I watched a particular young man who came to zion ministries here in Nigeria,he spoke so fluently that even Prophet Ebuka Obi himself was amazed and everyone was glad to have him around, that was possible because his parents programed them properly,this one we just saw is a fault from their parents,this is my humble opinion
Apama charity begins at home. Your daughter Zimchi cannot speak Igbo language fluently. Make a video in Igbo with Zimchi let's see how Zimchi speaks Igbo fluently.
First of all don't put all the blame on the children, they grew up there and their mother is obviously a white woman meaning it was up to the father to instill the culture in them but he clearly failed. My cousins abroad can speak igbo fluently while I that grew up in Nigeria can't even speak Igbo, my father never taught me and my siblings, and my mother is from the north. My dad was never really at home because of work that's why my siblings and I couldn't learn the language and so I have taken it upon myself to learn it on my own. The children can also learn on their own from UA-cam and several apps for learning Igbo if their father cannot teach them but this kind of problem is always because of the parent not the child.
Like we saynin my country from central africa its women who are the bearers of traditions and pass it down. That's why we call it mother tongue. It's usually mothers that teach the language to children, even tho the man does his part but it's the mom that keeps the tradition up. Reasons why in my trine we don't really do interracial
Parents, please, let's expose our children to the great IGBO language and other IGBO beautiful customs. The IGBO language is one of the bests in the world and we have some beautiful customs that are second to none.
I love this clip and want to do more of things like this, so we will not lost our identity am a Yoruba man that love every culture in Nigeria, continue with the good work it takes a village to raise a child.
Good I have raised this before on chat for him to stop speaking PIGIN ENGLISH to her daughter. But he never responded because he is even far worse than these ones in abroad.
Rubbish. Languages are learned when you are Zimchis age. If you miss it you have missed it. Do you realize that I have family members who are in Port Harcourt just close to Aba Abia state but can't speak Igbo language today. You don't know Zimchis future. She may have the opportunity to travel overseas as a teenager and it will be over
I am a Black American and Both of my children can pronounce their with PROPER ANNUNCIATION. I drill them constantly about their village, State and the Authenticity of the Igbo culture and tradition. Chioma and Chigozie 😂❤
In UK we have ICNS and other igbo cultural societies that these parents should try and join their kids /family up to so they can communicate within thr wider igbo community. As a UK born and breed my siblings and I were taught to speak and understand igbo I am so grratful my mother gave us this value
My cousins never visited Nigeria or Africa but Chika corrects you in igbo dialects more than our Igbo teachers, didn't stopped them from being perfect in English and Spanish
@@mudiazacademy327 its never a matter of coming back because there is a lot of people who never stepped out of the country's border yet can't speak any of the nature language in Nigeria.
That's beautiful. But you see, some of us left Nigeria at a very tender age and have spent reasonable number of years abroad before having these children, they've almost lost their language but God forbid. Igbo birikwaaaaaoooooo.
@@ajaegbuangel377 Yes I don't blame some people at all but you see those who tells you not to speak Igbo to their kids even in the heart of Igbo land, they're the problem we have, that mindsets
You can't blame any of them. They live in a foreign country and go to school in a foreign country. It is not easy raising up children in one's local language overseas. As they visited Nigeria. You don't have to embarrass them, hence they will not like coming again to Nigeria. You should talk normally with them. They will appreciate and will always like to go to Nigeria and like to learn and study the language and culture.
Are there no Indians that live in the same so call foreign country too, that speaks their native language fluently? Black man and their black mentality.. justifying shitsss!
Most of our people fear that teaching them Igbo would affect their English. This is not true; young children can learn up-to seven languages at the same time.
I have a European relative born in the 1920s and he once told of all the foreigners he entertained ( probably the 1970s and 1980s) in his city for his business the Africans were the most fun. Especially the Nigerians.
Whats so funny. Many nigerians are not fluent in their english pronunciations, these children are expected to be fluent with Igbo pronunciations, I commend them they r respectful nd know their names handsome well built guyz
Applaud the parents. It's not easy raising kids abroad and not to talk of indoctrinate them into the motherland culture. It is a very daunting ordeal, so Please give the parents kudos for effort

Well, making fun of the children because they cannot speak a language they never heard while growing up is just going to create more stigma in their mind. Why not start with acceptance and love first.
