My dear Edo people; Its argument, not 'ajument'. My dear Yorubas; Its Air, not 'hair'. Eight, not 'hate'. Its Van Persie, not 'Fan Persin'. My dear Ibadan peeps; Its not 'sun tissu', its Sean Tizzle! Its not 'siro' but zero! My dear Hausa people Its fifty, not 'pipty'. Its people, not 'fiffle'. Its five, not 'pipe'. Glo, not 'gilo'! Seriously it is 'Tuface weds Annie Macauley', stop saying 'Toothpaste weds Animal calling'. My Egun people; Its actually 'MTN' and not 'NTM'!
