It's just the same way their are some words in ur local language u don't know but a non-native speaker who studied the language knows .

For example if u ask a random Yoruba person what is "ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀rin", he or she may not know but someone who as a non-native speaker that learnt Yoruba may casually tell u it is 700.

I know a man in his late 70's whose both parents are from Cross river state, but he was born and bred in Lagos. This man can read Yoruba bible without having any difficulty pronouncing any word. He even corrects his age mate whom are native Yoruba speakers when they read and don't get the Yoruba pronunciations right

Most of the footballer's on the show didn't attend conventional schools. They mostly attended academies where they are more interested in learning football than listening when a language instructor is telling them the meaning of INCULCATE.

I gave an example of a Yoruba word that most average Yoruba person didn't really know despite studying Yoruba to WAEC level. It's not like a Yoruba person hasn't heard the word before, he just doesn't really care about the word and what it means.

I don't even blame Richards and Carragher. Na Kate Abdo who is meant to be the broadcast journalist that should hide her face. It means that apart from being Henry's work wife she no add any value to that set up. cheesy

What's this talk about the Actors Guild of Nigeria cancelling the producer of the movie the Pope guy went for before the unfortunate incident?

How is cancelling her and barring other actors from working with her going to change anything? The video made before the unfortunate incident showed everyone in that video was glad to risk their lives nit wearing life jacket. They were all grinning and smiling making videos without having life jacket on.

I don't think the producer could've forced the life jacket on them. I don't understand why they are making the producer of the movie a scapegoat. It's more like the people are angry and looking for who to transfer aggression to

To be fair, she is responsible for their safety on set and therefore she should have provided life jacket

An eyewitness is reporting it was a crash between two boats so lifejacket may not have saved some individuals anyway. Death could be a result of impact injuries

How do people enter boats without a jacket sef?.

I thank God for Lagos sha. Even with how shabby the boats are, it is mandatory to wear a life jacket.

She is responsible for their safety and should have provided life jackets. If the movie producer insists on them wearing life jackets, most of them will comply. Junior Pope, who appeared scared to the max about drowning in one of the circulating clips, would surely have made use of a life jacket if he had the option.

It is a recurring them in Nigeria, whereby people who should ensure the safety of their workers do not uphold their end of the bargain. That leads to electrical workers suffering electrocutions, and construction workers suffering falls, etc.

This is common means of transport in our sides. These children probably enter boats regular like this, but if a school proprietor puts them on boat without lifejacket, liability is on her if shït goes left

This boat is fairly safe though, compared to flying boat that Junior Pope entered. Flying boat is like jetta, any small thing, it could overturn

An average yoruba person who study up to waec level wiltl definitely know what "eedegberin" is except the person is a dullard cos 'onka yoruba' is taught from elementary level to secondary level. Most people now don't know/care the meaning of some words nowadays cos core yoruba is spoken only in some places in osun,ogun,oyo etc as speaking english is what importance is placed on. Words like "ifaara, isipo, gbena-gbena," etc may sound alien to most average people tho cos there are some words I've heard that sound foreign to me

Last time I used a ferry there, I checked the speed the ferry moved at and it was 110 to 120km/h. Such speed with that rickety boat, my confidence was very low.

I was the last person to come on board and my life jacket was the shabbiest; they had given me a rag.
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Ellexy: 12:36pm On Apr 11
So apparently the make up artist and the sound guy on the same boat are still missing in the river and their bodies yet to be found. Nawa oo.

Check your speedometer again. This is lamba or your fear speaking

Ferry top speed is 20 to 60km/HR (high speed ferry) and the most advanced and fastest ferry in the world has a top speed of 58 knots which is 107 km/hr

The speedometer app on my phone is 98% accurate on measuring vehicle speed. I assume it will be the same for a ferry.

You can check the Ikorodu ferry terminal that ply Lekki, VI and Ajah routes.

The speedometer app on my phone is always accurate. Though it was my first time of trying it out on a ferry.

I am talking about the Ikorodu ferry boat, not this type that Pope used.
