in npc •  7 years ago  (edited)

 Beautiful university of Nigeria Nsukka (UNN) Library 

Hello steemians, happy new week from @ogoowinner


I guess some of you might be wondering what language I used for my topic. Well, it is called broken English, also known as Nigerian pidgin. It is largely spoken in all the Anglophone West African nations. 

Here in Nigeria, more than English, most of us love pidgin and we use as our lingua franca. 

This challenge for our pidgin lovers. I hope you get to understand it and share the fun. 

My Naija people o, I dey hail una. 

I been talk for my last post say we go start our pigin challenge. We go dey do am in different categories. Sometimes me or another person go write for English then the rest of us go translate am to pidgin.

For this challenge eh, everybody na winner o! 

How we go dey take do am 


Every Monday and Saturday go be our pidgin challenge days. E fit come in as say make we translate something or make we just yarn something for pidgin. 

We go always use this tag for our posts #npc (E mean; Naija Pidgin Challenge)

No forget to add the Nigerian tag for your posts o! 

Your post no go dey less than hundred words.

Add picture and description of one fine naija site or person for your post. 

I go dey try my best to always visit una entries. 

So our challenge for today na; make una tell us why una like steemit. 

See my own entry

I like steemit well well because the thing don change my life big time. 

Before I join dem for here eh, Twinkas show me wee. In fact dem pour pepper inside my eyes. Dem carry broom sweep my house just as APC dey do us now. No be only dem o, even gethelp and giversforum join show me shagey. 

But as I join this place eh, everything con change. E no dey easy o, because e get the time wey we dey write sef, we no dey get anything. 

Another thing wey make me like this place be say, e dey help person develop ein sef. I don get plenty plenty experience from here. Even how to make money, maintain good relationship and plenty other things sha. 

The last one be say, as e be say I be dat kind shy person sef,  I no too get friends before o, but this place don make me get plenty  friends, including plenty children wey I don be their mama sef. Lol! 

When I dey cry 3 days ago, na @ehiboss call me dey comfort me sef. All my people for ogoowinner winners forum and my people here show me plenty love. If to say I no dey here na, na who for do all these things for me? My people, I hail una again. 

Na these things and many more make dis place dey totori my body. 

I'll use the opportunity to appreciate all of you who spared your time to  comfort me here as regards to my uncle's death. I say a big "Thank You"  to all of you. 

I'll also like to announce the  winner of the liquid payout for that post. @nmalove helped to pick the winner. The liquid payout will go to @steem-lagos as a contribution to save a little girl's life.
