| Abstract: | Hate speech is a derogatory language usage that is capable of causing social disharmony and is used against a group or an individual based on their class, such as gender, religion, or race. If unchecked, it may plunge the country into chaos and violence and truncate the peace and unity of a country. In Nigeria, acidic hate speech always manifests during electioneering periods. Scholarly attention has not been given to the new nature and trends in hate speech. This research, therefore, investigated the new nature of hate speech in the country using a random sampling of online (Facebook and Twitter-X) recorded hate speech before, during, and after the 2023 general elections in Nigeria. Relevance Theory and Ethnography of Communication Theory were adopted for the analysis, focusing on the novelty of the expressions and their sociolinguistic backgrounds. The analysis was both descriptive and qualitative in nature. The research found that analogies, neologisms, coinages, blending, ironies, rewordings, allusions, epithets, slogans, and metaphors were the methods Nigerians used to create new words that connote hate speech. Such expressions as zombidients, obidiots, yes daddy, certificate forger, drug baron, Atiefku, and a host of others were created and used before and after the election with the aim of denigrating or derogating and making the targeted subjects of the expressions unpopular. The research recommended that the government and other relevant agencies should curb the perpetration of hate speeches in the country. |
