Nigerians are really stu-pid people and they think disliking anything white means they're not dealing with inferiority complex.

They're never happy with anything, no sense of comending anyone.

75% of the people posting here can hardly speak correct English. They were brought up in a country where one of the official language is English, yet they can't speak it. Even our first lady cant speak English with her Igbotic EngRish.

The girl studied hard, tried hard to learn another language and she succeeded. How easy is it to learn a new language? Psychologically, at the after the age of 10, it's not so easy to learn a new language.

These same garbage Nigerians would be impressed anytime they meet a Nigerian that can speak French, German, Spanish etc. Why? Because to learn a new language so fluently is not so easy. It takes hard work and determination. It takes months of practice, learning new words, syntax, phonemes, and structuring those words together in a sensible sentence is not easy either. And to make it harder, speaking those words in their correct accent.

Nigerians will continue to deal with inferiority complex. A while ago, Igbos were congratulating themselves because of their ability to speak more than one languages, Hausas fro speaking Yoruba, and Yorubas for speaking Hausa. Now a white woman does the same thing and they're saying "so what"?

So you think congratulating the woman means you're dealing with IC? What about abusing her just because she's white? You guys have your mentality displaced.


Why not speak correct English before bashing another person for learning a language she was not born around? Shameless people.

her name is titilayo- so im guessing shes nigerian. the only thing that makes it a big deal to me is if she was born and bred abroad. Unfortunately parents dont feel the need to teach thier children yoruba. . . . . well done titi


no she's not nigerian. she was born and bred in USA. she studied yoruba classes and journalism in college. she chose yoruba out of her interest in african studies. she chose the name titilayo. her real name is cara harshman. i give her kudos for her zeal to learn about africa in a world that constantly degrades anything african

Its quite possible she's not telling the whole story and she might have some history in nigeria through her ancestors.

As in, she may have ancestors who lived in nigeria ages or centuries ago.

Ancestors in nigeria??
The only white ancestors she might have in nigeria were the ones who were selling africans as slaves to the new world
Re: Titilayo :: The White Girl Tha Speaks Yoruba Fluently by Nobody: 11:48pm On May 16, 2011
^^ The way you put it, makes it sound like you're also blaming her for slave-trade.
It's funny that those same slaves are now well-to-do basketball players, etc

Not at all i am not blaming her for the slave.Tpia was saying she might have had ancestors in nigeria and i just replied that if that was true then it was probably her ancestors were slave traders.Its a fact that most europeans only came to africa at that period for slaves.Anyway thts off topic.

Some Jews were slave merchants during the transatlantic slave trade.


And I'm not sure she's necessarily Jewish. (Maybe you're assuming she is because of her nose and hair color?).  I had a friend in high school who everybody thought looked Jewish, but it turned out he wasn't.

Also, she's a bit ugly (in my opinion). When I saw her face, the last thing I expected was to find out that anyone was hitting on her.

I'm not sure if she's white or not, but I've seen many white chicks that looks like that.

Why dont you ask her for her DNA sample on FB, make we get down to the koko of this matter.

Yeah I knew about the Jewish merchants. Actually there is a place in the Caribs were a lot of the people are descendants of these merchants. I was hoping no one would notice so that I could call someone stooooopid grin. You are kind of disturbing my insults PhysicsMHD.

She is Jewish. Her name further confirms it. http://www.4crests.com/harshman-coat-of-arms.html

Maybe your friend was denying it? grin

Nah she is Ok, yeah not physically attractive or anything but at least she can make pounded yam. That would do for most of us.
Re: Titilayo :: The White Girl Tha Speaks Yoruba Fluently by Nobody: 2:18am On May 17, 2011
Sefago,that white lady looks very much like an English girl.take for example she has a set of buck teeth and british women are known for having buck teeth.Could be her ancestors came from England and nope she does not look Jewish.So its obvious u are the one who is stupid cheesy

Yeah but there are distinctive features. Ask PhysicsMHD because I am not gonna say them  cheesy. I am kind of PC.

Well still on the chat level. We havent gotten to the DNA part yet, but instead of going that far I would be a bit more direct and ask her.  grin
