Because of the sexy nature of our accent, one of our pastors in south Africa is recording a high number of audience.
Niaja nor dey carry lastooo. we will be dominating Africa and we will extend it to UK. Go to churches pastor by a Nigerian in UK and see the turn out.

Who "owns" O ?


Please it is a GENERALLY used among tribes in Nigeria and around Africa.

People are trying to claim ownership just because they want to take the the "glory" for Nigeria being fifth, on the list, lol.

Must absolutely everything result in tribal rivalry?

CNN said Nigerian accent dudes and stop this tribal war. Nigerian accent because it's a blend of all ethnic accents. Yoruba or Igbo accents would be different if left on its own. Proudly Nigerian, Naija 4 life

Sounds like: The THX intro with teeth

From the above poster's quote of CNN and the bolded, it is obvious, Yoruba language is referred. I wonder if that is CNN's idea of Nigeria. These people hardly know us yet they issue plenty reports about us. That was how one was asking if Nigeria was in Africa the other day, saying she had thought, all her life, that Nigeria was in the carribeans.

Most ppl  think Yorubaland = Nigeria.

Even a song by Ghanaians "I am glad i'm not a Nigerians" had everything from Yoruba attire to Yoruba language in it.

I dont even know what to say about this one

ON the Title i can see 6st sexiest but on here i see 5

America is currently swimming in economic murky waters, any third world economy that they can milk or suck dry would really, definitely sound sexy!

This is good to know but which of the Nigerian accents sounds sexy? Because I don't think the Hausa/Fulani sounds good to the ears, I can stand the Igbos and my beloved Yorubas being ranked as people with sexy accents but the Hausa/Fulani, naw!

The sexy accent may not be obvious when we speak at home. It is when you speak good English that the beauty comes out in every naija no matter the tribe. It is more obvious when they speak with foreign colleagues abroad. Honestly my wife and I have many times mistaken Uk prime ministers and parliamentarians as nigerians when we hear their voices on TV when we not looking. Now we know why.

What about the Russian accent, it kind of sexy too

No, It gave two examples of famous tongues not an exhaustive list.

Do you really think Nigerian accent made number five just because of these two individuals?

lol French is rated here!!

Wow, this is one of the best news I've heard about Nigeria and I'm proud about it.

But i dont understand why some Nigerians like to speak like British and Ameriacns. So disgusting.

If u ask me, Europeans are the sexiest in everything, way way ahead of America.

The thing is to we, Nigerians, we do not have accent. Some might argue that there is the Igbo, Yoruba Hause etc accents but to outsiders (foreigners), there is the general Nigerian accent. Its all about speaking clearly, correctly and concisely while not trying to form the common British or American accent. I have a couple of foreign friends who tell me I speak impeccable English sexily. One couldn't even believe that English is Nigeria's official language. I can now understand why some of us are worth giving bank account information to.

Nigerian accent? Sexy
wonders shall never cease!! Not hating or anything, but really? I'm discombobulated,

This tread has acually brought out the fact inferiority complex is big issue with a good number of nigerian, it tend to drive the way we approach issues when dealing with the outside world, and internally within nigeria.

CNN have announced what they feel their list is, an pple are argueing seriously against it, dont CNN have their rights to determine what ever their sexy language is? The fact that CNN released a lit does not make international standard, so it is very funny when pple ask how 9ja can take 5th position, CNN have simple list things the way they see it and inferiority complex have driven most 9ja peeps to c it defacto international standard, forgeting that NTA, BBC or AIT can always come up with their own list,

Another way inferiority complex has affected this discussion is the way we try to force our selves to speak like british or americans, wheneve we travel abroad or when we work with expert locally, y must we force ourselves to speak limes them to get them to undertand us?? I think it the subconcious inferior feeling that comes to play when ever we encounter white skinned people, e go bettger one day, some pple even when to the extent to show that we cannot be the 5th sexiest language because of our fualty pronounciations, forgeting that there is a clear difference between accents and pronounciations.
Someone like Babe believes speaking Good is when u can speak like an american or british,
others are argueing that there can be no nigerian accent becuase we have 200 different groups in nigeria, those pple should find out how many groups india has, and how we only know on one indian acccent, do u think nigeria is more diverse than india?

I think its also important to mention that CNN would probable have drawn their conclusions from interactions with several hundreds of pple from each of the listed countries, hence yoruba cannot be the language being refered to by mentioning sunny ade and omotolahe way they see it and inferiority complex have driven most 9ja peeps to c it defacto international standard, forgeting that NTA, BBC or AIT can always come up with their own list,

Did they have to link the word "scam" with the sexiness? To me, this is another version of sony's misadvertisement!

My own Nigerian accent is sexy. The problem maybe lies with you.

KSA: AHH, omotorLA ow are you my doorta?
Omotola: AHH, Baba mi eye am veri fhine sir tank yu
KSA: AH, Ehen my doorta, you know say cnn say we get the mOst saxy aksent.
Omotola: AHH, Baba mi na so eye ear o
KSA: AHH, well Yoruba ronu o we are tuu musch o, lagosyoruba o ni baje o
Omotola: e ni ba je o

cant say i personally find the accent sexy, but to each his own.

the british nigerian accent might be sexy though.

also, the wazobia praise artists, like i mentioned before.

am more familiar with omotola's face than her voice but will look it up.

sunny ade has a great tone, that's for sure.


but, we have to go by the milllions of women who have voted for nigerians indirectly, so their opinion is what goes i suppose.

5th

Ehh no hope u dont mind me saying, NO way is that true. The carribean accent is really nice, the SA accent is soft, but no. I dont agree even tough my accent is a very thick Dublin accent.
