BBC Offers News In Pigeon English Hausa And Igbo by BigBashiru(op): 7:53pm On Jun 17, 2020
NTA had since 1960 to do this yet nothing. Foreign news media has done it. Shame on Nigeria!

So does the word "Nigeria " appear on the letters that make up NTA?

So which languages are spoken in Nigeria? Would it make sense for NTA to broadcast in Swahili to Nigerians?

Now, does the name Nigeria appear anywhere in the letters that make up BBC? Therefore BBC isn't obligated to broadcast in any Nigerian language except in ENGLISH spoken by the BRITISH that is among the letters of the BBC.

So, stop yapping rubbish! NTA is not BBC! If NTA didn't broadcast in Nigerian languages, nobody will watch it. Unlike BBC and CNN that broadcast in the language of their countries and everyone still watch them.
