I Am Confused! by Malc(m): 7:22am On Sep 25, 2017
Good morning nairalanders, I am Malc by name.

I am sorry to bore you with a little bit of an issue i and my siblings seem to have.

I hail from SE nigeria (where most of you refer to as the biafran enclave). I with all my siblings were born around lagos, been around lag for about 75% of my life.

Here is why i wrote this piece. I and my siblings find it difficult to speak our dialect i.e igbo also(yoruba #Birthdialect) but we understand 70% or more of both languages. Anytime we try speaking it, it doesn't seem to work speechwise and i think it a problem in a setting as Nigeria where...

I would like to know if someone here has sometime had an issue like this and how he/she managed to change it.

The solution is to start speaking irrespective of mistakes you might make...you'll get the hang of it in a long run

It is a Nigeria factor. In fact an Africa factor. We are losing our identity to the western world.
