skabashing 

This word is mostly used by Nigerians to explain that they or someone else is speaking in tongues. Especially to describe the kinds of language Christians utilize when they start to pray in spiritual tongues that they cannot comprehend.
Mum and dad will start skabashing. I disliked these prayer sessions a lot. I couldn't even see whomever we were talking to.

So several times I have gone into the exam hall just skabashing, hoping that miracle will happen.

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
