The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) has been updated to include a new set of Nigerian words in its diction. The new words reflect the everyday life of an average Nigerian and the exciting street mannerisms and Pidgin English, which are fast gaining acceptability across Africa and beyond. Reflecting ethnic nationalities as well as demographics, the new entries also highlight Nigeria’s cultural diversity.
