Reno has a point. English is our official language

Gerrard59:
Taught*

For a group of people who misuse words during their written conversation, I argue that Nigerians MUST continue to write English proficiency tests whether they like it or not. These are the same people who ask "English na my papa language?" when corrected. Are the Chinese and Russians doing badly because they don't speak English properly? Forgetting that in both countries, English is NOT the OFFICIAL language of communication.

"There" for their
"Were" for where
"Leave" for live
“Axe” for ask
“Borrow” for Lend (Iyin Aboyeji, an urbane elite, used borrow rather than lend in one of his tweets).

Nigerians MUST continue to write the IELTS/TOEFL/PTE. I will write to the British Council to ensure this happens regardless of Reno's rants. Never should the test be scrapped for Nigerians. They MUST WRITE IT!

All other colonial product of Britain write exams. I ask again, what made u different?

Golan007:
If for visa Reason, it is daft.

Angelfrost:

Useless man of no integrity, this is what he should have used his useless life and time to be doing, maybe he would have had some regard instead of going back to his vomit to lick 80yrs old grandpa's anüs just because of political appointment.


Maybe his lost senses are coming back as he hasn't gotten any settlement appointment yet, yeye Omockery

lagosrd:
Is not almost like an insult. It's actually an insult to tell me to proof that the whole job done by my lecturers for 4-5yrs was fine in junk English.

These and many are just avenues to rip people of their money. When you see for the writing of the IELTS and your score comes out you start to imagine what you have written wrong to fall under band 7 while you pass the rest well. How can you speak so well that the writing will be a problem to bad. I disagree totally

Very stupid talk
If you have lived in England for 1 month you would know English people are even more guilty of those solecism examples you cite
Most have very poor grammar and many do not pass English at O level
Those examples are wholly irrelevant for migration purposes
What matters is being able to communicate on the street or in any proposed employment role
Many Londoners better understand Nigerians than their compatriots from Sunderland

Those people you mentioned don't go to the university or bother with higher education or studying fancy courses. On the other hand, Nigerians want to and often need to go to school when they go abroad. They want to work jobs that the citizens have little interest in. Most of their citizens are the government responsibility and can/have survived somehow even without working. Nigerians cannot survive there without working, they went there to work and get promoted and send millions to Nigeria. Different perspectives and needs.

Go and check well.

Every Chinese that migrated to uk legally in the past 15 years passed TOEFL very well. And so therefore, can write and speak passable English language.

Why is everything seen as discrimination here?
