I won't waste my intellect on you anymore, you're not worth it, now I see why Ibime and the rest called you a fool. Ibime I sincerely owe you an apology for attempting to defend this empty head. I won't make that mistake twice.

What does Reno have to say about the name of his boss Goodluck Jonathan

Goodluck Jonathan is an African name, just like Bode George, Tammy Abraham, Jack Pepple, Rex Lawson, Andrew Jaja etc. It's a cultural something, leave am.

CAPdan21:
Omoh....you hear strange things in this section... It's acceptable for our culture to die out in a rabid attempt to promote unity of human race ...some takes here are so bad u wonder if the person saying it is even educated

The fool wants to unite human race.

donjazet:


This is not an excuse to not to learn your lingua franca. Every person on that list knows how to express themselves very well in English and use it to transmit their knowledge.

Furthermore, Our native languages are dying out and it's not necessarily a bad thing. Language is only afterall a means of communication. Different languages have always acted as a bridge in society.
An effect that highlights our differences as a specie.

If losing our languages mean we {humanity} get to be united as a whole. I'm all for it. Someday, one can get to any point of the globe and not be hindered by an inability to understand the other.

Which language will the United Human Race communicate in?

Another humongous imbecile_ who thinks it's foolish to push for an ideal world that is peaceful and united. Bunch of foolish tribal jingoist.

I think, dayo's point is that, it was not always so.

Before Europeans came to Africa, you would not see any name like Andrew, Lawson, Abraham, jack.
These names were acculturated. It's usually south south people that started answering the name of their colonizers and made it part of their cultural identity. Although same can be said for the converted christians and moslems who started answering Hebrew, Jewish and Arabic names like Emmanuel, John, Mohammed,Isaac etc. I'm assuming that's his position though.

And people liked this comment, smh, it is finished for africa, Nigeria mostly. But is there anything I write in English that you don’t understand, am I mixing any language to English I write. Bringing out errors or sometimes wrong sentences which you still understood is not correction but mental slavery. Get that.

iamoyindamola:

Lmao
Are you sure you understand his question

I understand his statement, he is trying to be rhetorical because Reno worked and fan Jonathan Goodluck which make his political statement sentimental, hence my less interest in his political affiliation.

It is ok to wish for the embolden but the truth is, they are all impossible, just like equality. A Utopian world is impractical and impossible to achieve in animals, worth more humans.

I'm sure I'm not the first person to tell you that reading your posts induces headache sometimes.
From poor punctuations to wrongful spelling and mixing up words.
Yes bro, you do fail in your communication. Yours is not the occasional spelling mishap or autocorrect blunder but an inability to master the language all of us here understand and use to transmit information to each other. I'm not actually trolling here, I'm pointing out a particular weakness.

People don't make sense when they say, it's not necessary learning English. Well, pick a language then that all of us will understand. It's not mental slavery, it's common sense.

Nothing is impossible my dear. All it takes is resolute commitment and a shared understanding.

If you told European women 100 years ago that soon, they'll be playing the same gender roles as men in the society. They won't believe it. They'll be okay with staying at home, looking after the household. Things change when enough voices are heard.

If you claim not to understand me then how come you reply my comment. It’s mental slavery, you will not know now. China that are doing well today didn’t need English to become relevant but ideas and creativity. Afrobeats is selling today but they mostly use pigin English, Yoruba and Igbo, that’s the advantage of being yourself. So you saying you don’t understand what I say but you can communicate with pigin English is pure mental slavery. If you are British I will understand. As far as you are not British or American no way your English can be 100 percent, starting from intonation, diction and pronunciation so you pointing out my mistakes when you are not British is “I too know mentality” or probably to embarrass me which make me laugh. Imagine you correcting my English in front of a British man, you have automatically devalue yourself not me. You will know this later in life.

Then you still don't understand the question
It's actually a simple question not politically motivated
According to the picture you posted, Reno said we should be not be an African man with English name
Good luck is an English name , Jonathan is also another English name

How's goodluck an African name
Simply put it those that were slaves to the whites picked some of their names

Maybe when rapture happens and 666 is upon the world, there will be an absolute unity among those that doesn't want the mark. Hence there will be one language for every one to communicate with.

Oh now I understand where you are going with this statement. Why didn’t you include Ebele which is his native name that he normally add.

its d reason why I prefer Chelsea's games be postponed till tinz fully settle down in d league... Chelsea's current form is irritating and scary at d same time...d boiz need to relax and come back fully fit,,coz if we continue like D's,,we may fall 10points behind city at d end of January

This is where you will know that everything have gone south for us.

Ever since we started dropping points, the few matches we managed to win was wrestled from the jaws of a stalemate.

We are in shambles right now really.

Why are you people dragging donjapete he is correct

If you remove language limitations, cultural differences and religious differences, we can all unite as one

Besides what's special about languages? That requires preservation, if you think that it's efficient to be battling translations in the future because you can't let go of some tribal affiliations, you are a joker

English language is like a river, it welcomes terms and words from other languages, it has been diluted so much that it's no longer what its original speakers used

If the argument is which is better or easier to learn, then that's a different conversation but we humans need only 300k words to communicate properly

In a day you don't use more than 2000 words, if a language is broadly used and it's easily accessible, I don't see any reason why it shouldn't become a general language for the world


All these tribal hype and cultural protections aren't helping anybody, they provide aesthetic appeal and sow unnecessary divisions among people that don't have any reason to be divided

iamoyindamola:

Nobody was slaves to the whites my man. Ijaws were slave traders and palm oil traders and picked English names for ease of trade.

Just like English pick surnames based on trade or certain characteristics eg Shearer is the vocation of someone who shears sheep while Smith is a common name for a blacksmith. Surnames are alien to most cultures until they are forced to pick one for legal and trade reasons, same with Ijaw people

When you understand the fundamentals of human psychology (the working of the human mind), and the factors that impact our thought process, you will realize that it is impossible to achieve equality or any of the Utopian ideologies you are wishing for. The human mind is created to question everything and not group think. Hierarchy is inevitable because it provides the balance required to sustain life in any living thing. The human race will continue to make advancements, however, it is not indicative of communal objectives to achieve a utopian society.

Good, that is because it’s just a mere language, nothing special, just like every other languages out there. So holding the language to high esteem just because the original owner control the economy of the world is myopic. Are you aware there was a time Hebrews, Greek languages dominated the world before English hijacked it. Time will come English language will no longer be yardstick for anything but a mere language.

Utopia impossible? I thought that roland was an optimist Celtic and arsenal

I don't want to type plenty but how many coups did America sponsor trying to undermine socialism and communism in the world?

Utopia is very possible, the world today produces enough food to feed the entire planet but people want to have while others suffer because society supports it

Last last the world belongs to all of us, forget country, tribe or religion, it's ours, when we are ready, we will do away with the societal structures that America have built to benefit themselves alone
