Dumb US Radio Personality Says Nigerians Can’t Speak English by Stardomboy: 4:07pm On Jan 14, 2017 |
US artist and radio personality Joshua Nicks aka J Nicks says Nigerians can’t speak English. The Atlanta-based DJ also known as Stuey Rock made the comments during an interview with Migos who recently departed Lagos. J Nicks at the beginning of his show ‘The Durtty Boyz’, aired by Atlanta radio station Hot 107.9, said the American hip hop group went ”all the way to Nigeria” to put their home city on the map. He referred to the country as a place ”where they can’t even speak English” and ”don’t even know what’s the A [Atlanta]”, before asking Migos of their experience there. You can watch the full interview below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uh2ZIWF0xk Source: http://naijavibes.net/2017/01/dumb-us-radio-personality-says-nigerians-cant-speak-english/

He probably listened to one of Buhari's interviews on CNN before reaching his conclusion. Mr. Nicks, listen to the likes of Wole Soyinka before writing off ALL Nigerian. 2 Likes |

The facts remains that only about 20 percent of Nigerians can communicate properly in English language , most Nigerians speak a vernacular variation of English called pidgin while the rest just speak their native dialect .. If you doubt just take a walk to any ATM in Lagos and see the confusion that erupts when a regular ATM prompt is slightly changed I can never forget the time a bike hit my car in Lagos and I came out to talk with the bike man and he just kept staring at me without saying a word till I got pissed thinking he was being unremorseful and cocky till someone that could speak his language showed up and he started talking ,it was then I realised dude wasn't being cocky ,he just didn't understand what I was saying |

idupaul:The fact remains that you cannot punctuate properly. @ Topic: The Dj is a pathetic being. I mean, who judges a large group of people based on a few experiences he's had? He's lucky his ancestors made it out of the slave boat; else, he'd probably be just another Nigerian. |
