Renowned Nigerian singer Teniola Apata, widely known as Teni, has shared an interesting insight into how she mastered the Yoruba language. Despite being of Yoruba descent, Teni revealed that she learned to speak Yoruba not through her family, but by watching Yoruba movies on YouTube during her time in America. This revelation came during her appearance on a recent episode of the Zero Conditions podcast.

Teni’s approach to learning the language is a testament to the power of digital media and self-education. Her experience underscores how online platforms like YouTube can serve as effective tools for cultural and linguistic learning, especially for diaspora communities.informationguidenigeria

“If I did surgery my stomach will be flat. I wish but I was scared. Surgery is not easy. It’s life threatening. It’s not easy to go under the knife. I was on a strict diet. Ask my managers. No carbs. I was on a strict diet for two months.

“But it taught me discipline. The mind is also a muscle. The way you flex your arms, discipline helps you flex your mind. It was not easy. Do you know what it means for me to take people out on dinner and I can’t eat what they are eating?NYSC PORTAL

“I made the decision to lose weight after I had survived life-threatening COVID-19. I had COVID-19 twice; 2020 and 2021. So, in January 2022, after the COVID-19, I just said, ‘Omo, it’s time [to lose weight].”
