If you don't appreciate good things, it is time to go to your parents/ villages to seek spiritual solutions.... I can see some disgruntled elements above asking what's the big deal . If na bad news about the country they will be happy! I wonder how you want to prosper in a land that you despise

So? We should clap for him??
YES. Because to learn a minor language that is only spoken in a small part of Africa who don't have any major influence in the world is something that should be applauded.

This guy is an half caste so it's not a big deal. The dad is Yoruba and the Mum is white. He's not so fluent but just little passable Yoruba sentences. It's the Dad's sister that insists he must learn how to speak and she's been doing a good work lately and that's how you are seeing this video. To be excited when a foreigner speak your language fluently is common, even among other nations especially the Whites and the Chinese. I know a Nigerian guy on Tiktok that live in China. The guy always draw crowds of Chinese people all around him where ever he goes especially markets area cos he speaks mandarin fluently like a Chinese man. Some even thought he deliberately dye himself black and insists in touching him to be sure he's black. You know black people ain't common seeing around in China. In fact, China took a long time to start relating with Black Africa unlike western countries.

Not surprising tho
The lady even did more of the talking

That aside, the objective is simple, bar population, and by heterogeneity of speakers, Yoruba is the most widely spoken African language in Nigeria and second behind only Swahili in Africa

I'm always happy to see Non-Yorubas speak Yoruba even more fluently than they do their native Languages(Some of those grew up in the SW)

By 2070, we should have successfully ensure that half of the Southern Nigerians are far more fluent in Yoruba.

Cultural Imperialism is F***** real
Fulani Imperialism is really real

Normal things. During my days at OAU, we had American students on exchange program taking some classes at the Arts faculty blowing Yoruba like no man's business.

Osun Oshogbo festival is starting in a few days as well. Lots of white and latin Yorubas who are also IFA and Osun devotees would be arriving on pilgrimage from Cuba, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Venezuela, Mexico, USA, Trinidad e.t.c Hotels in Ibadan, Ilesha, Oshogbo, ife, Ede e.t.c would all be fully booked.
I went to OAU so i can buttress wat u r saying
Many of them then

You be mumu man. I have a west African friend that can speak fluent Chinese, the Chinese national are always surprised anytime my friend strike up a conversation with them in Chinese and they are always happy to speak with him. It's for people to be surprised when someone from a different race speaks their language given that the language is not well spoken outside their country.

There is no big deal in speaking English language because it is a colonial language and was forced on people. If you can speak fluent Mandarin as a foreigner and you have never been to China before, a Chinese man would be surprised. Same as other languages that are not well spoken outside their country or territory.

That's my confusion, it's interesting seeing a visitor speaking your language but this oyibo man did not speak anything here. He only greeted with Yoruba which is the first thing to learn in a language, it was the woman that continues the talking. They poster really exaggerated things here

Why should he call you aunty and why should that be such a big deal to you?

Nigerians are always trying to downgrade the self-perception of other people just so they can more easily take advantage of them and exploit them lipsrsealed
