governorudeh: Good evening House.
I booked my TB test with this link:
https://appointmentnigeria.iom.int
ABUJA is my venue. After filling my information, my application status was tagged as draft and UNPAID.
Those that applied for their test in Lagos got a leaflet informing them to pay they medical fees. I have applied but haven't received that of the Abuja.
My question is this, should I just log on to IOM website to collect the bank details meant for Abuja, or should I wait for them to send it like that of the Lagosians?
Please, I need your responses. The medical date they gave me is 26th May.
@dduchess @mimilyrics @Ifshr And other gurus.
Thank you in anticipation Hello, I have the same issue. Have you been able to resolve it. If so, please how did you solve it ![](/faces/huh.png) |

Romance / When Do You Get Very Comfortable With Your Partner? by alecx: 5:21pm On Apr 19, 2021 |
When two people are in a relationship, usually at the beginning they tend to ignore each other's flaws and try to present themselves as this "perfect" human to the other person.
I have been curious about knowing if people in a relationship ever let down their guards and become free with each other to the extent of not being shy about performing bodily functions like "peeing" and the likes in the presence of one another. Does it ever happen ? 1 Like |

Ah! You remind me of about 9/10 years ago when I started learning to speak Igbo as a final year student at UNN. I always understood Igbo and wrote perfectly (even having A1 in WAEC) but my speaking was very minimal, also being brought up in an English speaking home. I was very determined to perfect my speaking and put in dedicated effort into it. Back in my final year days at Nsukka, I started by pricing things with sellers in Igbo instead of in English as I would do previously. Then I gradually switched to Igbo or Engligbo rather with my friends I formerly spoke English with. Initially the accent was off and you could tell I was a learner. A few people would laugh at me but I ignored them and kept at it. Watching Igbo movies helped a lot. I improved greatly in about two years. I finished my NYSC and left for the United States for my masters and perfected over the years! It took me about 4/5 years to fully perfect my Igbo (similar to any Igbo or Yoruba child learning their language from infancy, it takes until a child is about 6 to 10 years to be fluent in their native language) and now I speak Igbo fluently like I was raised with it, even laced with Igbo proverbs and idioms. I can go for minutes speaking Igbo with barely English words. You’d never know I didn’t speak it as a child. Life is really all about determination.
Put the effort into speaking it. To learn any language you need to practice speaking it. Say you were to go to a French school to learn French, the tutor will emphasize on the speaking and pronunciation aspect of it. Reading it comes secondary. Thank you for sharing your experience, it is inspiring. It's good to know that someone has also gone through what I am facing and came out successful. I'll keep on trying till I get it. |

That's good, I asked because of the suggestion I had in mind. One thing you can do is tell close friends/colleagues who speak fluently to regularly speak to you in Yoruba. Also, you'll need to make it a point of duty to regularly (and mindfully) respond in Yoruba. I notice that I personally prefer to speak in English but there are people around me who regularly speak in Yoruba (you can trust our people never to disappoint in this department) and I find that after three or four interactions, I start responding in Yoruba also. You may be laughed at initially due to your lack of fluency but that that will fade away over time. You can also follow movies or programs broadcasted in Yoruba and then you try to imitated phrases you typically would find challenging. You'll begin to flow well overtime. Thank you very much for this suggestion, I appreciate it. |

Where are you based? Do you have people around you who speak Yoruba fluently? I'm based in Osun state, I have someone who can but rather chooses to speak English. |

I am a Yoruba girl, I was brought up in an English speaking home, I learnt how to understand the language but I later realized when I was grown that I could not speak it. I can speak it but not fluently and I have trouble articulating my words since it doesn't come naturally.
I want to ask if it is still possible to learn how to speak the language fluently since I am in my twenties and I have found that it is very essential for day to day activities. Suggestions on improving my fluency in Yoruba language are welcome.
Thank you. |

Mine is the entire opposite of this. I was brought up with English and now I want to learn how to speak Yoruba properly. I'm scared of speaking it because I don't know how to speak it well but I wish to know how to speak it well. |
