Your English is poor. It's 'I'm hungry'.
And so what about it!?
Jeez angry
The way we fight 'the Englis' battles for it makes me wanna throw up
The shackles of being colonised (and enslaved) are still there, in our mentality and affect

Until we emancipate ourselves from these, it is posts like yours and never amounting to much as people for us, forever

I understood his post and so did you....you just had to let him know how you know his English is poor o kwa ya?
I always cringe in embarrassment when I encounter African people who feel their knowledge of English is a crown to be proud of....it is not darling, I hope you get this one day

I'm well over 21. I have a Bsc and by July next year I would bag my second degree.

I lost interest in furthering ahead in football when I went for a screening. The coach was suprised when he saw me play well in the defensive midfield role and as a central defender. I was aked to stay aside.

To cut the story short, someone else got my place because he brought a signed letter from a senator.
I see. All the best with your academics. The mistake that some great players like you who didn't proceed with football made is that they didn't get an education or learn a trade. I see many of them, broses in their 40's, and marvel. Thank God you got an education. Hopefully, you can transfer that zeal to your kids as I am definitely going to do.

For now, before I get my own boys by God's grace, I am looking for a talent under 20 that I can invest in.

Good luck

Nigerian Pro footballer and Arsenal Star, Alex Iwobi scored one of the goals that saw the Super Eagles secure a 2-1 win over Zambia in the Russia 2018 World Cup qualifier on Sunday.


The match was his first competitive debut and his very first competitive international goal.

If we can abandon all our local dialects and adopt the English Language as our official Language, we might as well be fluent in it. If we were in South-Africa where they've got 11 different official languages, it'd have been no issue. Well, I'm not always like this. In fact, I'm not like this at all! He made a non sensible comment and I tried to be sarcastic in return.

I'm from Akure, I speak my local Akure dialect and the normal everyday Yoruba. I'm proud of my language. Even I speak Yoruba better than English. You're a proud speaker of the Igbo language too, I guess!
