Is gbadebo an igbo name?

Is Chinedu Patrick a Yoruba man..

Shattuck:
nobody falls for this anymore, does sanwolu address his cabinet in Yoruba, does he give state address in Yoruba. If this is the scandal you have against him then you have nothing obviously.

There’s no sw governor including Lagos that will not do press briefings or interviews with journalists in Yoruba language. You guys can’t bend the narrative because you want to foist an inexperienced lad on a state. Kolewerk

oyin44:
Don't mind the idiot ..


It was that hatred he had in his heart against the Yoruba that stopped him from learning the language. .


it is now that the language is important to him...ba?

Sebi his people believe that Lagos is no man's land...ok we shall seeo

He is an indegene of Lagos. He is qualified to rule his land

Who told you that Obaseki is a failure.

Someone that thrashed Oshio baba and Tinubu combined in the last governorshi election?

Tinubu spoke yoruba and used the skill to defraus Lagosians.

All most all Obas and Baales in Lagos are well educated. We are not talking about Kwara state or Osun here. We are talking about lagos my friend.

Goke7:


Oga you lie, without speaking Yoruba any politician talk-less of a governor will have problems in governance. How will you settle disputes in warring communities. Kolewerk

Perhaps the reason obseki is a failure since he can’t speak bini

In all honesty and sincerity, Can anyone that cannot speak Igbo language be allowed to be governor of Anambra? Hahahaha. Some foolish people are just bloody hypocrites. Can these ipobians vote for Joe Igbokwe in Anambra as governor despite being the son of the soil and can speak the Igbo Language very well?

I am from uromi in Edo state.
Because I cannot speak the language, does that make me less of a person from there?

Obaseki is indeed a failure as pdp even came third behind apc and lp in the presidential elections. There is no way to define failure than that and he’s even begging market women to save him from impeachment right now by not voting apc so don’t change narrative for us here

You must be so ignorant to think everybody in Lagos is educated enough to speak fluent English. This dude of a learner that you guys are trying to foist on Lagos, Una don kill im political career forever like Jimi agbaje. He will forever regret aligning with you guys.

You Dey mind them? Na Yorubas I blame for always allowing the sw as a testing ground for wokeness.

Sanwo Olu all the way.

OneCandleAway:


There's a man in Finalnd with biracial yoruba kids, those boys speak good yourba and they are little. The father started speaking to them while they were toddler, the mother speaks finning and Polish with them. The father speaks yoruba and English.

Yeah, I've come across their video once.

That's what I call intentional parenting. It takes efforts and commitment.

Those boys won't have issues relating with the grassroot should they decide to delve into Nigerian politics in future.

Candidate of awon omo ajokuta mamomi.

Don't worry we shall choose from a man who will continue the good legacies that make Lagos the best economy state in Nigeria and a boy whose mother said " MY SON WILL MAKE LAGOS LIKE SOUTH EAST" Meaning, south east where unknown gunmen have taken over the government of the east, where children don't respect themslelves talkless of elders, where they are trained how to abuse anyhow e.g watch out through comments below, east where they are ingrates from the head to the leat person there, east where they will never allow you to own property and region where they are involved majorly in many atrocities worldwide

Can a governorship aspirants in the south east or anywhere north who can’t speak Igbo or Hausa be allowed any ticket talk more of contesting..? Impossible! He will be traced to his 1st and last ancestry… Yorubas are not fools….

Vinnie2000:


Hope you know that NOT only Yorubas reside in Lagos?

Hope you know some Yorubas in Lagos (Mostly Richmen's Children) aren't Fluent in Yoruba, Just like GRV? 😒

Hope you know NOT Every Yoruba reason like You?

All Yorubas reason like him o if na dat one you wan hear! The guy can’t speak the language of the people he wants to govern and you expect them to vote for him? Which kain nonsense be that?!!

Lamanii22:



Both of my parents aren’t learned… they communicate in Yoruba with us but my Yoruba is not still fluent…. I’m like the only one who can’t speak Yoruba well In my house…. Even my neighbor that his parent taught in English can speak yoruba like chewing gum

Your neighbour can speak Yoruba because he had Yoruba friends/people who communicated with him via the language.

If you mix with speakers of a particular language, naturally you'll pick up the language

Kobicove:


There is nothing is wrong with speaking your native language to your kids even if they were born and breed abroad!

Go to Ilupeju in Lagos and see second and third generation Indians who were born in Nigeria and have never been to India yet they speak their native language fluently.

This is one trait I admire the Indians, Chinese and Spanish speaking people for.

No matter where they reside outside their country, they ensure they always speak their language to their children.

I have learnt something from them regarding this.

And u want to b our governor


Haha
. No vacancy for u in Alausa.

I discovered one app where you can get data at ridiculous low price. It is where resellers are getting there data for resale. Google search "Data Factory app by William Synergy Inc." and see for yourself

Vinnie2000:


How about the Days of Military administration?

