I find it puzzling that Supersports retains his services even though there is nothing exceptional about the analysis he gives with his subpar command of English.

It is ok for poorly educated guys like Ikpeba,Amokachi etc to make wrong use of words intermittently. When it comes to skills, ball sense, and game interpretation, you know they have made excellent contributions globally. It is you that have problem with Language, these guys are professors in their fields.

OP isn't crying about Ikpeba's grammar, if anything it is a source of amusement. So save your defense of the grammatically challenged for something else.
Re: Victor Ikpeba And His Grammar Skills On TV by Nobody: 12:55pm On Apr 17, 2012
Victor Ikpeba was a great footballer but he certainly is a below average football analyst.
Apart from his poor English and poor pronunciation of words,he fails to be professional in his analysis of football matches.
It is so easy to notice that he is completely biased towards anything concerning Manchester United and totally obsessed with them.
On the other hand his co analyst Segun Agbede is so pro united that the two of them succeed in turning the sports chat segment into a battle between two football fans just lucky to speak into a microphone.
Next season Supersports need to up their game and get professionals to run that segment of the programme,or better leave us to watch the original analysis from the EPL studios abroad.
Right now Victor and Segun are an insult to all premium subscription holders on DSTV.
Whenever they come on I just turn down the volume of my TV set.

Shina Peters said 'grammar no be success' when he made his famous, i wish him soonest recover' sometimes in the 90s and he is today very okay materially and more polished grammatically. Victor should take a cue from this and improve his English language construction ability rather than be trying to speak like the English themselves. Come to think of it, he never played in a purely English-speaking country if my memory serves me right; he played in Belgium and France!!

As far as broadcasting goes...Victor should not be on TV.

I've expressed my opinion on an older thread.
If you don't like Ikpeba,listen to Sammy Kuffour.
I love Ikpeba's confidence but his English kills me,mahn.
Re: Victor Ikpeba And His Grammar Skills On TV by Emylexray(m): 1:18pm On Apr 17, 2012
Abeg let the guy be!..i don't know why we Nigerians can never be proud of our own, he and Daniel are being chosen to analyse on supersport based on their rich profile as Nigerian's ex-footballers i guess, and not soley on their grammatical eloquence. Like odiero said, he is making cool money with his not-too-good English while you are still under your momma's roof feeding on garri and epa everyday with your immaculate and ''flawless'' English. Mtcheew.

You dey mind them? Nigerians are probably the most detestable nitpickers in the world. Always making a complete mockery of themselves while purporting to mock others. Ikpeba is an accomplished footballer, and his stature as a successful footballer (and former African Footballer of the Year, for that matter) eminently qualifies him to be a football pundit. Even if his English is not as impeccable as some fastidious nitpickers expect, he certainly passes his message across in a manner that is sufficiently clear.

It must take a whole lot of self-pity and insecurity to seek validation by opening a thread to impugn people on account of how poor you think their grammar is. This is extremely ridiculous, especially because these impugned people are all-too-often more accomplished than their faceless detractors would ever be. It is even more ridiculous because the nitpickers' grammar is typically worse than that of the individual they criticise shamelessly.

personally, as long i get the message that is being conveyed or passed acrossed, i don't bloody care how you say it. I think that's what is called ''communication''
