Which value did she not add?

We tune to several stations in our mobile phone daily and listeners can switch off quickly and this will affect ratings and audience.

The Station Manager check the audiences in every programme and if her ratings is poor,what do you expect

Thus the reasons most of the Presenters begged the audience to share and liked !

Wahala be like bicycle.

Well for a start, I'd like to know the name of the radio station.

She probably pronounces it like the way Naira Marley does.
To those who think she substitutes "L" for "R", that's hardly the case for Yoruba people; that one is a problem for Ibos.
Yorubas have their own peculiar problem. If you want to know what I mean just listen to naira Marley pronounce "R". It sounds more like /gh/. For instance they want to pronounce /r'ead/ but it sounds like /gh'ead/. Or thier /nige'r'ia/ sounds like /naiji'gh'ia/. Most Yoruba people have it.

Maybe she’s tongue tied

You still haven't told me the value she specifically didn't add

Strange, since you did not correct this guy below whose unwarranted tribalism I was responding to. Which tells me you yourself are a diehard flat_headed tribalist pretending to be level-headed. Take your flat_headed nonsense off my mentions.

Feel free to correct him if u are any different from him. Or are u any different from him? So now that I have mentioned u, what are u going to do about it?

She is not alone, one 'freshman" who is also an OAP in the east is also affected but that doesn't stop him from effectively carrying out his radio functions.



These ones are hypocrites!

Do you understand english is not your language?... learing emglush is a choice sometimes with economic implication... if i were you maybe you sho7ld mske fun of your parents and grand parents fot their very poor english.

Only black Africa were people judge a human being by the type of english dem dey speak... the sad part is this same people go hire a gate man when no Sabi speak english and entrust their life and family life to this gateway to keep safe

Your head is too flat for you to have sense.

Lol. To think I know of a of a girl who was intentionally pronouncing "R" as 'W"...not that she has deficiency...

Perhaps, she likes the way those with the deficiency pronounce such letter...

That's not her defect !!! It's just R. And she pronounces R as "arh".. she's yoruba not ibo

The pronounciation distorts beautiful presentation of programs which is akin to non performance because her ratings between 1-10 could fetch her btw 4-6.

Any ratings below 8 is not acceptable because some presenters had 9-10 ratings.

The Manager has a duty in his hands to decide if it’s okay to accept lower ratings and wield his axe.

You know you are right.
I remember when i was in Oau, two guys were fighting over one girl like that for Awolowo Hall and before you know it, three front teeth of one the fighters don removed and the fourth one was shaking. We took them to common room to narrate what led to the fight and possibly give them MSS Maximum shi shi only for the guy with the lost teeth to say, " they gave me shiis funchess meaning six punches.
Na so we burst laughter saying thank God you are not in English department, you would have been saying i want to register for yiiingiiistic instead of Linguistics.
R factor is bad. Request will be liiinquest.
Right will be light. My friend, na your mouth do u oo

Your assumption and claimed of pronouncing R as L is wrong, have you ever heard of people that have problem of pronouncing R speaking before because I can't understand why you would said they pronounce R as L.

They don't pronounce R as L, it just that the R sound will miss from their speech. For instance. Resistant will be pronounced as Esistant, the R sound will be m
issed. Radio will be Adio.

If you think I'm wrong, I'm stand to be corrected.

Oyibo people can't pronounce Gbenga . So it's a universal problem

"... doesn't know how to...

Imagine this from a whole supposed broadcaster

Greatzeus:

You are completely wrong,replace the "L" with "W".
L is for those with Igbo accent,not those who can't pronounce R.
I know because I am like that too. I tried to correct it when I got into the university. I started reading loud and recording it,then I will replay it,I discovered that I pronounce words like room as woom,great as gweat,treat as tweat.
I started being conscious of it and tried to correct it,I think I made progress,but later I was like f* ck it,na who that one help.

Recording your own voice is a great hack. The first time I recorded my voice, I shock. I sounded too igbotic and too fast and I realized why people were always saying eh? eh? anytime I spoke. Am working on it now.

Exactly, he got it wrong.

In my own view, I think the R sound will be missed, isn't it?
