FFK like af0nja men are known to peg their achievement based on women who they claim to have bedded without proof while in real sense, they masturbate over in fantasy. The only holes af0nja men successfully drill are that of minors and goats like your cousin Taiwo Oluwa who was caught humping one some years back.

Chei this one pain my yoruba muslim skull eh!

So you mean we yorubas fuckkk goats while our fulani herdsmen masters fuckkk cows which is higher than goats? grin

Guess you haven't been to the north.
Was in Kano 2008 when i visited my Sis. She was then a student of Kano state college of education. I sat almost an hour in her class and understood nothing; cos the mallam teaching barely speaks english.

So what's your point, did you like the fact that you didn't understand him and he was supposed to speak a general language so everyone can understand? This is why the North is behind in everything. Please no offense to Northern people but they drag us back all the time. We need to divide

An office is an official place and should be treated as such. English is the official language of Nigeria,so it's the acceptable means of communication.
Imagine walking into an office for an assignment and the secretary is speaking her own tribal language which you don't understand

What's stopping the black race from making our own local languages from bein one of the official language within their states? If you choose to reside in a state then you should also try and respect and appreciate your host local language or else, it's better you move out of the state if you're not ready to respect the local language.

That's why I like the northerners, especially the hausa's, Kanuris and the Fulanis. They don't joke with their language.

You are correct. One of the reasons why i don't like this inter tribal marriage of a thing is because the mode of communication in the house would be English and once that happens, it won't be possible for the children to understand and speak their native dialect.

But when you marry from your tribe and mode of communication at home is native, then it will definitely be easy for the children. All my children by God's grace must have ibibio names and they must speak and understand the dialect.

Because the yorubas do that doesn't make it right. An office is an office and as long as English is our official language, it should be used in that space. You can speak your language anywhere else.

Forget that inter tribal marriage -ish, it depends on how you both decide to raise your kids. There are pure Yoruba homes that the kids speak only English.

English as an office language should be the standard norms of any organisation. I have no issue with that bro. As for inter tribal marriage, i still stand by what I wrote that i don't encourage it anyway. Yes you are correct about families that got married to their own tribe but the children can't speak their native dialect be it yoruba or the same akwa-ibom.

It's all about what mostly the man wants and support from the wife. If I get married to my fellow ibibio lady that understands and speaks the language fluently, i see no reason why English language should be the mode of communication in my house. Even though my native dialect won't be used 24/7 but it will be majorly adopted.

To me what he said is enough.
If he said more, people will say he's envious of the commissioner. Or out on a vendetta.

What he said is enough for the commissioner to change his attitude and indeed all public officers.

On the other hand, Igbo people being some of the most ardent travelers, the said commissioner might be a diaspora Igbo who can barely speak Igbo.
You have a point Sir, a good point.

You don't know what you're saying.

Nigerian Constitution says English and the 3 major Nigerian languages shall be the official languages. It says National Assembly may adopt any Nigerian language for communication during any of their sitting, if they agree to do so.

There is no offence in that, once all the parties involved understand one another.

Lagos House of Assembly set a day aside in a week in which Yoruba language is used during their session.

And you think it's a good thing for a lecturer to be teaching in Hausa when the official language is English? What happens to others like you who aren't Hausa? How would they cope or you would be forced to learn it even if you are not interested in doing so? I'm sorry to say this but this is partly the reason why people from such areas perform below par relative to others due to conflict of interest.
They perform below and they take over every aspect of government.
Make you na sidon there dey speak English.
yeye.

God bless you. Our official language is English. No tribal sentiments. That commissioner deserves some accolades. Tribal bigots everywhere.

Nigeria has remained a sh!thole because of the likes of you. You can make mediocrity your hallmark and expect to compete with countries that encourage excellence. Yes, they take over every aspect of government and ruin everything in the process while you people like you support them yet still cry that Nigeria is now a useless place.
Iberiberism!

I am not in Enugu. Even in Lagos, Yoruba is the lingua franca in offices. Only in Eastern states can you hear few people speak Igbo in the office.( though not professional).
I was not talking about Lagos I was talking about Enugu, and when I mean 99% I mean virtually everybody speaks Igbo even in offices you can't dispute that bro,talk about where you know

Nonsense! Because you can't speak English doesn't mean you can perform very well in your duty. Can you tell us anyone in any govt ministry or agency that doesn't have the required qualification?

That's what white people convinced our ancestors to believe during colonialism!.

The right language an Igbo official should speak in Igbo land should be Igbo language. That's how it ought to be.

It's time to get out of the box.


I see you speaking your truth...
Beautiful cool
Mental slavery, a tight vise round our collective psyches, we need to use our God given intelligence (the ability to unlearn/ deleearn and relearn, I am glad people like you exist)

Good day my sister. We will free ourselves and rule the world eventually, but it will take time.
