Kalu Receives Umeonyirioha, First Igbo Language Lecturer In Oxford University by Metrix147: 10:50am On Oct 18, 2022 |
Chief Whip of the Senate, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu on Monday played host to the first Igbo language lecturer in the University of Oxford in England, Mazi Emmanuel Ikechukwu Umeonyirioha. ABN TV reports that Umeonyirioha broke the internet earlier in the year when he announced in a post via his Twitter handle about his induction as first Igbo Language lecturer in the premier university. Sen. Kalu, representing Abia North senatorial district received Umeonyirioha in Abuja where he extolled him for promoting and standardizing Igbo vocabularies. He posted via his verified Facebook page, "Glad to welcome the first ever Igbo Language lecturer at the prestigious University of Oxford, England, Maazi Emmanuel Ikechukwu Umeonyirioha (PhD). "Emmanuel is a Pan-Africanist that strives in organizing professional teams to aid in developing, promoting, and standardizing Igbo vocabularies to be used in tech, medical field, science etc. #Igboamaka" Source: https://abntv.com.ng/news/sen-kalu-receives-dr-umeonyirioha-first-igbo-language-lecturer-in-oxford-university/ Cc; lalasticlala, Mynd44, Seun, OAM4J

How is Oxford a premier university? "First Igbo language lecturer" in 2022 at a reputable university like Oxford sounds somehow. It makes it sound as if Igbo language is a language already left behind and will never catch up.. |

Conrod:Smh. Most of you struggle with comprehension. My advice is that you devote more time to study hard and quit the social media. You guys are not growing and learning this way. Let me break down my earlier post: The writer was on a shameless promotion of the individuals and relegated the Igbo language. It did not escape my detection because I know the writer is wrong and could have done better. That guy is not the first person to lecture Igbo language in a foreign university and definitely not even in UK universities.He may even be wrong but emphasis on oxford university makes it look like others lecturing Igbo and other universities offering Igbo are irrelevant. You young Igbo dudes should defend positive claims and correct nappropriate stereotype of your tribe in an intelligent manner. Do not sell your tribe short because of your hatred for others, impatience , poor comprehension and rudeness. I was actually protesting against a wrong impression the writer created by selling short the Igbo language. I am a Nigerian and have a stake in defending a Nigerian language which is one of our national assets. |
