Chin chin. == shin shin(ch and sh has same pronunciation in most cases in english language)
Pineapple ==pinapoo
How else would it have been pronounced?

Arsen wenger = asin winger ( most Nigerians )

Robben = robin ( oyo, osun, ekiti and ogun )

Saturday = sarrurday ( oyo and osun )

Question = questin ( this is common in the sw/se)

Chelsea = shelsea ( sw tongue )

Oil = oyel ( south east tongue )

People = fifu ( typical hausa tongue )

Government = ganment ( my brothers from the north )
u must be from the east, cos u never mentioned those that has to do with ibos like

oil-- oyil
ororo-- ololo
chelsea-- chaysee
drogba--dlogba
all these are common with ibos

Re: How To Identify A Nigerian (pic) by naijanaso:
The easiest and most efficient way to know a Nigerian is PLACE THE PERSON IN A ROOM, BLIND THE WINDOWS, PUT AIR CONDITIONER AND LIGHT UP THE ROOM PROPERLY. Then all of a sudden, put off the light. You will get a surprise response of ''NEPA'' even when you do this in Europe or US.
