Christening is an all-important part of the Nigerian culture as the names parents- and grandparents- pick for a child usually have deep meaning. However, regardless of the actual meaning of a name, Nigerian pop culture associates certain characteristics of people with their names. For instance, Folake is usually mentioned in reference to love, while Karo is well known for her sexploits.
But what about Halita, Wura and Tobi?
Bhadmus H’akeem has compiled a listicle of what these names really mean.
