Nobody begged her to lead the committee. Since she is in that position, she shouldn't be dwelling on trivial issues like this. It's petty. Imagine, if one of the dapchi or chibok girls mothers saw this.

This is not the time for jokes. Any sane man will understand the error as applied in a sentence.

There is a time for everything

Nigerians own is using big big grammars even the British don't use..

While Ghanaians take consolation in their crooked accent by calling it British accent.

In reality a 7 years old British baby speaks English way better than an average Nigerian professor can ever speak... Why, it's their language and it comes naturally to them
