Mustack: There are many my brother. A good number of words without original Yoruba meaning. For example: Address = Adiresi Pan = Paanu Christ = Kristi Jesus = Jesu etc |

Are you for real? Don't you see many public notices in Lagos written in Yoruba language? There are many newspapers in Yoruba being sold from Kwara to Lagos States. Mustack: |

nstr: If you understand market targeting and the real meaning of communication (not just blowing grammar), you will know that there may be nothing wrong with the spelling. Don't be surprise that the writer may be well conversant with the correct spelling in English but understood the need of his/her immediate environment and .chose to write that way. There are many Hausa, Yoruba and even Igbos that can't relate with words written in English. |

oyatz:It is called selective blindness. Typical of his kind. If such a kid shows you his result, you'd be amazed he has the guts to drag others over their poor diction and grammar. |

nstr:. - I cannot find in the write-up that it is being used in "every shop and sales stands". - The writer "isnt targeting any Hausa". How are you sure about that? I guess you can read the mind of the writer! - "Just accept that whoever wrote those made a very Big blunder". No! I do not just accept falacies and conjectures without logic or facts. - The writer didn't write it in an exam situation. He/she wrote it in front of his shop! Yes, I can write it in an exam situation if the paper is Hausa language or don't you know that people write exams in Hausa language too? 2 Likes |

The advert was written in Hausa NOT English and you are still complaining. There are many spoken and written Igbo words that are similarly derived from English language e.g Tabulu from the English word, Table. There is nothing concerning Buhari in this matter. He is not the shop owner and the Shop owner hasn't seen Buhari before. FakeManna: |

nstr:You sound so dumb! The northerners mostly communicate in their local dialect. He's not advertising for you, he's doing it for his people who mostly communicate in Hausa. I think the southerners are suffering from inferiority complex. 1 Like |
