How Do You Feel About This New Google Naija In Pidgin English by peren: 9:47am On Nov 11, 2016
I recently noticed the new Google Naija, where everything is described in pidgin English, I am not quite sure how it makes me feel. It is confusing some times, because no one writes pidgin English we only speak it, and still there are some people who do not know how to speak it talk less of reading it. I also think it may confuse children, and new learners of English, at the same time Pidgin is actually the only language that's ours(Nigerian) that everyone in the country can relate to. Am I alone in this confused feeling? What do you guys think about it.

And yes I know there is the option of changing language, but it seems like what comes up by default on my computer.

I know we are not the only country that speaks pidgin English, but i do think there are differences in the different pidgins.
