Better an original accent than a fake one any day. I love people who have pride in their identity. Fake accents are a huge turn off for me. 9 Likes |

lol Is it a must we must know how to speak English? My accent is very local and my girl loves it that way. I am in my house, come and beat me!! But jokes apart; When you pay good money to learn diction, you would wana compromise because a lady is gonna see you as fake. I speak 3 foreign languages, and I apply the necessary diction to each of them. 2 Likes |

IamSINZ: Lol, I don't know what he sounds like but I'm sure I'd love it. There's nothing more ridiculous sounding than a guy with an American accent, when he's not even seen the doors of an airport, talkless of travelling. Even if he's travelled, why would you wanna get rid of something that should be your badge of honour? Maybe I'm too proud of my roots but I'd never change how I speak just to sound worldly & well-travelled. Reason I just wanna spit on anyone with a phony accent. 4 Likes |

ZarZar: Couldn't have said it better myself. I despise those who love sounding American (because it makes them look cool and worldly) . That's why black Americans ridicule Africans " because we want to be them ". 2 Likes 1 Share |

Lionessza: Exactly! That's actually one of the 1st things I pay attention to when I meet a guy. Any fakeness, don't care how cute he is, my interest drops to below zero in a flash. Who wants to be with a giant counterfeit with no pride? Yuck! 2 Likes |

Gosh how I hate people with phony accents. I met one guy the other day and he was just speaking all funny. He asked for my name,I told him.The way he 'englishized' the name ehn I was like c'mon bro I don't think that's the name I told you. For me,just have the normal Nigerian accent with correct tenses and you're good to go. 4 Likes 1 Share |

ZarZar: Same here girl, i can't stand a man who thinks being fake is being cool ...it makes me lose what ever respect I thought I had for him. It's even worse when they emulate the "thuggish " demeanour and start licking their lips, dammit I wish I could bury idiots like that alive when they start talking to me . I don't mind nor care about them, when they mind their own business and stay far away from me. 1 Like |

Lionessza: Lol, it's like looking through the mirror. Same here! I can't even begin to describe the amount of disgust I feel. Don't fucking "Yo" me! Clown! How other women find guys like that attractive, is beyond me. I'd rather date a guy that's original with an authentic accent, just as long as his articulation is on point. All the "My nigga, my dawg" guys can go straight to hell. 1 Like |

ZarZar: You're missing the point hun, the OP is talking about unpleasant local accents not phony foreign accents. Let's face it, some accents are not just it! If you haven't heard Obasanjo's voice, I'm quite sure you must've heard Buhari Now let's be honest, Fulani doesn't exactly sound like Spanish 2 Likes |

ZarZar: Lol. I remember about a week back , we were sitting at Spur waiting for our food. This attention seeking fool starts yelling " yo everybodi listen up , this ma gal right? And I luv her ya know what I mean so I wanchyall to witness me proposing to her . .) And he started proposing and you should have seen the look on people's faces when that idiotic girl said yes with a smile . I just couldn't take it,i was so disgusted as if he was proposing to me . We had to take our food home , I had lost my fuckn apetite with looking at all the Gold chains and sagging pants. And the worst thing he kept looking at everyone smiling and licking his lips like we were his friends . I agree with the bolded. 1 Like |

Most people on here are missing the point. So, back to the topic, if he is heavily accented, i'll date him only if: 1. He's Yoruba. 2. Rich as fck. 3. Lives in Nigeria. Lagos to be precise. Lekki/Ikoyi/V.I to be more precise. 4. That's it. 1 Like |

IamSINZ: I'm not missing any point because if or when you ditch your natural accent, what do you replace it with? Most often opt for a foreign one, usually, American. To me, that is more unattractive than any "unpleasant local accent" a guy may have. In fact, I prefer him raw & unpolished, as I find the originality more attractive than any lah di dah way of speaking that's fake. They say never say never, but on this one I stand my ground, I'd never date a guy that's ashamed of who he is & where he is from. Rock your natural accent & some of us will see the uniqueness in it & appreciate you even more for keeping it real. Just brush up on the English though because a man that can't express himself well in English, is another huge turn off for me. We're in the 21 century, come on, speak the universal language at least, to show you've been through the school gates. That is all that matters TO ME. Lastly, IMO, there's no such thing as "unpleasant local accent". That's just inferiority complex speaking , which is exactly why some of us are unattracted to guys with unoriginal accents. Pathetic! 4 Likes |

No such thing as a Local Accent Accent is an accent Now Nigerians doing the American accent is way worse than speaking Ibadan Yoruba.. Only the fake American accent I find highly irritating ( especially the one who ain't even seen airport ! Peak ) |

fake accent is a huge turn off for me. Just know how to express yourself well. sometime ago, I read that the Nigerian accent is the fifth sexiest in the world. The outside world rates us higher than we rate ourselves. Inferiority complex is the primary reason people ditch their accent for foreign ones. |
