin language but the words have no real meaning in Latin although they sound like Latin. The vocals, which were performed by Harriet Jay and Guy Protheroe, have a compelling effect on listeners, coupled with the instrumentation and arrangement of the song. The song which gained large acceptance this year, especially on Tiktok, was said by some to be a ‘cursed song because of its possessive sound which comprises a pitch-altered Gregorian chant over an unbalanced sparse electronic music’.

However, in Nigeria, it quickly became one of the most played sounds at nightclubs.

Although most people believe the song to be harmless, some nightclub goers were said to have claimed to have an unusual urge to overspend whenever the song was played. Some also alleged that they always felt coerced to purchase drinks they had no prior intention of buying whenever the DJ plays the song. The song is also played during celebratory moments or whenever the most expensive drinks are purchased in a club.

Small yansh dey shake’

The hype piece, ‘Small yansh dey shake’ that went viral on TikTok months ago, was created by hypeman, Emmyblaq, who is known for working with club DJs.

The phrase, ‘See small yansh dey shake o,’ is no doubt one of the most viral slangs of 2021. The euphemism that started as a slang to portray ladies with small backsides who dance at clubs is now used to describe persons who do unexpected things, especially after they had been underrated.

You want to bam bam’

The hook, ‘You want to bam bam’, by Goya Menor in collaboration with Nektunez, was released earlier this month and is a new amapiano-version of the song, Ameno, which is undoubtedly one of the most talked-about songs of 2021.

Like others on this list, ‘You want to bam bam’ became a viral sensation first on Tiktok, with people making dance videos to the song. It can be described as the Nigerian version of the song, Ameno, popularly known as Dorime.

In all these, I only shudder when people refer to the president as Mr integrity, that man really is one deceptive old character. The 8th assembly brought this act to him to sign, his excuse then was that it was so close to the elections and he can't sign it. When this 9th assembly started working on sending this act across to him, I remember he hosted the senate president and the house of Rep. Speaker and in their press briefing after that meeting, they told Nigerians that the president has assured of his assent to the bill once it comes to him. Even after INEC has repeatedly maintained that the bill does not put the burden of conducting primaries on them, theirs is to monitor primaries hence you shouldn't be arguing the cost of conducting direct primaries on INEC as reason for withholding assent. We know the reason is because of electronic transmission of results and I ask again, who is afraid of electronic transmission of election results?

Electoral Act amendment bill: Senate backs down on overriding Buhari, refers bill to constituents.

THE Senate on Wednesday failed to override the veto of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), on the Electoral Act Amendment bill.

The President of the Senate, Dr Ahmad Lawan, after an executive session, said the lawmakers had decided to take the President’s rejection of the bill to their constituencies during Christmas and New Year holidays before deciding on the next line of action.

Buhari had withheld assent to the Electoral Act amendment bill 2021, insisting that the inclusion of the mandatory direct primaries in the bill might pose financial, legal and security challenges.

While the House of Representatives led by Femi Gabajabiamila had resolved to debate the matter after they returned from recess in January, the Senate remained adamant even as 73 senators reportedly resolved to override the President’s veto.

It was learnt that the leadership of the House was waiting on the Senate to override the President’s veto and then the Reps would follow suit. This information, it was learnt, had been communicated to Lawan.

Aware of the plan to override the President’s veto, several governors of the All Progressives Congress relocated to Abuja and began lobbying Lawan and some other influential lawmakers.

A top source said, “Many APC governors relocated to Abuja over this matter. The lobbying was led by Governor Kayode Fayemi (Ekiti) and Atiku Bagudu (Kebbi), Lawan assured them that the President would not be embarrassed.”

At plenary on Wednesday, Lawan said the chamber would consult with the House of Representatives on how to respond to the President’s decision to veto the bill.

Lawan made this known after the Senate emerged from an executive (closed-door) session to deliberate on the President’s decision to withhold assent to the electoral bill passed by the National Assembly.

He noted that the provisions of the 1999 Constitution (as amended) do not permit the chamber to exclusively take any action on overriding a Presidential veto in the absence of the House.

Lawan stated that a joint position would be reached with the House after due consultation with Nigerians to determine the appropriate line of action, after both chambers reconvene from the Christmas and New Year break.

We will consult our constituents during recess, they have a role to play, says Lawan
Speaking on what transpired in the closed session, Lawan said, “The Senate, in a closed session, deliberated on matters relevant to the workings of the Senate in particular and the National Assembly in general. The Senate, also in the closed session, discussed how to respond to the letter from Mr. President on the electoral bill amendment.

"The Senate consequently resolved to consult with the House of Representatives in January when both the Senate and House will be in session.

“Presently, the House of Reps has gone or recess and like we all know, the constitutional provision is for the Senate and House of Representatives to jointly take the appropriate action.

“The Senate also resolved to consult with our constituents during our recess in January. The Senate believes that our constituents have a role to play as the major stakeholders in the laws that we make in the National Assembly.”

But a top member of the House told The PUNCH that Lawan was only being clever, adding that the House had informed him that the Senate could go ahead to override the veto.

“Lawan was only being clever. We had informed him that once the Senate overrides the President’s veto, we would concur. This is how we passed the bill in the first place. He was the one who scuttled this bill,” the lawmaker who wished to remain anonymous said.

However, it was learnt that the National Assembly may not go ahead with the plan to amend the Electoral Act.

A lawmaker told The PUNCH that in the letter written to the National Assembly by the President, the lawmakers were not advised to send an amended version.

He said the President had shown time and again that he had no problem with the Electoral Act 2015 and so the lawmakers would stop embarrassing themselves.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities has postponed its decision on strike, saying that consultations are still ongoing.

This was contained in a press statement issued by the union after its National Executive Council meeting.

The meeting held at its Festus Iyayi National Secretariat, University of Abuja, on Saturday, December 18, 2021 to review the level of government’s implementation of the FGN-ASUU Memorandum of Action of December 23, 2020 and other related matters.

In the press statement titled, ‘Enough of blackmail’, signed by ASUU president, Prof Emmanuel Osodeke, the lecturers regretted that the Federal Government had turned its back on the plan to set up an inter-ministerial committee to review the draft Renegotiated 2009 FGN-ASUU Agreement.

Earlier, ASUU had announced plans to embark on a strike over the Federal Government’s failure to meet its demands.

Apart from the Earned Academic Allowances, ASUU said its demands included the review of the NUC Act to curb the proliferation of universities by state governments who are not funding the existing ones; adoption of the University Transparency Accountability Solutions (UTAS) with concurrent discontinuance of the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS) and distortion in salary payment.

Others are the release of accumulated promotion arrears; and the review and signing of the draft document on the Renegotiation of 2009 ASUU-FGN Agreement.

Part of the statement read, “NEC was worried by the spirited efforts of government agents to reduce the demands of ASUU to a regime of intermittent payment of watered-down revitalisation fund and release of distorted and grossly devalued Earned
Academic Allowances.

“ASUU shall not relent in demanding improvement in the welfare and conditions of service of our members. However, we shall resist any attempt to blackmail the union and derail our patriotic struggle for a productive university system by official propaganda founded on tokenism and crumb-sharing.

“NEC concluded that government has failed to satisfactorily address all the issues
raised in the 2009 FGN-ASUU Agreement and subsequent MoUs and MoAs.

“However, considering the ongoing intervention and consultation efforts, NEC resolved to review the situation at a later date with a view to deciding on the next line of action.”
