How Toyin Afolayan "Lola idije" started the slang "soroke werey" before it went viral

Veteran Nollywood actress, Toyin Afolayan better known as Lola Idije has been credited with coining the popular ‘soro soke’ slang taking over Nigeria’s social media.

The Nigerian social media space is one that is usually made very fun and interesting with the use of slangs that youths can identify with.

Currently on Nigerian social media, a slang seems to be making waves and it is the ‘soro soke’ lingo.

The lingo seemed to get more popularity during the EndSARS protests that rocked many states in Nigeria. Youths use it to know who showed support for the cause or those hiding their true intention with flowery words. Soro Soke literally means ‘speak up’.

A number of people on social media have now credited veteran Nollywood actress, Toyin Afolayan aka Lola Idije, as the originator of the slang.

He wrote:
