Nigerians travel abroad a lot and they tend to pick up the country’s accent in no time. Sometimes they come out well, but most times they sound funny.
“All that is for forming,its not a requirement,”
BattaBox presenter in Canada, Precious, asks Nigerians living in Canada – How long for a Nigerian to get a Canadian accent?
“Maybe 6 months to a year,” replies one guy
Although there are many people who live abroad for many years but still cannot get the accent.
“If you roll with Nigerians all the time, you can never get the accent,” replies one guy
Do you think its important for Nigerians to pick up foreign accents? Gist us.

BattaBox is Nigeria Like You’ve Never Seen Before!
SHARE this video with friends and family.

lmaoooo Windsor of all places come Toronto i will be the presenter ppl go
enjoy am trust me lol windsor is too dry for this
half of my childhood was in the UK, and i’ve been here for 14 years now, so
it’s understandable that i’ve developed an actual accent, but funny thing
is i have to fake a nigerian-british accent when i’m talking to my parents
or other elders… because if i try the british thing, all i hear my
parent’s saying is “what? ehn? ehn? what did you say?, mi o gbọ?” five
million times.
I would love to work for Battabox, I wonder how one could apply.
Is there something wrong with the sound? I couldn’t hear anything…
Ok now it is working…Thanks for responding so promptly…
My sista you are gorgeous. Keep your Nigerian accent. It is lovely ;)
background music is too loud.
