Nija slangs din kuma is like "omo come lets hike it to kofar mata" fashey that one, my bobo as in boyfreind, my beans as in girlfreind (lol)
well i think some come from mostly english and a bit of arabic.

hey guys i want to know from which language does the lagos slang {enough effizy} originate
have u heard of this common saying among guys"jigga basar"
OK i am new here but just a little analysis
Do you realize that all but a few of this words have one thing or the other to do with youths trying to impress ? and about the hausa slangs, they are but silly ways of saying some thing very easy.
On the other hand, it shows us the evolution of culture because this slangs were peculiar to the Afro-Americans and other subjugated sections of the society.
CIAO mates!
Nima zan daga, ina fatan dai ban zama tasmi gaye ba.
When a girl or boy is
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 'ajiye bota'
(literal translation 'Put down butter' ) it means a pampered ?boy/girl.
Then there is
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ' a daki rice'.
It means to eat rice especially at gidan biki, because main menu is always rice at gidan biki. I got the second one from my bro when he was teasing ?my sisters who were dressing to go to gidan biki.
Then my mischievous nephews coined a phrase " 'yar madara and 'yar koko" to describe two girls who came from ?different economic backgrounds!
Then for students there is
the 'Bukateria'
as opposed to the 'Cafeteria'
A boy trying to chat up a girl is trying to 'tune' her.
'Nayi "waje road" da shi' = I threw him out!
Nice one Ummul ;)
If we see a guy & we think he is kinda cute
we go: "Kai maigidannan da na hangiz is bazook"
& If he is not cute (Allah na tuba)
we go: That boy na ogedey
If something is way outrageous, suprising or unbelivable
we go: SHOW!!
If pessin dey disturb you
we go: Dan kashin ko yar kashin gwiwa
If you no get money & you wan beg indirectly
we go; Baba akwai stash, or mhmm yar aljuhulle tai kasalle
If hungry
we say; hunger dey strike my belle or inajin yar gusau
If wuna get glutton for wuna house or mai cin tsiya
make wuna titul di pessin
