what's cool about this video is how fluent and somewhat proficient this oyinbo bobo be with pidgin English considering he's a foreigner.

on the other hand, what i find not only uncool but distasteful is the naija guy in the background trying too hard to talk like an American. 

cursing and carrying on like it's cool.  here we have a foreigner embracing our culture while this American-wanna-be is making a darn fool of himself trying to
sound American despite hin thick naija accent.  *shakes head in disbelief* some people sha. . .    olodo buruku!

Nigerians suffer from serious inferiority complex. Them plenty for U.k and i am sure in the U.s trying so hard to force the accent. Many times i just laugh " see this agege bush boy or with trying to blow phonetics" . One thing they dont know it sounds awful.

Why dont you just speak clear english.

The differnce btw the oyinbo and American Naija wanabe

oyinbo - na natural flow no stressing - he grew up in nIgeria


American Niaja wanabe - he grow up in Nigeria - the accent was not natural it is down to stressing your vocals lol

obviously, you're missing the point here!  and since that's the case, let me help you out cause i know some of us are that slow.

what i pointed out was someone trying to be who he's not.  in other words, he could have stuck with the pidgin english he was speaking in the beginning
rather than trying to sound like an american instead of a nigerian, which we all should be proud to be in the first place.

what's more, he was even cursing for no apparent reason all for the sake of trying to sound american, which is not cool.  an average american (regardless of the race)
doesn't go around cursing and thinks that's cool.  No, that's not cool! that's being GHETTO!

why you had to interject race into this still baffles me.  i guess to you, pointing out something that's inappropriate and unnecessary makes that person an "oyinbo ass-licker" abi?  {shakes head}

what a moronic statement!  na only on NL sha. . . 


busi-bodi:

and that was how africa was colonised; gulliblity!

and what has gullibility have to do with this. . .i'm curious to know your reasoning behind that remark.

While I don't agree totally with all you've said, I get ur logic.

An American speaking with a Nigerian accent- Everybody loves it. Its so cool!
A Nigerian speaking with an American Accent- Everybody hates it. Says he is a sell out!

Everybody gets influenced by the environment he resides. Since the white boy got influenced by the Nigeria accent, whats wrong if the black guy gets influenced by the American accent soince he resides there.

Re: Nigerian White Boy Speaking Pidgin English - Enjoy by Akpangbon: 9:16am On May 07, 2009
Stupid fellas -

do you guys think at all? If a black man speaks in the American Language with the American Accent, you guys will nail him, you will say he has lost his culture and is copying the Americans, but hey, this white dude now speaks in pidgin english and you make a hue and cry as if he has done something out of the ordinary, I am not surprised, its all part of the white supremacy thing - if he likes let him speak in my Ekiti mother tongue, who foking cares?
