University of Lagos was named Moshud Abiola University Of Lagos and there was a protest. Thanks to God for the success, if not, Some people would be students of MAULAG now..... what an Impertubably Lugubrious pronunciation.

Naming Higher institutions after heroes I not my problem. My Problem is the abbreviation that follows after.....

Imagine Naming University of Ibadan after "Gbadamosi Adeyinka"... which will make it Gbadamosi Adeyinka University......

The abbreviation is "GAU".... which is a bad word situation in Yoruba language.....

..... Jambite would be like "Mo to wo GAU" I have been admitted.....

....Imagine you are in a Church and a Lady is giving testimony about his admission into "GAU"

...She will be like...... help me praise God o.... I just entered GAU......

..... Please our Governments should think about abbreviation o.....

...Anyone here want admission to "GAU"
lol.

You don't understand I hadn't the luxury of learning Yoruba in school because most of my classmates were of extraction moreover pidgin and vernacular were never allowed (sounds nice but that's uncool)... I only know phrases and greetings like ba wo ni? bebe nlo? kilo de? shofe kun hahaha,etc I can't hold a fluent convo in Yoruba it hurts, I really want to,everybody just dey form for this Lekki,Ajah side,I grew up in Surulere Suburbs, Coker,Aguda,Bode-Thomas,Palmgroove and Eric Moore axis to be pinpoint accurate and anybody familiar with this areas will agree with me that main Yoruba is spoken within Baale street axis of Orile and I wasn't given such freedom to explore...learning it online is my only option now...BTW I no dey enter market,someone does that.

Just stay away from hard core area! Make friend with people, in fact there many Igbo folks that can speak Yoruba very fluent to point that you may miostake them For Son of the Soil. Just find dependable folks to connect with. grin grin grin grin

Ahan! I grew up around Palmgrove axis and there are lots of people that speaks the language around here..

To learn it is easy, you need friends that are fluent and not shy to speak the language in public (Some misguided people think that its uncool to speak your native language in public).. I speak my language anywhere and encourage people to speak them to my kids.

You might need to visit the markets once in while to relate with those traders. Then practice, practice practice.. people are gonna laugh and some will correct you to make you speak it better. Personally, i laugh and correct.
