+This dataset evaluates frontier open-weight language models on Nigerian Pidgin English comprehension, a blind spot not captured bystandard NLP benchmarks.
 
 
 
-Nigerian Pidgin is spoken by over 120 million people across WestAfrica and serves as the most common lingua franca in Nigeria. Itis not a dialect of English; it has distinct grammar, vocabulary,and pragmatics. Standard NLP benchmarks (MMLU, XCOPA, AfriMLU) donot include Nigerian Pidgin. A model that scores well on thesebenchmarks may fail completely when a Nigerian user asks a questionin Pidgin, which is how many Nigerians actually communicate.

 Question 1: The Blind Spot
 
-The blind spot is Nigerian Pidgin English comprehension. From mylived experience in Nigeria, Pidgin is the language of the market,the danfo bus, the hospital waiting room, and the informal economy.An AI system deployed in Nigeria that cannot understand Pidgin isnot accessible to the majority of the population, regardless ofits English or Yoruba performance.

-This blind spot is underexplored because African NLP researchfocuses on indigenous African languages (Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo,Swahili) and treats Pidgin as a dialect of English rather than adistinct language with its own grammar and vocabulary.
