The moviestar added that he knows what he is talking about because he grew up among intelligent dialect-speaking people in Ondo town.
Her words, “Ask those with fine spoken English anything about Physics, Chemistry, or Mathematics, their network would fail immediately.
Those who do not speak fine English dey Sabi book die.
I grew up among those dialect-speaking people in Ondo town and they are quite brilliant.”
