If you had any sense your comment shouldn't have been ambiguous enough to lose the message being portrayed.

teflonjake:
You have sense abi?

Read my message again

Keep deceiving yourself until you get caught up in such awful situations.

Like I mentioned earlier, my phone was stolen recently and I tracked it and the thief was arrested and slept in the police cell for four days. So this is no joke.

Quality20:
buying n selling used phones is a more than a business here in Nigeria o. it can't b stopped period

It took only one day for the police to arrest the culprit after it had been tracked. Infact it took only about 3 hours.

If you want everything to be speedy, report the case to the police, then after tracking inform them, and I bet you the culprit could even be caught on that same day.

Also, when the thief is caught , you must insist that he shouldn't be released until you get everything you spent in recovering your phone. Then you calculate every cost accrued in recovering the phone and he has to pay.

Psalmpy:
And how many days did it take the police to recover the phone for you? Cos I just misplaced mine recently

That was how someone stole my phone last month and I tracked it, involved the police and got him arrested, he stayed in cell for some days. Meanwhile his family kept calling and begging.

Will post the entire story soon and hopefully it grace's FP so that people can learn how to recover their stolen phones and hopefully phone theft can reduce too.

Is this what you call sharp?

teflonjake:
Sharp man....inside a shallow cell.

Heartless

Your problem seems to be bigger than the continent of Africa. Who did this to you?

justtoodark:
realy.....you piss of shitt wanna be deltan...i see you as an omonigo...an effeminate useless nothing....i need my concentration for something else.....

Really? Haven't noticed though.

Daeylar:
Shugavee, Amberon11, saff, seems the thread was taken off FP and my comment condemning them was deleted.

After it has caused damage. I guess better late than ever.

Okidoki, if you say so.

1Sharon:
My comment went over ur head. I am not talking about the different tribes trying to communicate with each other. I am talking about ppl within the same tribes talking and still preferring to speak pidgin. I see it a lot in ppl from delta.

I rest my case.

1Sharon:
Lol you don't even the history on how pidgin originated lol.So much dishonesty

Nope...if you're not that good at it like you said then trust me I can school you at it.

justtoodark:
i can still mess you up in urhobo.....

You know not what you're saying.

erico2k2:
Go and check very well, the best way to preserve a language is to speak it, what good is it to write down a language and it not spoken

A fake trolling one

justtoodark:
fvck you...am still urhobo....

Girl I am from Delta State and you can't know my state more than me. Look up the history of Pidgin and you'll see that it originated as a result of different ethnic groups not being able to understand each other hence needing a unifying language.

Delta State is one of the most ethnically diverse states in Nigeria with at least 6 different languages. Do you then expect these people to speak their languages to one another when they obviously wouldn't understand each other?

1Sharon:
I also know a few ppl from the same ethnic group in delta and they still choose to speak pidgin over their language. So all you all you wrote are excuses and you are being dishonest

Who decides what a proper language is?

1Sharon:
Pidgin ain't a proper language mate

Do you not understand that our languages are 100% distinct from each other? Do you as a Yoruba hear igbo? In the same vein an urhobo person doesn't understand a word of Ijaw or itsekiri , there couldn't have been another unifying language other than Pidgin.

1Sharon:
Why did you bring Fela into this convo? What's ur point.
It's not just about language. You lot mostly bear English names too.

Beautiful languages but you don't want to speak it

Isn't Yoruba the unifying language of the yorubas?

At the end of the day all yorubas understand each other but there may be slight differences whereas Niger Delta languages are totally completely different in that an urhobo cannot understand a word of Ijaw and vice versa. So Pidgin is our unifying language.

1Sharon:
Exactly my point. So why don't you lot speak a unifying language like yorubas?

What don't you believe? That dangote spent millions on diamonds at his daughter's wedding or that Bill Gates daughter's horse's annual maintenance runs into millions.

Do you even know the cost of Bill Gates house? Please just google things up.

Adesolomon2014:
Kilode!!!
Exaggeration yi po.
Prove it or i dnt believe it, haba!

Languages are not just preserved by mere wishes. Like I said nothing lasts forever and that is a fact of nature.

How many physics books have been written in Yoruba language? How many chemistry, accounts, geography, mathematics, economics etc books have been written in Yoruba language? If you want to preserve your language and make sure it never gets eroded you must ensure that 99% of the books used in institutions are written and taught in Yoruba language, all media houses propagate news in Yoruba, and that Yoruba becomes the official lingua Franca of the Yoruba people.

Anything other than that is a mere wish.

1Sharon:
It is very deep and it is not just a language. It is about identity and believing that is worthy of being known and propagated.

Rotflmao to Syria

Rosebloom:
correct talk... Anambra no suppose near the list.

O boy! I remember when a de serve for Delta da year, we even de use pidgin teach if the Queens English no too de enter.

Nai a go one wedding for Osubi, small thing a for no gree come back. From the keke driver to my friend's Mumsie and brother, na laugh wan Kee me. Their pidgin sweet die. Lagos de learn for waffi dem.

Oya may person con teach me cos me na learner

Hahahahaha

UNIBENDON:
I don talk am say any place for Naija wey dem no dey yan Pidgin I no fit live their!

Dem never baff!!

hahahahahaha

UNIBENDON:
You be correct obote or jew for travel matter!

How you go expect make Bini(Edo) people force their language on Esan,Owan,Akoko Edo,Afamai etc people wey dey inside Edo state.Na im make Pidgin English come dey serve as a common language.

Abeg no let me nak u belle online.

Yes originally Latin but widely known as English alphabet today.

1Sharon:
Ok you right about that. But those letters are not English they come from latin

You're honestly too dull to be urhobo.
It's no wonder you only remember curse words.

justtoodark:
we are too diverse to concentrate on our tribal tongues...we wouldnt understand each other....disaster....

i dont speak urhobo that well sef no more...i only remember curse sentencies....

Keep calm, I certainly wasn't shaming yorubas and nor was anyone else on the thread.

It is not Pidgin English alone that is eroding our indigenous languages. English language itself is slowly eroding our languages and yes even the Yoruba you
think is intact isn't very much intact because at the end of the day most yorubas cannot write in Yoruba language.

It's not that deep you know, it's just a language and nothing stays the same forever.

1Sharon:
Let me further add and rock the boat even more:

Certain ethnic groups in Nigeria are noticing and worrying that their language is going exist. Why won't this happen when you shun ur language and favour pidgin English?


You want to laugh at Yorubas but they are having the last laugh. Because at the end of the day their language is intact

That list up there is shameful!

They write their language in English alphabets. Or do they have their own lettering system? The only Africans I give props to whenever such issue is raised are Ethiopians because they have their alphabet.

1Sharon:
Write their language in English? ..what

You no see say Delta State na number
1?

wink2015:
THIS YOUR BASKETMOUTH NOR GET RIVAL

YOU JUST DEY DROP AM AS HE DEY HOT!

You try Wella !

But Delta state for be number 1 for your list!

Why now?

You nor know say "DELTA STATE NO DEY CARRY LAST"

But they still write their language in English...so?

1Sharon:
This is Why I like yorubas. They always speak and enforce their language. Not no damn pidgin.

And I actually saw this thread in the travel section today..lol

Kingwizzy16:

When my dad was kidnapped he was also kept at a kidnappers den at Eleme.

Thank God my dad is alive and healthy today. God punish all kidnappers and punish their family members who support them.
