Dauda Mistura You might call it 'Ashewo’ or 'ashawo' but in whatever case  the term is derived and adopted by Nigerians over time to describe a person as a 'slut' ‘hoe' or ‘prostitute'.  Relatively, This word is reserved for women in general. It is sometimes used in careless arguments or alterations involving women or even in random situations.  In Lagos, an Hausa bike man or an aged Yoruba bike man can call you an ashewo for not having change, the woman selling pepper down the street can call you an ashawo for wearing a bum shorts and a sleeveless top  and ignorantly, a guy might call you ashawo for rejecting his advances.
