Use of English does not determine the level of intelligence. If you visit some countries in Europe or Asia you will see a lot of brilliant and intelligent professionals in various fields that speaks and write terribly but that does not mean they're not up to task in their specializations. If you are well travelled you will get used to ignoring grammatical blunders (ignore mine�) I don't know why Nigerians are so addicted to English Language.... It's only in Nigeria that they will doubt the competence of a doctor or an engineer because of his/her use of English. You can study these courses in other languages too... This shouldn't trend at all

I quite agree with you to an extent...but English language happens to be our lingua franca and for the lecturer to rise to the pinnacle of undergraduate coordinator...bro...his flaws cannot be overlooked

I agree with you. Even though India has the second highest population of English speakers in the world yet they still didn't dive away from their language. That's why thousands of Nigerians troops to India to seek medical care every year ( We wey sabi English well)

I'm not disputing that fact but if you look closely you will notice that we Nigerians attach too much importance to Use of English....It's important though but not the determinant of intelligence....Maybe it will come as a surprise to you that a lot of Native English speakers can speak but can't write
SmartyPants:


Sir, English is the National language of Nigeria. If you went through school from primary school to University learning in English and you still don't speak good English then are we to imagine that you understood what you were learning all along?

This defence of mediocrity is pathetic. Those countries that don’t speak English well, don’t because English is NOT their national language. I would have thought that this basic fact is known to you.


Don’t be silly in the attempt to defend mediocrity.

TruthinAction:


Stupid comments endorsed by people like you to excuse your shortcoming. Then he should have written it in a language he is good at and ask someone to translate it to English. This is the reason this country is backward.

The electoral act should stipulate a minimum of Master degree both for governorship, presidential and senatorial positions in future elections.

We are tired of dullards ruling us.

You are talking about none English speaking countries, this person obviously studied in nigeria and must have been taught with English Language. The Said University he’s occupying a position at learns in English Language. So your attempt to be smart is actually proving otherwise.

i agree with you though I have some reservations. lets look at this way sir, In a Country like Nigeria, English is a subject taught almost throughout all the levels of education. If one cannot atleast write a letter in a simple correct English that he/she learnt throughout his/her different stages of education, that says a lot about whatever degree acquired

The attached, is a letter written by a senior staff of School Post Graduate studies (Diploma), Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, that has been trending in the social media.

The letter, dated and signed by one Mohammed D. Nasir, the course coordinator, in favour of a youth Corp's member, infact has a lot to tell the world that something is really wrong with our education system.

A course coordinator in the "almighty" Ahmadu Bello University, appending his signature to a badly written letter, without reading or really read it, yet despatched same as having been rightly written?

Please, read this letter and let's hear your opinion on same.
IT IS A FAKE LETTER!!!THE NMA KATSINA IS CURRENTLY TRAILING THE GUY THAT HAS BEEN PARADING HIMSELF AS A DOCTOR.

Look how tribal bigots stormed the thread not knowing ABU has students and lecturers from their zones. 50 as cut-off mark? Silly dimwitted souls.
Some of you that have proclivity in sorting your lecturers can't survive ABU.
Can you guys speak English more than Sir Ahmadu Bello?
Even the recent Enactus competition, where were your bush schools when ABU students performed well if not for the bias judges.

You are very wrong sir.

I have worked in the North before and I have seen very brilliant Northern Professionals.

Northern Medical undergraduates regularly win prizes in NIMSA competitions, their Professionals like Prof Sheu Umaru and Prof Sabitu are shining lights in West African College of Physicians (WACP).



Obainoneandonly:
the good ones there can only be compared with the regular ones here....if they are good, they are good by their own standards because their educational standard can't be compared with ours in all ramifications ,and they tend to hide it from us....... You hardly see them schooling here or even sending dem down here for NYSC......they only go for government jobs because they know they can't contend with a southerner in the private sector........dats d bitter truth bro

As I have said earlier, if you are referring to a person who schooled in a non English speaking country or who’s first and second language is not English it is different. This person does not prove that, as a matter of fact you will agree with me that every Nigerian second language is English as widely adopted from our primary schools up until Universities. What has this person been learning with to get to such an exalted position?

Silence is golden in most cases , but sometimes u speak out in order to change the narrative. I always tell people that it isn't about the school oh,it's the STUDENT that matters.....
