Indigo-healer kelvinSolomon My brother that's why we are backward as a country and continent. We only value what is not necessary over the necessity. He can never be more english than the British because he's not communicating rather speaking to himself. English grammar or speaking does not develop a country or continent so his grammar is quite irrelevant.

Did anyone say he's making up the words? I bet you're not update with English words.

But I give it to him, if he does this and he's become this popular go find your own source of popularity and leave the guy alone!

[@shesanmichaeliwaloye5249]

Victor Kreitton the grammer might be right, but he's absolutely not communicating, what about the uneducated rural dwellers? Made no mistakes he's a Senator, and a representative of a constituency, how will he communicate with uneducated rural dwellers? it will be better to speak in Edo language than this redundant grammar.we don't need this, we needs a clear Leader that we will understand their words, in a country Like nigeria wherby 65% were illiterate, and 35% were priviledge to be educated,we need and must carried along the 65% with.because during the election, the rural dwellers were confuse beyond reasonable doubt in other language they understand, which their Native language, why big grammer now? blowing or speaking a Foreign language never makes you to be educated but your way of communicating and Character.foreign language is killing African, any country that ever study and learn with Foreign language always Lack behind, and that's the Major African problems... Like fela anikulapo kuti Baba 70 (Rip) use to say,,,, them go big, big,, English for News paper dabaru we Africans... next election will he speak this grammar to the old women that vote him in? of course in Edo language. he's educated and good orator , but simple and correct English, if at all native language because we are not British.speak the language we can understand.

[@kenigtv6691]

Victor Kreitton almost all the vocabularies he used in this interview are correct because I have come across many Of The words, I didnt know why people always utter nasty about this Man grandiloquent speeches, if you do not know the meaning. ask or consult dictionary instead Of been a critic .
