UnknownQueen:wearing make up and putting on a trouser is fashion except you are exposing the sensitive parts of your body that's supposed to be private.... That said,concerning that of your parents,as long you are still under them,you obey them and their rules,but when you are on your own,you can do as you wish,but not what will damage you 1 Like |

Tycyborg: She has an accent. That is not is not necessarily the same thing as not being able to speak the English language. President Buhari also has a heavy Hausa accent but you cannot say he does not know how to speak English! |

suffering: And so what? It is only here in Nigeria that people think you're an automatic failure just cos you do not have a university degree! Just so you know I'm a university graduate with a chartered accountant's certificate but I would never look down on a person just cos he did not go to a university! |

Kobicove: Let's be frank with ourselves... I am not saying she should t have an accent all I am saying is comparing it with C.ronaldo is bad and trust me if you have an accent and still claim you went to school then definitely you failed english in a big way cos in school they taught us sillables and phonetic sounds in english so we can pronounce words accordingly but due to we communicate with parents and so on in the hood most of our words still comes out like a Nigerian way of calling things to let them understand better but you having an accent is a failure in english... This is the undiluted truth. I am not against any one politically and I am not tribalist but just stating the fact that even bihari failed english cos I have seen video of hausas who are professors abroad and they don't have accent behold they are born in Nigeria north. There are yoruba, igbo and hausa who have accent infact lot of them but when you look at it from a wider angle you will notice they schooled in the 60s and 50s which is understandable but schooling nowadays and social media and movies should have boosted anyone's way of pronouncing and another factor I just remembered is IGNORANCE. we Nigerians are better at that a lot |

Kobicove: I understand you clearly but you are not getting the point. Pronouncing words the way they are or should be pronounced is part of speaking a good english... Do you know that if you speak our nigerian english to some from uk or usa they hardly understand what you are saying... Talking from experience Until you pronounce them in the right way. Now a Nigerian english is fair but a Nigerian english with an accent is worse... Trust me if you know anyone who is a air hostest or host... Ask them... Once you have an accent they won't employ you because it will be hard to communicate in as much english is our first language... For the first time I spoke with a calabar man... I was confused cos most of his english sounds wrong and confusing... Up till date there are still some hausa that I spoke with but get confuse as what they are saying and mind you I am not a butter boy... I was born and raised in oshodi till date. |