Did Buba Marwa and Ndubuisi Kanu know to Speak Yoruba? ☹️😏

Excuse me sir,
You can compare civilian regime to military regime. They are totally different.

In civilian, the people choose.
In military, the C-in-C chooses.

Correct

Abagworo:
Is he Egun or Yoruba?

I asked myself same when I saw a video of him trying to speak in Yoruba. The accent is pure Egun or Ajashe.

inoki247:



Lol is Obi not knowing it all and still couldn't deliver anything in Anambra....

Do you live in Anambra? The context here is Lagos State, because I'm sure APC's Lagos have not delivered up to half of what they've been campaigning with, promising the people. Why don't Tinubu and his boy's vacate Alausa for someone who can deliver if it is so hard?

Eriokanmi:
Good man. Someone who would never mince words on his stance on the truth. They say he's not yoruba because he can't speak the language. How many children of this generation can speak yoruba? Those bigots sponsored to tanish his image cant come out openly to say their children can construct a simple sentence in yoruba.

The head of technical dept in my company is igbo from imo state. None of his children speaks igbo. He married a lady from ogun state. My children are just learning how to speak Yoruba too. The eldest is learning fast..they didn't grow in the midst of my people. GRV isn't someone who would hide facts about him...his identity is known, schools attended home and abroad are known, family backgrounds are know yet, some sponsored tribalists are saying trash because he can't speak Yoruba.

When some factions of the apc in lagos realised that Desmond Elliot was tipped ahead of their candidate, this issue also came up. They said he didn't grow up here, that he was raised in Jos, that he can't even speak Yoruba. Today, ask Desmond any questions in yoruba, you'd be shocked what you hear

We shall meet at the polls on Saturday. Sanwoolu isn't known in Alimosho,.I maintain.

It is easy to sell.lies to.nairaland people.in which you have just done....


Just one question.....

How do you want to relate with the people you don't grow up around....we have different people in Lagos state...when there was Rampage of EndSARs im Lagos state ...when Sanwoolu got to the scene of the protest ....He spoke their language...it was from that ground the word "/Soro S'oke "/came up...

It is easy to.pacify someone if you speak his language ......


Whenever Buhari is in Kastina...stste....I'm sure he speaks the Hausa language and this is one of the codes for trust and brotherliness ...


You cannot brush this aside...there are so.many traditionalist that will come and meet him in Alausa Office ....There are market women association who do not understand the English....language...You can only be identify with so many people with the language you speak...

I have traveled to different countries... And you feel safe when you are exposing your immigration secret to a Nigerian than a Canadian in Canada because you speak the same language ....and the person also has passed through what you are going through.....

Na you win Lagos in the presidential election?

OneCandleAway:
It's the father's fault.

Mist people use English for communication with their kids nowadays.

He'll definitely work on his yoruba now. But we shouldn't use this as an excuse to not vote GRV. We need a change, we need someone new. We need the Apc structure collapsed in lagos so we can progress further. Lagos generated a lot to still be in this state.

You are correct, I have three nephew who schooled in Lagos and University of Ife they never traveled abroad, yet non of them can speak the Language, it is not peculiar to the candidate alone, it the fault of Yoruba parents generally, and I think in trying to preserve our Language from extinction, that is why Lagos State government make the study of the language compulsory at junior secondary school level. But I still think this may not solve the problem, because how many students applied to study Yoruba language at higher institutions? Or even if such a student is determine to study it, how many parents are ready and willing to sponsor their children to study Yoruba, unless their is deliberate action on government to motivate students to study it. So please don't pass the blame to the young man.

dedonfranco:

you will be surprised that Labor party will win

ImmaculateJOE:
The illiterates of the 21st century, are not those who cannot read or write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn.

GRV is down to earth and a good learner..

Can you say the same in Aba or Onitsha? Ori yin ti daru

YorubaRonuuu:
Sanwo olu actually gave him the chances of winning with his selfish and inconsiderate altitudes toward the lagosian in his first tenure... Let him keep learning how to speak Yoruba. I pray the best candidate whose tenure will favor lagosian wins the governorship post

YORUBAS reasoning like you are scarce. I am Yorùbá too and I share your view.
The fact that he can't speak Yoruba doesn't make him less a Yorùbá man
My son and daughter are schooling abroad and can't speak Yoruba thou they are Yorùbá.

Let God's will be done in Nigeria.

The kind of thrashing this man will get on Saturday will humiliate him.

Bigfish121:
I am from uromi in Edo state.
Because I cannot speak the language, does that make me less of a person from there?

That is your choice ...

But when you are representing people whose most prevalent language is Edo ....then, you will know that you have a problem....

One of the reason Adam Oshiomole is still having the heart of his constituency in Edo State is because
He is a grassroots person....He knows Edo people and culture in and out...and he can speak relate with different people from different. Background

Try and contest for Edo Councillor position. And see what will become of you...

I trust edo people ...the most state that treasure culture more than anything....
