This is an article from the incoming Nigerian car Magazine; Carvolution scheduled for release by the 4th week of May 2018.
Nigerians
have been known to rechristen their favourite cars local names which are
usually renewed every generation or midlife refresh of the cars. Practically
all cars (excuse my exaggeration) have a local name given to it. Some names
like “ Honda Baby boy” are prominent in the South, some others like “Panadol
extra” are prominent in the North but a few of them like the “End of
discussion” and “Evil spirit” have managed to gain popularity all over the
country. We made a research about this topic and compiled a list based on our
results.
Is there any names we didn't mention? leave them in
the comment section.
