Seriously, what's with the fake American accents . They are presenting to a Nigeria audience and not American audience, why change your accent? It's getting annoying. Some even make use of the accent when speaking pidgin English, Smh 12 Likes |

If you dont like the accent of the people you are spying on, then ask your boss to give you another assignment- maybe someone with a nigerian or carribean accent. James bond wannabe, how pathetic. |

As much as i agree with you to an extent, I'd also add that they try to speak with diction which is the correct way of pronunciation. 10 Likes |

Fake accents thread bore me on nairaland cos it seems u guys mistake good English and right pronunciation for fake accent. They are trying to pronounce words d way dey ought to be pronounced and u guys are here hating. I'm sure y'all will stil complain if they use thick naija accent. Fake una free dem joorr. 26 Likes |

I guess it has to do with the fact that we as Nigerians are still yet to appreciate our heritage. The fact that you speak with a foreign accent doesn't make you posh, it only means your are confused. 4 Likes |

I think it has to do with inferiority complex. Some think without the American accent, they cant be good presenters |
