Everything shouldn't be news.

Yoruba folks should not jump into the gutter with IPOB tribalists in point-scoring threads.

You are better than all this nonsense, and this is the 21st century.

This is not you. I know you guys don’t even feel good doing this, but you feel compelled to because of Igbo tribalism here.

They are collective narcissists, so whatever you throw at them gives them the ATTENTION and CONFLICT which is what all narcissists crave. It’s called ‘narcissistic supply’.

This news is no big deal. We all speak their English language and Americans haven’t started a thread online to boost themselves because of it.

Alaye shift. It's a big achievement for the Yoruba Language!!! If it doesn't mean anything to you, it does to us. Some Yoruba lecturers will definitely gain employment through this and lives will be changed.

Moreso, peradventure Yoruba becomes a country of its own, things like this helps the reputation of the country already. So, Bro, it means a lot to the Language and the people.

Ibo Language being learnt in China is a beginning of good thing for the Ibo Language and the people too.

Small boy talking rubbish.

Do you think it’s today that foreigners began recognising Nigerian languages and Nigerian culture?

Do you know that as early as the 1980s, Things Fall Apart by Achebe was required reading in schools from America to India to the Soviet Union and more, and was translated to over 80 languages?

Do you know that they have taught Nigerian languages in some American universities since the 1980s at least?

Anyway, you be Indomie generation, so all I’m saying is Greek to you.

Outta here.

Celebration of mediocrity.

Nigeria is falling yet you guys are celebrating mediocrity. Why not divide the country so Yorubas have their own country? What are you afraid of?

You're always promoting Yorubas, which is fair enough. Igbos promote Igbo, so why are we pretending in this one Nigeria?

We're just wasting our time, the only thing why we refused to accept dissolution of this contraption is Niger Delta oil

If they give me power today and ask me to break Nigeria, I will strike it immediately and break it off.

There is nothing one in this Nigeria, we are just tolerating one another. If I have the power, I will pack every other tribe living in Yorubaland and dump them in their respective states so they can have their own separate country.

But I am but one person. So stop trying to talk to me about breaking Nigeria, I am not an obstacle to that.

@bolded
How many UK lecturers gained employed to teach English language in our university? Abi don't we have English language as a course in our universities?

That guy told you nothing but the truth, we shouldn't be celebrating this nonsense.

Nigeria is an English speaking country, but we still have to take an IELTS course before we can school in UK schools, yet, you don't see UK people make noise about it...
