I’m a major in the US Army served since 2010 and I turned 34 in July, I don’t consider myself funny but my accent makes my peers and soldiers thinks I’m funny. Everyone looks forward to seeing me talk either during meetings, formations or safety briefings. They mimic and laugh when I give the command “Battalion Attention” 😂😂😂 I started by copying my uncle’s accent who served in the Nigerian Army “Attttenntion, atease ”, but it cracks them up every time I say it like that, and then I adopted it. Now everyone loves to hear say that in the most Nigerian accent ever 😅
This country called Nigeria is so special. our haters k ow that very well, and that's why they keep having sleepless night over our success, influence, fame, energy, liveliness, culture.... just name it.
The Nigerian English accent is similar for all educated Nigerians but the poorly educated and non-educated ones have diverse accents depending on where they are from and where they spent their formative years.
@eluaguwilliam not true at all. The illiterate or unexposed ones have their thick, indigenous accent. That's why you can recognise the Ibadan person when he speaks, the ijaw person, the fulani person, the ekiti person. The pronunciation of indigenous words comes to play in the local person's accent but the eposwd person will incorporate the right one. There's the Nigerian accent where you wouldn't decipher where the person comes from, and that's when you ask where they come from.
It disgust me that few Nigerians makes the world to call us all sort of names. They got an opportunity and block the opportunity the world present to us... Nigeria is truly bless.
Another important point is that Nigeria was colonized by the British so we speak what we call the queen’s English, that makes us to pronounce the letter ‘t’ in words. We don’t call water warrer like the Americans do. There is no point trying to imitate how our host countries pronounce things. We should be proud of ourselves. Interestingly, the people we try desperately to imitate like our ways of doing things more than we can imagine. I live in America and I know the kind of compliment I get whenever I wear our fabrics. They also love our food. I have an American friend who would put ẹba side by side with rice and eat with his fingers 🤣.
No lie, na true talk, I like the will Smith one the most. It's very interesting and touching when I see people who love and imitate Nigerians, their food e.t.c I love seeing people who are no Nigerians or from Africa but they speak our accent or language and they speak it fluently. It shows that racism is reducing and we are accepting each other no matter who we are, it's touching.
Correction ma, the Dahomey Women Warrior movie is from Benin Republic, Cotonou. Not Benin City, Edo state, Nigeria. Please edit if you can before more people watch and comment or accept the same error. Thank you
@@CheerfulbushmanDahomey where Waring with the Oyo kingdom. That doesn't mean Dahomey was in Nigeria. Saying Dahomey was in Nigeria is wrong. It was never in Nigeria. Though we didn't have colonial borders at the time , but it was not located in Nigeria. It was in Benin Republic.
@@Skillashy No I didn't said Dahomey is located in NIG. I just wanted to draw ur attention to the fact that the movie is related to both NIG and BENIN rep. Dahomey is this present day BENIN REP
@@CheerfulbushmanIt wasn't in Nigeria cos there was nothing like Nigeria back then however there is Yoruba and Benin influence present in Dahomey. Firstly is because Oyo controlled their region for years before they rebelled. Secondly and with connection to Benin in Edo State. The People of Dahomey took permission to name their nation after the Kingdom of Benin from the Oba of Benin. If they were colonized by the English the difference won't have been like it is and it probably would have identified with Nigeria.
@Skillashy Point of correction; the kingdom Dahomey was part of the old Oyo empire. The old Oyo empire spans the whole of Dahomey before the colonials came and split all these regions into different countries.
That history is not accurate. The Kingdom of Dahomey was made of today Benin, Togo and part of Niger. Meanwhile Nigeria was part of Benin Kindom with Cameroon.
Dahomey was under the Alaffin of OYO Empire before Africa was divided so technically its was under Present day Nigeria. I am a Prince of the Dynasty and that y I understand the story.
For me o, I am not sensitive if any non-Nigerian says we are aggressive and loud. I don't feel offended at all. Instead, I accept it with grace😊.
God bless the Land of Nigeria and Nigerians worldwide 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Nigerians be yourself.
Father hear and rep your country.
Proudly Naija🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
God bless Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
Trevor Noah got it 😂😂

Wow😂😂. This was so interesting to read. I was like, where’s the rest?😅. Loved it. Thanks for sharing😂❤️
To be honest, nigeria military is on another level. They adopt the northern nigeria way as a normal accent in the military
@belladona001

@@belladona001 I wish we could hear you🤣🤣🤣 my Congolese family always enjoy me using my Nigerian accent

Will Smith sounded Eastern African, its no way nigerian.
The comedian sounded more nigerian.
That thing Will Smith did at the beginning of this clip is NOT NIGERIAN! As a Nigerian, I protest😂
🤣😂even me I don’t what that was o. But pls Let’s give him E for effort😅
Dahomey is in present day Benin republic. Coming from a Nigerian who studied history

As a French literature student, From late 1600s to early 1900s it was Dahomey, in present day is Bénin Republic
That history is not accurate. The Kingdom of Dahomey was made of today Benin, Togo and part of Niger. Meanwhile Nigeria was part of Benin Kindom with Cameroon.
Every foreigner i know, say at least a Nigerian word in our Nigerian accent
Dahomey was not in Nigeria. It was in Benin Republic. Close to present day Cotonou. Not Nigeria.
Thank you for the correction
Dahomey was under the Alaffin of OYO Empire before Africa was divided so technically its was under Present day Nigeria. I am a Prince of the Dynasty and that y I understand the story.
@@princeabdulsalami4595✌️✌🏼
