Culture / Re: Yorubas In Nigeria That Can't Speak Yoruba by FaithSight(f): 3:57pm On Apr 18, 2006
Most of you guys on this thread are just talking a bunch of RUBBISH!! But don't stop, keep talking so that we can see full of nothing you are.

i started this trend, just to find out if there were any yoruba's that could not speak yoruba in Nigeria. and the answer is YES. I need to find this out, in order to point out to thoses that come over to UK and diss me coz i was not able to pick up my language

@dakmanzero
Was fluent in both languages, but spoke yorus with a british accent

People found this hilarious in Nigeria, so I stopped speaking Yoruba out of shame.

I know how you feel, at least you understand the language. I am a bit worried to go to Nigeria in case people take advantage of me cos i don't understand the language

I am starting to pick of phases, so you can start by using Yoruba phase in conversation to build back your confidence

I was just trying to defend the person who opened up the topic, because your comments hit on her and everyone concerned.

thanks, I get cussed for being Nigerian and not speaking Yoruba by those that just come from Nigeria, they seem to find it hard to comprehend that a Yoruba girl cant speak or understand Yoruba.


Yoruba by name, the 32yr old man doesn't speak a word of Yoruba, not even to talk of Pidgeon english. They are in Nigeria now for 3wks vacation, they even got counted by the census peeps. They even got the slip. Tell me, Are they Nigerians? Are they foreigners? Are they even patriotic. You decide.

this is definitely a point. i feel this away as well. my genes say i am Yoruba but my experience does not live up to it. yet in the eyes of the English people, i am Nigerian not matter what. yet i feel that if i went to Nigeria now i would not be seen as a Nigerian.

I am a Yoruba Gal Born in Lagos, Grow up in London. My mum married a White man when i was little and now I don't understand Yoruba anymore.

Nigeria's come over to London (for the first time), that see me are supprised that I am a Yoruba girl.

anyway i had a serious argument with someone that just Come to London, and i found out that there are Yorubas in Nigeria that don't understand Yoruba

Is this true?
