Not a big deal. I think you should listen to Vladimir Putin the president of Russia or Kim Jong-un the president of North Korea when they speak or give public addresses, then you'll know buhari's english is better. The fact that buhari has a poor accent doesn't mean he can't speak good english.
PDP followers just be hating on buhari anyhow.

Ride on baba. May Amadiona soda ur yash Putin spoke Russian language buhari is from english country Nigeria so Putin 'will not care to speak English , Russians planes built for Russians the manual is in Russian language unless for export one which they can add English unless u people want to tell me there is a plane built by abooki which made buhari to be speaking like people from mali

there is something you need to understand, english is now a universal language, those countries i mentioned have their language as their primary language but they are also learning english becausd that's what the world understands generally. now buhari's primary language is also not english but he also learnt it as it has now become a neccesity to understand english. now my point is buhari, vladimir putin and kim jong-un primary languages are not english but they have their respective languages but they all have to learn english, so why castigate buhari for having a poor accent?

Well, you can't blame anyone for castigating the old man, cos this is simply appalling. This is the president with the worst accent Nigeria has ever had and it's totally unsettling. People are simply expressing their shock. It is simply shocking that when your president addresses you on TV, you will be struggling to grasp what he's saying. Most people can't make out 80 percent of what he's saying, if you're truthful to yourself you'll concur with that fact.

English is Nigeria's official language and the president must speak intelligible English.

I really don't like replying people on nairaland, but it's obvious ypu need some enlightenment so you don't keep on wallowing in ignorance.

What's the official language in Russia?
What's the official language in North Korea?

For your information, Russian language is spoken in virtually all the CIS countries, some parts of China and some other Slavic countries. So why should Putin know or learn how to speak English? In addition, Vladmir Putin is among the top in the World in terms of oratory skills, and He also speaks German fluently.

The same thing goes with North Korea, is English their official language? why should you compare them to Buhari why has been living in an English speaking country for over 70 years.

I can't even believe your post was able to get over 100 likes.

P.S.
I support president Buhari and wish him well. I don't even mind if he has an accent.
I couldn't just stand the ignorance being propagated.

igbos are the most greedy and selfish set of people I've ever see. They occupied Jonathan's regime, and were kleptomanically busy looting Nigerian's treasury. They are now Power busy screaming biafra because Power has changed hand for few years. Very inconsiderate, selfish and insatiable sad souls. They want everything to themselves alone, that was why they planned the very first blood-letting coup in January 1966, it backfired and got Millions of them killed yet they didn't learn their lesson. Search for the real History of the first coup in Nigeria on Youtube.
In every hood, u folks hold shu-shu meeting like u r kind of endangered species. Sad souls, indeed u igbos r endangered, because every body HATES incorrigibly greedy people.

I don't know how some people could be senseless, do you expect him to flush away his mother tongue because he wants to speak English or what or does the accent means hes is not speaking good English? GET SOME SENSE BRO. SOME OF YOU MIGHT NOT EVEN KNOW HOW TO SPEAK GOOD ENGLISH LIKE HIM.

Nonsense, bcus English is an official language does mean is our father's tongue. We love all there foreign import more than ours. Same with our religion. Maybe we should make english our second language as a matter of pride, we can choose to speak wrongly if that happen, proper speaking queens language is not a sign of intelligence, just look at the richest people of the world. Stay with your oppressors language, but don't insult ppl bcus they didnt speak you master's language well.
