Abstract
The conceptual and contextual study of the terms Bakassi and 419 in Nigeria are either scanty or even lacking in modern African scholarship. Although some scholars have written on Bakassi, they mainly focused on the aspects of the Peninsula and international conflict resolution. Also, literature on the contextual description of the numeric 419 is also very scanty in African scholarship except for a few who have approached it mostly from the perspective of cyber security. Using the exposition approach, this present essay, therefore, aims at showing various perspectives of the word Bakassi in Nigeria on the one hand and the local description of the numeric 419 in Nigeria, on the other hand. This will contribute to knowledge in the aspect of the conceptual and contextual meaning of Bakassi and 419 in the African lexicology.
