Yippee! We won, we won America.
For those of us not in the know, Nigeria’s highly flavoured English accent that blends our “igbati igbati, wetem ego & Nagode”  and the Oyibo’s Hello Mate has been voted the 10th sexiest accent in the world beating the almighty American “YO Dude!” accent.
The Nigerian accent came behind the Spanish, British, French (before nko), British Oxford and some others.

In a poll conducted by popular cable News CNN that pulled over 7,000 languages spoken the world over (including the ones spoken by fishes and land animals), the Nigerian accent (our locally produced English) was adjudged as one of the best. CNN shared this news on their Facebook describing the Nigerian Language as “Dignified, with just a hint of willful naivete, the deep, rich “oh’s” and “eh’s” of Naija bend the English language without breaking it, arousing tremors in places other languages can’t reach”
Abeg, Nigeria no dey always carry last at least dem go get draw!
