Ginger is one of the Nigeria slang that musicians used to mean encouragement. Omo Naija simply means one is a bonifide citizens of Nigeria. Gabe body e came about as the result how the economy situation is and one must not doll him or herself in whatever he is doing. E get reason is a slang the went viral as we all know that before someone do something, reason must be there. Shine your eye simply means be at alert or else you will be dupe. No gree for anybody is the current Naija slang that we should not give up on whatsoever we are doing because we must all succeed this year, come what may with God by our side.
