watered: Excellent what? This guy is claiming infallibility and you're here praising him. English remains a borrowed language, and as such a wide margin for error should be allowed. |

When they speake this grammer, we asssume the meaning. but we realise the meaning of this grammar after they have commited crimes. then we don't have the balls to sue them to court because we gave them our support based on assumption. I think is right time they begin to screen their grammer |

Laitesmart: Working or living with people like you must be hellish. I pity everyone who has the misfortune of relating with your like one way or the other. I know your type and you are always disgusting. It is peeps like you that will bear grudges with your neighbour and not greet him for days because you see him doing better than you. Pls don't change. Remain as you are. |

bushdoc9919: My friend even those that English is there only language still make mistakes. Some times i feel there is no perfect way of speaking English as long you able to communicate your message with who ever you communicating with, and he or she understands you go to go. I have had the opportunity to interact with people from different countries and can tell you Nigerians is way way better in terms of spoken English compare to other people even those ones that English is there only language. There are better things to worry about with the nominees rather than worry about little mistakes like how they speak a language they have to learn. Just saying 2 Likes |

It seems the second point as regards "COMITY OF NATIONS" is misplaced. The phrase was actually used in the right context by Dr. Kayode Fayemi. According to the Merriam Webster Dictionary, the former Governor used the phrase in line with its second meaning. This is the definition given by Merriam Webster Dictionary: comity of nations 1 : the courtesy and friendship of nations marked especially by mutual recognition of executive, legislative, and judicial acts 2 : the group of nations practicing international comity 1 Like |

timijoseph01: guy you are so on point, like "know full well' being the correct line rather than 'knowing fully well' it just sounds wrong |

Must u mention the names of those that made the mistake? Since u have said some ministerial nominees, y not live their names alone? MR Know ALL. U tried shaa. |
Re: Grammatical Murders Committed During Ministerial Screening - Farooq Kperogi by Badejotemitope: 11:21am On Oct 19, 2015 |
I enjoin everyone here to look up the definition of "comity of nations" in the dictionary before we conclude that Dr. Kayode Fayemi was wrong. |
