Agbirigba
text:
Agbirigba is a cant based on the Ogbakiri dialect of the Nigerian language Ikwerre of Port Harcourt. There are about thirty speakers, from a persecuted section of the community. Agbirigba is unintelligible to other speakers of Ikwerre, but the rule for its derivation is simple: the consonant t is added before every CV syllable. Some speakers add an epenthetic vowel to break up the resulting consonant cluster.