This is what we are seeing in western world. It IS ONLY IN IGBO FAMILY THAT YOU WILL SEE IN WESTERN WORLD, WHETHER THEY ARE MARRIED TO FOREIGNERS OR THE SAME IGBOS that there children can either speak Igbo or even recognise their names or where their parents came from. Meet Yoruba families in western world in the same category, their children speaks Yoruba and knows how to greet you in Yoruba language and where their parents came from. I have come in contact with lots of Igbo people in western world. The names given to their children are ENGLISH NAMES. You can see that the father of these kids is EVEN ASHAMED of himself by not allowing them to answer the questions you were asking them because he knows he has FAILED as a father. They blame the country’s government where they live but that’s total lies. Igbo people are the only ethnic group that PREFER OTHER CULTURES THAN THERES. Shame- the same goes to that family in Imo, Anambra, Abia,Ebonyi, and Enugu SPEAKING ENGLISH and GIVING ENGLISH NAMES to their kids because they are not different to these ones. Change Igbo people, CHANGE.
Not only yoruba other people from different backgrounds Indians,Pakistan, I mean every other country but we from south south and south east chaììiiiiìi. I live in the uk so I know what am talking about. I feel so ashamed most times
Apama should keep quiet and stop bothering these kids born overseas. My question to Apama is what is the difference between these kids and his daughter Zimchi in terms of speaking Igbo language?
These kids were obviously not born and raised in Nigeria. I’m sure they’re very aware of where they’re from. When you go there, I don’t think you’d understand that culture either. Or speak with their accent. If the parents are happy with their children, you shouldn’t put them on the spot the way you did. They’re teenagers and you were very intimidating. Culture is not learned overnight and please don’t make their father feel uncomfortable either! Raise yours the way you want and let their parents do the same.
Is a very big shame that the father is not doing his job. And the father was even laughing about it. I feel pity for because this is coming back to leave in Nigeria. He is more or less not having a child.
The problem is you the parents, especially the igbo parents who don't want their children to speak igbo in the house always forcing them to speak English, at the end what do you expect, please don't blame the children, blame yoursel f😂😂😂
You have to provide special security for them, special clean surroundings free from certain diseases too, .... it feel so good to be in your original home 🏘️
I have been asking parents to speak their language at home to their children. They speak enough English in schools. We are loosing our languages even in Nigeria, especially the minority tribes. I LOVE THE VIDEO
Opi nna 😂😂😂this man is not helping his kids oo ,he is failing them by not teaching them Igbo language but it can still be managed now ,it’s not yet late
Mothers cause it’s called mothers tongue and they spend time with the children God bless my parents cause I grew up in Lagos and many think I grew up in the east, even my sister abroad still converse in igbo when we speak Let’s not lose our heritage
Make sure they come to Nigeria! To do what? A country that has no constitution and no pattern of life. Like somebody pointed out, your children cannot speak Igbo fluently. So blame yourself first
If they were with yoruba parents there'll be speaking yoruba. Even in Nigeria there are igbo kids who don't speak igbo. If you ask their father his name he'll probably tell you Napoleon Wilberforce.
It’s a shame honestly I grew up in Lagos and I’ve seen many like that lose their heritage God bless my parents that made Igbo speaking compulsory at home to the extent people think we grew up in the east Even my sis in Poland now, when we converse, it’s still in igbo
Leave them alone abeg. When you use igbotic accent to speak queen’s English, does anybody disturb you? Let them use their foreign accent to speak Igbo too. It’s allowed.
He is not a Chief.The gesture you wanted him to demonstrate is not for a kid. You did not direct him correctly. Additionally, you should blame the parents. How else are they supposed to know the language?
We can't blame anyone! We must stop trying to find faults in people. The question should be who's going to step up and lead the youth. Society especially Society in the USA has deceived our people regardless of race. It takes a village to raise the children.
Apama I don't agree with you that these kids cannot pronounce their names. They did their best. The only issue is that they have different accents being born in a different environment where Igbo is not spoken daily.
Ngor-Okpala Nweremmadu, Chief A1, before bring them home, or let them know history. I am from Elelem in Ngor-Okpala and many thanks to Apama for this expo, I believe there will be turn around history wise henceforth
Teach the children the ways of the Lord that is the most important, let their soul be saved , you teach them your culture or not, one day every thing will end in the grave and hell if they don’t know Jesus, teach them the way of the Lord.
Why do you blame anyone? It’s a matter of choice. If they are not interested ( the parents, that is), then so be it. There is no rule that says children of a particular tribe must be steep in that culture. There is no blame here.
