It is only people that like living on illusion or have an inferiority complex that always expect others to discard their own accent and acquire or start feigning the accent of other people.

My expectations aren't high from her, they are basic educational standards which she can't meet. Have you heard Akpabio speak? Or Nse Ikpe Etim? They both have accents but they speak proper English.
You listed people from French-speaking countries as standards in English. Is English their lingua-franca there? No. They probably learnt English as adults. Mercy learnt English from primary school, English is her lingua-franca and she still speaks like an okpa hawker. Her supposed education can not even show in her speech or thought process.

Until you show me where and when I have condemned PMB's accent, don't continue to mistake me for the bumpkins that brought you into this world. Now scram and direct your mention and myopic thought to small-minded elements like you before I change my mind and descend heavily on you.

You are mixing it up.

Accent is totally different from words you are using in your sentences.

Mercy issues is not her accent but her sentences constructions are like that of an illiterate.

Read the post again, chief....

It is referring to her accent.....she speaks "Igbotic"..

Carlo Ancelotti ran away from the press after the UCL final simply because he was struggling with both accent and words in response to what he was asked ..

That's how a typical igbo is, except the ones that were lucky to be born and bred in the SW.
Those ones can never go back home.

Well.......I only know the one I grew up with in lagos and the issue I have with them is feeling superior to everyone.

Mercy, don't mind those with inferiority complex worrying about your accent. You're Igbo and have every right to have Igbo accent.

My educational degrees alone stands higher than the degrees of your father (mkpi) your mother (chiwawa) and all your entire nuclear family combined. Keep speaking English with empty stomach.

oga I am saying zidane doesn't speak any English even if its a poor one! he doesn't have any history in any English country ,he hasn't coached or played in England so English is not among any of his languages. So there's nothing like zidane speaks poor English,it's just like me saying you speak poor Spanish, does it make any sense?

He needs to be a coach in England, you mean?

Arsene Wenger speaks Spanish, Italian, Japanese even though we barely know he has any history with the above countries.

France president, Emmanuel Macron speaks better English. Does he have any history in any of the country you listed? NO.

For once, I will pitch my tent with Mercy Eke. First of all, she's a Nigerian. Secondly, she never schooled outside. Her speaking with a local accent doesn't really matter as long as she gets her grammar correct. She's also very right about Ronaldo. Most of the superstars in the premier league can't speak English fluently and the fans don't even give a kettle's cover about that.

Can an English speak Edo without an English accent?
So why would one expect me to speak English without my Edo accent?

This was the ridiculous statement a film maker made then that almost made him lost out on a production investment.

You said it all. Mercy reminds me of a slay queen who claims to be a graduate. Omoo, that girl likes yanga but can’t even converse in pidgin English.
