emmasege:You might not believe this but Yoruba is ready for war. I mean this with all seriousness. Ever since the ile-ife incident, Yorubas have been arming themselves, waiting for any possible reprisal from the north. Nigeria is at the edge. A rash action can tip it over. |

These Yoruba monarchs like groove and travel pass anything that is why no one respect them. Do you see Olu of Warri or the Oba of Benin or the Monarchs from the east gallivanting everywhere. Least respected monarchs in Nigeria |

Adebowale89: Be quiet there. All these so called Monarchs do is travel and attend weddings/parties and sell Asoebi and marry. No-one respects them. Let them be deceiving themselves and people like you. Making mockery of the revered Monarchy system in Nigeria |

ElsonMorali: No, we shouldn't abandon our native languages. The official language in Yorubaland should be Yoruba. The official language in Igboland should be Igbo. E.T.C. Pidgin English is a creole language and its an African creation. It's not a white man's language. Of course, western authority over your mind makes you consider Pidgin as inferior to English language. |

Toronto123: I think you should maintain decorum first. your useless senators representing your constituencies that's spending the tax payers money abroad. how many times have u condemned them? monarch is a social representation of a particular region. this is not a form of govt. you don't expect such young king to sit down in the palace just as your normal chorus olu of warri. everyone has their choice the president left Nigeria for some weeks, what do u say about his absence that's making people to commit suicide due to his leadership negligence you youth leave priority things for unnecessary things. smh 1 Like |

[quote author=musicwriter post=54873472] No, we shouldn't abandon our native languages. The official language in Yorubaland should be Yoruba. The official language in Igboland should be Igbo. E.T.C. So If the above is true, then who's going to speak the pidgin then? Pidgin English is a creole language and its an African creation. It's not a white man's language. Of course, western authority over your mind makes you consider Pidgin as inferior to English language. Pidgin is a corruption of the original language. It is not exactly a new language as such. It is spoken by the less literate and those of the lower stratum of the society mostly. Are you saying that this is what our children should be taught in school? |

ElsonMorali Let me tell you a little about the English language you adore. When two languages collide something called a creole language evolves. That's exactly how English language itself evolved!!. Pidgin English is a creole language originating from collision of European's and our languages. Today, Pidgin is a language in its own right like Jamaican Patois and many other creole languages. For your information, Britain was also mostly colonized by Germans, French, Spaniards, Rome, within the 4th-5th century AD. During their time of slavery they also spoke a mixure of English and the other languages of their captors. But, once they regained their freedom, they banned all foreign languages in the entire British isle, and adopted their native English language (which was then 40% local and 60% foreign language) just as Pidgin is today. The year was 1362 and it was only then that English became an official language. Therefore, what we learn today as English is just a standardized creole language like Pidgin!!. When our eyes open to our stupidity, we will ban English in our lands and pay attention to our native languages. Many Asian nations who were also colonized had already made that change, as I said earlier. My people, open your eyes!. English was not originally an official language!!. It became an official language only in 1362!!!. The origin of English language. Everybody should see these videos, it's under 20 minutes, all. The evolution of English language. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIzFz9T5rhI The origin of English language. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEaSxhcns7Y The history of English language. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njJBw2KlIEo How languages evolve. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWDKsHm6gTA |
