JomasisTech:I'm open to learn. Besides, English language changes. The words or usage of words that seems right today might be wrong tomorrow and be corrected. Don't be surprised that what u corrected tonight might be wrong tomorrow and be corrected tomorrow. |

It's very simple. Their local languages have taken over their English. And many people didn't pay good attention to English language when being taught right from Primary and secondary school. Then also who you surround yourself with also affects. Then most Nigerian graduates don't read or do vocabulary development. There is a difference between written and spoken English too. |

Have participated in International postgraduate programme Group assessment work was 20% of the course grade. We had people from England in our group but the presentation was done by a Chinko guy with poor English but a great personality. We all did the power point together and our group got the highest score . The guy's personality shone through his poor English. When he made mistakes the examiners even helped him . We had native English speakers without his charisma in our group who were not confident enough |

This is where you people got it wrong in these country called Nigeria. China with their technological intelligence 80% of China didn't speak English but their exiled in the area of duty. The worse thing is that those people come to Nigeria here to head you and you are even callings them master, with the jagon the speak. But calling your fellow Nigeria names, yabbin him or her for not being able to speak English. |

HeavenVGate: Even you yourself knows that somehow, you are at disadvantaged, yes you are a guru in mathematics, but the knowledge you acquired in the university is supposed to be impacted on others for self development and by extension for nation building, to do that, you still need communication, since you are struggling to express yourself in English language, the knowledge you laboured to acquired in your university days, might be fruitless. How? Because you need English language to express and impact it in the country you are dwelling which uses English language as her official lingual franca. Note! For you to be deficient in certain area shouldn't be the yardstick to rubbish its importance during argument ok. 1 Like |

Karleb: I will see Lagbaja as an hypocrite had he said we should flog those not speaking good English when I am equally aware is not an expert or master in the same language. That song equally didn't convey the sense of people should not strive to speak good English. |

Fiscus105:Of course it's been difficult for you in life I know that. Listen to me! Isn't about speaking good English, all you need is communication. I don't need good English to teach anyone in fact I speaks Yoruba most time but guess what? I'm earnings big and doing so well. If all you got in your head is good English, I guess later on in life, you're gonna need to write a very good English expressions in a sheet of paper and eat them because no one is gonna employ you even a GATEKEEPER you ain't gonna get because your education is a waste when you can only speak English. One of the most important points in my comment is, It isn't about good English, once you can communicate and the Lister understand you so well, then you don't need any better English than just that but you didn't get that because of your good English Pardon me , what's your definition of a good English? Perhaps you are confused |
