How many of these children can speak good English? Our English is battered with pidgin and slang.

For a parent to deny their children the opportunity to speak their language amounts to denial of their right to effective communication. Most of issues we now experience in our country today is not unconnected with this misplacement of values by parents.

How do you teach a child our African values like greetings,respect for elders, communal relationship, morals etc in English language? It will be ineffective.

Countries like China and Korea are developing and exporting their languages to the globe. These countries now teach difficult subjects like Quantum Physics in their languages.

If you love your child, allow him/her to speak your dialect effectively, then English.

I would love to see Victor Osimhen in action.

Do you need graduate interns? I have a good background on electronics (not with practical) and can program with python/c# and JavaScript.

Honestly, If the rating is according to spoken English, Nigeria really tried to occupy that position.

Imaging the different versions of spoken English we have in Nigeria

Calabar English

Aboki Version

Anambara English ....(like, this is vely (not very) good)!

Ijebu Ode Version ......(like tirii for three)

Tiv Intonation.....Its worse than Calabar


Nigeria is lucky to have occupied that position

The writer need to do more research before posting rubbish.
what about :
Micheal Jackson - Music
Bruce Lee - Kung Fu
Pat Utomi

just to mention a few

You believed so much lies and that's why you want others to do so!!!

V. Prezideoo , follow Road.must you travel by air?

. If the penalty for stealing in Nigeria is amputation, then members of our national asssemly would have lost their limbs. who ever participated in the amputation of the hand of the young lad is cursed forever.

xstry:
Is she normal?

No, she is over-normal.

Wise men ask questions.. The questions raised by Oga Fayose begs for honest answers. Why the urgency in the sack? No investigation or further interrogation. I will be surprised if Mr obazee's replacement is not from the North!!!

Get a hungry lawyer, e no go chop pass #5,000!

You lack knowledge, most renowned churches in Nigeria have wonderful and affordable hostpitals and health centres . Besides Nigeria is not a theocratic government, and soso the church is not supposed to provide health care facilities for the whole Nigeria.

i know much about the southern kaduna killings but why vote in two well known Fulani supremists?lga bosses in gwari Christian areas are now given to Muslims and when the locals protest, they open fire on them. they're party responsible for their own problems.

It's so easy to lie down on your bed and dish out comments thoughtlessly. I bet you do not know what it cost to be a Christian in the northern Nigeria.

The fear of the church of God is the beginning of wisdom. If you doubt it ask Abacha!

Its so funny and unfortunate how some so called Igbo leaders come to believe that they are not united.

Any Igbo that seriously fancies the notion that Igbo's are not united is either anti-igbo or suffers from identity crisis.

Machyne:
what is the US flag doing there?? Africa and neo-colonialism. smh

Its Liberian flag

honestly, the pope needs to give buhari an Abacha hand shake.

Not surprised, when you have a Nigerian in you cabinet in this era of chanji

your speech unfortunately is not for Waec holders!!!

TheFreeOne:
As good as he sounds he didn't say anything new outside what we've been saying before now on the need for restructuring.

However his: "May 2017 be the year we look into the future with the eyes of faith and take steps to accomplish all that we know is possible" is what we'll await to see.

At least, he is one of the few influencial Nigerians to have come up openly to support restructuring.

free2ryhme:
Herbal drug is dead because has no dosage limits, produced conditions that are not hygienic, vendors are not registered and certified, they have no form of regulation

Except you want to kill yourself u patronize them at your own risk

Another brainwashed mind!

If you are in a serious relationship,
I strongly advice you consult your man
Whether he pays the bill or not.

Personally I love well flowing hair or braided style. Bald hair cut turns me off no matte how cute it looks.

A friend sent me this today:

If u were born btwn 1980-1995,
2016 should be ur last year of being stupid..
We are getting old, people!..NO TIME TO WASTE

You need to:
1. Get a job if u don't have one. No need to keep waiting for free Chinese laptops or the government to provide job for you or waiting for someone to surprice u. There is no more manner from heaven direct. You must go for work manner if u need one.

2. Filter ur current friends and make more business patners. Don't be intimidated. Thee president can be your friend. So go closer to great people , ask questions... be real to yourself and stop faking to be what u are not.

3. Start saving a part of ur income and invest it (not in MMM, buy a land, shares, bond etc). You must not build in a day. You can go slowly slowly and before the year runs u have done something unbelievable

4.stop clubbing every weekend.. Stay indoors sometimes n read a book or 2. Read books and watch movies that motivates u.

5. (Ladies) stop waiting for a prince charming to come and save ur self (disney n hollywood lied to us) you should know that by now. A hard working lady is an added bonus to the husband and family. Don't be a liability to your man but an asset.

6. Stop dating anybody u dont see yourself having a future with. Have focus in everything you do in life. Once the objective is failing ...the next thing should be a Quit.

7. (Guys) stop honoring every single invitation to go and hang out n drink n flex with chicks. I don't say don't have pleasure... let there be time for everything. We make time...time don't make us.

8. start sending money back home (ur parents will be so proud). Give gift to family and friends ...there prayers and happiness is the key for your multiplication.

9. Stop squatting around with friends, get your own apartment. Yes u can!!!

10. Please God with your body. It is the only way to have a body fit for the old days ahead. Pray and commit all to God with trust.

11. Don't be a natural fan to nollywood . You don't need to know all movie that cames out new. Those people u are watching are working there own money. U can also be watched . Don't u think so?

12. Think about being responsible .

GUYS-
Think about getting a family of your own and making your own home. You are independent
LADIES -
Stop posting ur helps and breast on Facebook just to get many likes. Go back to your Facebook and delete all senseless and exposed pics . You are at a marriage age. Go closer to mothers than to single ladies . You will learn a lot in preparation of your own house.

Better, send him to Syria or Somalia

So sad Nigeria youths don't believe that they are competent to lead. You are not just leaders of tommorow but today. Kudos to MUHAMMAD USMAN ADAM.

Sometimes I wonder if the Road Safety subjects these tanker drivers to psychological test

Nigeria youth are laying down their life's to fight insurgency - a problem created by our elders. But When it comes to politics and public office, we are always reminded unceasingly that youth are the leaders of tomorrow. So sad we lost You. Rip

This is first class wickedness. What has a woman's unclothedness got to do with stolen fowl?

Whenever I see Obiano, I don't know why, but I have this feeling that he is a serious cultist.

Most of our politicians too

Accuser of the bredren

Wonder why Objs name has not been mentioned

I sincerely need help. Am developing an SMS system to support administrative communication for an educational institution. One of the requirement of the system is that students will be able to inquire about their examination grade by sending a matricnumber, course-code and a password to a phonenumber/shortcode. The system responds by sending the exam grade to the user's phone number. I was relying on Twilio for this messaging but they notify me recently that they do not support 2-way messaging in Nigeria yet. Does any body know any reliable service provider that supports 2-way SMS in Nigeria? Pleases if you have knowledge or experience with any, it will be appreciated.Thanks