You don't blame the parents if the children were born in the Western world or outside Nigeria. By virtue of where they were born, they are entitled to adopt the culture and language of the country in which they were born. It appears that these children are of mix race. Therefore it is difficult for the children and their mother or father who is not an indigene of Nigeria or Ibo to speak or communicate with the children in Igbo language. This is indirect racism taking place here unknowingly. We think only of our language and culture in a mix marriage. What about the culture of the other partner in the marriage who is not a Nigerian. It is good to suggest that the children should learn the Igbo language when they are young because children are naturally linguistics. Therefore it is the duty of the Nigerian partner in the marriage to organise teaching the children the Nigerian language of the Nigerian partner in that marriage if they so desired. Again it is to the children's advantage to learn one of the parents language if they are in the Western world or outside Nigeria. But where both parents are from the same place and country, the parents should speak to their children in their own Nigerian language. Definitely the children will learn the language of where they were born at school or when playing with their friends. Cases in point for example are the Chinese and Asian parents who are from the same country and place. They speak to their children in their languages from the moment their children are born. This is what Nigerian parents should do. The worst is in Nigeria where both parents are from the same ethnicity and their children born in Nigeria don't speak in any Nigerian language but in English. Now you can learn any language on line.
Igob Amaka hundred percent I'm extremely fucking proud. All hail OYEDNDU and truthful ude igob and Biafras issse issse issse Biafra please come. I'm tired of liegeria and the jajawie. ude, oshi . Imo state has man no matter how you want it.
The culture of a child is that in which it grows up. It boils down to what is relevant in their day to day life. So it's a matter of location and how in tune you are with where you call home. Home is not where your parents were born or even where you were born for that matter. Home is where you find acceptance and peace. If the boys choose to relocate back to Nigeria then they have to learn the Nigerian/Ibo culture. Right now it's just an academic exercise with no relevance to their daily lives.
There's a need reminding you, nothings lost inside an entirely Igbo cultural/traditional discussion as an Abdul, yes.😮 You may do that and be right in your culture, Igbos are East,West, Home's the best. No alien guidance is needed. The Great Igbos are wholesomely capable of handling their issues. Thank you.
Apama ntoor gi….. Hapu umu aka biko. Zimchi that you gave birth to in Imo state can't even speak Igbo and you are here acting Onye Igbo. Welcome to my world
I have a nephew in the uk 🇬🇧 with a British dad, he speaks Esan more than his cousins in Nigeria 🇳🇬. I have another set of nephews and nieces in the UK 🇬🇧 with a Latvian 🇱🇻 mother, they speak Latvian like indigenes, meanwhile they are born and brought up in the uk 🇬🇧 . So it’s the parents who are responsible, for abandoning their language.
Apama, the father should be blame here,i have my town man that married a Germany woman he thought all his children Igbo village, them speak very well with out mistake
His father is laughing, thinking that is funny, u make money in abroad, buying property in Nigeria, if they found u tomorrow they didn't see, what do u think about those properties u buy, sorry for some of our people who raised there kids in abroad thinking that is the best way, I my self I based in Thailand, and my wife is in Nigeria with my kids every year am always go back to stay with them, before returning back to my base , I from imo state, in isu LGA in Ekwe
At least the boys are not shy. They are confident and that is a place to start.
Awesome kids. Love them much.

The culture of a child is that in which it grows up. It boils down to what is relevant in their day to day life. So it's a matter of location and how in tune you are with where you call home. Home is not where your parents were born or even where you were born for that matter. Home is where you find acceptance and peace. If the boys choose to relocate back to Nigeria then they have to learn the Nigerian/Ibo culture. Right now it's just an academic exercise with no relevance to their daily lives.
There's a need reminding you, nothings lost inside an entirely Igbo cultural/traditional discussion as an Abdul, yes.😮
You may do that and be right in your culture, Igbos are East,West, Home's the best. No alien guidance is needed. The Great Igbos are wholesomely capable of handling their issues.
Thank you.
@@kentiffy My comment wasn't restricted to any ethnicity. I don't quite understand the message of your response though.

Apama ntoor gi….. Hapu umu aka biko. Zimchi that you gave birth to in Imo state can't even speak Igbo and you are here acting Onye Igbo. Welcome to my world
Igbo language is very hard to learn, you have to speak it fully before it can be understand😂😅
No language is hard. It all depends on who is learning and why?

The parents, their father, he careless about his route, he doesn't want his kids to have anything do with his tribes, very shameful.
The father especially
I have a nephew in the uk 🇬🇧 with a British dad, he speaks Esan more than his cousins in Nigeria 🇳🇬. I have another set of nephews and nieces in the UK 🇬🇧 with a Latvian 🇱🇻 mother, they speak Latvian like indigenes, meanwhile they are born and brought up in the uk 🇬🇧 . So it’s the parents who are responsible, for abandoning their language.
Who Igbo help.. abeg let those children be
The fault is from the man . Look at his hairstyle, slay papa
PARENTS. That man was even making show and jokes with it. Very shameful
Apama, the father should be blame here,i have my town man that married a Germany woman he thought all his children Igbo village, them speak very well with out mistake
