Foreigna2:the Indians have English as their official language, but have you heard them speak? |

LesbianBoy: Ronaldo definitely speaks with an accent. He is not a native English. |

Foreigna2: While you do have a point, English language is not the first language learnt by many Nigerians. Their local language is often the first. The accent therefore comes from trying to speak the English language with the rules and intonation of their local language. Also, even many o the so called native English speakers in the United Kingdom have an accent depending on their location. Don't even get started with the Scottish or Welsh accent. Ultimately, an accent is not a measure of intelligence or exposure. People should not be shamed for it. |

Eagba: India is too far sef. Just listen to Scottish, Welsh, Irish or even people from Liverpool. |

dabossman: Go to Instagram and read her posts. Forget the issue of accent and ready her write ups. She is intellectually barren. Spelling and grammatical errors litter everywhere. Even her thought process leaves a lot to be desired. |

Foreigna2: Yes, and that is grammar which is a totally different issue from speaking with an accent, which is the topic of the thread. I actually know someone who speaks very well in English but is awful at writing in the same language. Errors everywhere. Many people have that problem, including some of those mocking her accent. |

Hahaha reminds me of a guy that started copying a girl's foreign accent for reasons I still don't understand . Worst part was, the accent sounded so funny I was trying hard not to laugh the whole time. This happened two weeks ago. Nigerians will grab any opportunity that'll make them sound "Americana". I think that's silly if you ask me. |

vickydevoka:Rooney speak Spanish too I once heard they are allowed to choice any language they want to learn in primary or secondary school as a compulsory course because must Europeans speak different languages. |

Kobicove: It is oga... I am not talking about written english but the oral one... Come to think of it, if not that she's brainless c.ronaldo and every other players that speaks bad english or english with accent, it's because english is not their first language unlike we Nigerians english is our first language and if you can't speak english then your schooling is a waste of time and money because english language is compulsory in Nigeria. Besides there is something they call syllables and oral english right from secondary school which is compulsory too. So stop saying all these to justify nonesence. Forget and be realistic Fact nigeria even have a personal english called the broken english aka pidgin before the ghanians picked it up. |

Goalnaldo: I don't find it funny funny because it's understandable that the country where they grew up it's not their official language... English is Nigeria official language and it's just like saying pogba speaks french with accent or bad french won't it be a slap to his face? Ronaldo grew up in portugal and portuguese is their official language not english so the girl is just plain brainless comparing her english with ronaldo... Well I don't expect a brain from a BBnaija actress anyway |

She doesn't owe anyone an apology for her accent,she's supposed to be proud of it |
Re: Mercy Eke Fires Back At Those Mocking Her Accent, I Lived & Schooled In Owerri by Tycyborg(m): 8:57pm On Jun 04, 2022 |
mercy87: Funny you knew english is nigerians first language but you try to make point and act ignorantly... Well it's alright I guess you are part of the people claiming Nigeria is bad but you forgot ignorance is the foundation of why it's bad not from the leaders alone but from everyone collectively and it's hard now to stay away from because it burrow dow to a lot of generations and only someone who think out of the box will move away from the burrowing circle. |

Foreigna2:Are we talking about grammatical error or accent? She speaks good English, just d accent. What's there? Haven't u seen an Hausa people speak English? U would mistake it for Arabic . Plz let her b. A foster gal staying with us hardly pronounces "L" If she wants to call malaria, she says manaria. Am talking about a big gal of 18-19yrs o. |
