Before i start, lemme state that am a big fan of eagles captain. But the guy's spent at least 13 yrs in europe and his accent is not comparable with even mikel that went yesterday e.g Peak ad. 'i was ditameaned to never gifup' =i was determined to never give up' What can cause that kin tin? |

Kanu has worked hard and is laughing to the bank. . .the rest na gossip and u be expert for that one  shior!! |

| Re: Kanu's Accent by bawomolo(m): 10:59pm On Nov 15, 2009 |
i bet kanu nwankwo as a millionaire is definitely concerned about how an accent is wrecking havoc on his livelihood. |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by chiogo(f): 11:40pm On Nov 15, 2009 |
Krayola:Seriously ooo. I don't get this mentality. Why should his accent change because he's spent time in Europe. WTF? Only Africans do this, Americans will go to Nigeria and not try to learn the country's accent rather Nigerians will be conforming to their foreign accent instead of it being the other way round. This inferiority complex is just retarded. No wonder Africa is not moving forward, I pity this poster.   |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by Nobody: 11:43pm On Nov 15, 2009 |
There was this joke about Nigerians being the only people capable of just flying over the USA and/or Europe by plane and picking up the accent. |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by Sagamite(m): 1:21am On Nov 16, 2009 |
What a stupid, degenerate brain. So what is wrong with a Nigerian accent. |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by Dclique(m): 2:20am On Nov 16, 2009 |
Once again another funny thread. This should go to jokes |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by chidichris(m): 2:23am On Nov 16, 2009 |
@idiot, are u a student of oxford university? be reminded that we are no longer in the days of speaking and writing english alone you have to speak and make some financial ability. please be frank, will you choose to speak queen's english without money over having enough money and not knowing english. the mikel you mentioned was in a south african school sometime before proceeding to europe. pls look for another topic or be a good listener. |

You guys are getting me wrong. Nothing wrong with nigerian accent if you are speaking right phonetic grammar. But when u still pronouncing V as F, then there is an issue PS. I DON'T HAVE ANY INFERIORITY COMPLEX COS I SPEAK IMPECCABLE ENGLISH WITH MY NATURAL ACCENT!!! |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by koolchicco: 12:20pm On Nov 18, 2009 |
Knight1: . . .Then make a youtube clip of urself (accent) and lets compare it with Kanu's. . |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by Nobody: 12:23pm On Nov 18, 2009 |
There is something called "Interference of The Mother Tongue" It is more dominant in some people |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by nazzyon(m): 9:18pm On Nov 18, 2009 |
Part of the problem brought upon us by the colonist. If Nigerian's stick to our mother tongue non of these would have happened. Papa na interpreter go dey make him money. |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by chidichris(m): 9:20am On Nov 19, 2009 |
@poster, i know u will end up bringing shame to yourself and ur family. u talk about accent when kanu is employing the best of hands in managing what he has gathered in life. |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by meexteriox(m): 11:01am On Nov 19, 2009 |
@Poster Kanu is smiling to the bank weekly with loads of dough while you rotting away in the vehicle bound for stupidville. Accent ko, accent ni!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

@Poster~u are here talking abt Kanu's accent, and Kanu is making it big, big, smiling to d bank. |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by Knight1(m): 6:18pm On Nov 19, 2009 |
@chidichris a lot of nairalander's are insultive, i get that, but for ppl to exhibit their lack of etiquette, lack of morals, and faulty upbringing , thats a serious prob. I merely expressed that someones english should have been more polished than it is without any malice so i don't get how its your biz!!!! I have not and will never bring shame to my family, though clearly for you, thats a pastime( for which you can't be blamed since it appears you got a terrible background) plus money aint everything, since you seem to lack the knowledge of that too!!!! |

typical ibo man |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by denzel2009: 11:21pm On Nov 19, 2009 |
I can relate with the poster a little, there are somethings Kanu shd have dropped by now irrespective of how wealthy he is. Pls lets not stoop low to be insultive, its just an opinion he wanted to share. Anyway, I still love my naija accent  |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by Sagamite(m): 12:12am On Nov 20, 2009 |
denzel2009: Like what and why? |

| Re: Kanu's Accent by chiogo(f): 5:45am On Nov 20, 2009 |
Knight1:It wouldn't be inferiority complex if you hadn't brought the "staying in Europe for over 13 years" comment into it. You implicitly said that because he's lived in Europe, he should sound better, which also infers that the Nigerian accent he had pre- and post- living in Europe sounds bad. That's what it sounded like.  |
| Re: Kanu's Accent by IYANGBALI: 8:45pm On Nov 20, 2009 |
The truth must be told kanu,s english accent is bad no matter how rich he is he should go and learn from his broda mikel obi who went there just yesterday some people are just lazy when it comes to learning.Kanu is a disappontment in that area |
