edo state shud be number 1...it's only delta central and south that speak pidgin...Edo entirely is a pidgin state

Amberon11:
Keep calm, I certainly wasn't shaming yorubas and nor was anyone else on the thread.

It is not Pidgin English alone that is eroding our indigenous languages. English language itself is slowly eroding our languages and yes even the Yoruba you
think is intact isn't very much intact because at the end of the day most yorubas cannot write in Yoruba language.

It's not that deep you know, it's just a language and nothing stays the same forever.

BiafranBushBoy:
pidgin isn't good!

It destroys your proficiency in English. Should be utilized while typing? ... pretty cool

Spoken? should not be used at all unless you've run out of options.

UNIBENDON:
I don talk am say any place for Naija wey dem no dey yan Pidgin I no fit live their!

Dem never baff!!

1Sharon:
Let me further add and rock the boat even more:

Certain ethnic groups in Nigeria are noticing and worrying that their language is going extinct. Why won't this happen when you shun ur language and favour pidgin English?
You want to laugh at Yorubas but they are having the last laugh. Because at the end of the day their language is intact

That list up there is shameful!

UNIBENDON:
Dem no know!

Who no go no know!

If you like be Professor for Edo state,if you no sabi Pidgin,you be correct obote!

1Sharon:
Gerrout of here. So you think Yorubas don't have different dialects?

peacengine:
Ma'am u no go understan. For we side every local govt geh differen lingua. Na pidgin we de use reason things together if noh we no go de hear we sef o. Na Nija delta lingua be diz. Buh my fear be say make we noh carry lass for English lingua

erico2k2:
Dem nor go understand, as I dey so, if I meet Yoruba person, nah pidgin we go take yan make people around us nor know wetin we dey talk, if I meed Edo guy same thing but if I meet my fellow Area, case close!

1Sharon:

Rosebloom:
correct talk... Anambra no suppose near the list.

O boy! I remember when a de serve for Delta da year, we even de use pidgin teach if the Queens English no too de enter.

Nai a go one wedding for Osubi, small thing a for no gree come back. From the keke driver to my friend's Mumsie and brother, na laugh wan Kee me. Their pidgin sweet die. Lagos de learn for waffi dem.

Oya may person con teach me cos me na learner

fratermathy:
Akwa Ibom nor follow at all for this matter. Na only Ibibio and good English dem dey yarn here. Dey nor sabi catapult pidgin at all. Even the small ones wey open eye for the matter sef nor sabi am wella. Their pidgin dey sound like good English mixed with Ibibio.

As for Anambra, na Igbo dey reign for there. Pidgin nor too follow. Na only for Onitsha dem dey speak small pidgin based on Asaba influence and based on say strangers boku for there. So Onitsha nor too follow up. Even Asaba sef, na Waffarians dey spoil that town. Normally, na Igbo dem dey yarn but Waffi boys don change am follow them. Some Asaba people don even get Warri tongue now sef.

For Bayelsa matter ehn, Yenagoa na correct pidgin area. The people wey get the town na Epie/Atissa dem dey speak normally but Izon people and Ogbia people plenty for the cabal so na pidgin naim dem take dey control their matters for there.

Lalasticlala and Seun, how una see this thread na? E nor suppose to loss like that. Make dem reason the matter na.

Takeproft:
All Edo and Delta cities represent for pidgin. Other notable mentions are Lagos and Port Harcourt. Every other places are debatable.
