How can you claim to be Nigerian but you don't know the meaning of 'japa?.' Your Nigerian passport should be seized and you should be detained and sent to a re-education camp. |

YungMillionaire:No need for re-education camp when Nairaland and Igbodefender are here. |

YungMillionaire:Are you aware that the word "Japa" is not frequently used in Nigeria? Are you also aware that Pidgin has variations? 1 Like |
