Dim Ojukwu Speaking Fluent Yoruba Language

Re: Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu Speaking Fluent Yoruba Language by madridguy(m): 4:55pm On Feb 25
Yoruba and Hausa language are the two common indigenous languages in Nigeria.

You must speak either of the two to excel in Nigeria.

The very cerebral nature of the average Igbo man..

I think in the whole world,not just in Africa..the percentage of Igbos that can speak foreign languages should be the greatest...more than any other group or nstive can speak other languages..multilinguity is a big intelligence indicator

Tribalism is the intense loyalty to a specific social group, tribe, or faction, often creating a strong "us vs. them" mentality. It stems from deep-seated, evolutionary needs for survival, security, and community identity.

If you like wail from now till the year 3030,Yoruba lagba. Nnamdi Azikwe saw the great in Yoruba language, reason he named his children Yoruba names. Ojukwu same thing, he learnt the language because he knows its a global language.

Other 248 languages are behind Yoruba and Hausa language. The Nigeria Army language is Hausa while the entertainment language in Yoruba. This is not bragging or anything, na God say make e be like that.

it doesn't build a society why not advocate for a division than piloting on a deceitful mode which looks cowardly.

And because he was born in Zungeru, Niger state, I am sure he speaks Hausa fluently too. Many Nigerian soldiers actually speak several Nigerian languages.

Not a big surprise when you consider where he grew up.

He was born in the North so I know English and Hausa were his main languages then. Grew up in Lagos later which is when he learnt Yoruba.

Igbo was the last language he learnt to speak fluently from most eye witness accounts.

The leaders of yesterday were mostly polyglots. They spoke more languages ..

Bola Ige spoke about 7 or so likewise most of the others too

My grandmother spoke the Igbo,Hausa and yoruba fluently too. She was born to igbo parents in kano,when she married she lived with her husband in lagos before they moved down east before the civil war.

For me, Igbo and hausa are the only important languages in Nigeria. Outside lagos, yoruba language is useless but you'll find Igbo and hausa speakers in all part of Nigeria. With these two languages, you can conduct business transactions seamlessly anywhere in Nigeria.

See how silly you are, do you even need to master Yoruba to conduct business in Lagos? Did it sound like Ojukwu was completing a business transaction when he was speaking it in that clip?

Keep deceiving yourself about the importance of Yoruba language and keep equating your life and existence to only business....like Olu Maintain once said, said some of you have come to this life to kill yourself with only work cheesy
