Chinedu

Chinedu is the perfect boyfriend. A ladies man, and probably the only guy that Amaka never disappoints. Usually sweet, sensible, smart, full of charisma, loving, teasing and naughty. He is a no-nonsense person and someone you could count on. His loyalty is never in question.

A guy that is outgoing and friendly. Everyone knows of him but he keeps very few close friends. He can be a really shy person at first, might take some time for you to get to know him, but once you become friends, you'll never regret it.

A bit annoying sometimes but in a good way. He is crazy and fun to be with. He can make you laugh all day. He seems brave, but a very sensitive guy.

Chinedu strives to do things for the better, hardly selfish, observant and family oriented. Once you find a Chinedu you'll love him always. Absolutely amazing guy.

Ibo

An English corruption of the word "Igbo" (used to describe an ethnic group of people living chiefly in South Eastern Nigeria). This is largely due to the English man's poor attempt at articulating the "gb" bilabial in Igbo.

Kowatiate

When someone says something unclear, you can ask them to provide more detail, by asking them to expand or offer more explanation. By so doing, they are kowatiating. Also spelled kowaciate. Pronounced as /kɒwaʃıeıt/.
