[p]Destiny Etiko cited similar challenges when observing comments and threads where Yoruba speakers prefer to communicate solely in their dialect, excluding non-Yoruba speakers from the conversation.

[p]She appealed to them to learn how to effectively communicate in English or utilize pidgin English so that everyone can understand.

[p]"I just don't understand why whenever you are speaking to Yoruba people, they always want to speak Yoruba. Ehhhhh, I don't get it, even on blogs. You all will be speaking Yoruba as if everyone is Yoruba. You guys should try to speak English or broken English," she emphasized.
