MRS. NWAIWU JULIANA Umuezu Egbeke Etche Rivers State. June 25, 2019 To whom it may concern: I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Fortune Nwaiwu.  Fortune worked with me at Government Secondary School Okehi for six years. He began here and continued to serve with increasing skill in that capacity . During Fortune's service with us I spent considerable time with him, and he was very goal oriented. Fortune was always punctual, and was dedicated to his work and the job at hand. Fortune demonstrated from early in his tenure that he understood what teaching is all about. He was well organized. He was quite aware of the bottom line, and had a knack for recognizing and eliminating waste. I suppose doing well in teaching is easy if you are, as he was, efficient by nature. I would like to be very clear about why Fortune wants to leave his present job.  Fortune is available for new challenges only because of his desire to learn and grow further. I would have loved to s...

A Critique of WAZOBIA, Guosa, Swahili and Naija options along with their merits and demerits, why did they fail and a way forward

  COURSE TITLE: LANGUAGE AND NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT Topic: Criticize WAZOBIA, Guosa, Swahili and Naija options along with their merits and demerits, why did they fail and a way forward   An Assignment  By NWAIWU FORTUNE Submitted to the postgraduate school, Department of English and Communication Arts Ignatius Ajuru University of Education, Remuolumeni PortHarcourt, Rivers State.  COURSE LECTURER: PROF. CHUKWUEGGU   1.0 INTRODUCTION Language is the most important element of culture. It gives people a sense of belonging, identity, and may be used as a potent instrument of integration. The number of indigenous languages spoken in Nigeria is noteworthy. These multiple languages spoken by different people from different geo-political zones in Nigeria have made Nigeria to be desperately searching for an indigenous lingua franca that can integrate the large ethnic groups in the country. But given the historical circumstances in which Nigeria is made with different ethnic gro...

Jesus IS KNOCKING

Jesus  is Knocking  A sermon preached by Fortune Nwaiwu on Sun. 9th June, 2019. Introduction : There are different varieties of doors. We have interior doors, exterior doors, glass doors, and wooden doors. But in all, the door that Jesus Christ is Knocking on is your very HEART. Heart is a domain of forces, supposedly a dwelling home of God. Jesus is eager and meek to come into your heart and dwell in there to feed you with good thoughts nourishing your soul to keep it secure from danger and sin, and to give it life in abundance but Satan is aggressively fighting to steal it. Jesus Christ says: ‘The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly', John 10:10 NHEB. There are people whose souls have been stolen by Satan with the wealth of this world, and they tend to believe that they have gotten all they want in life. Such people are not only unbelievers but also some church members. Their belief in self-satisfactions re...

Pidgins are Debased and Corrupted Variety of some Prestige Language

A Paper Presented by Fortune Nwaiwu in the Department of English and Communication Arts, Ignatius Ajuru University of Education, Rivers State of Nigeria. Abstracts Many scholars claim that pidgin is a language of its own with community of speakers who pass it on from one generation to another (Hudson 2001:p.62), but this paper examines pidgins from the historical perspectives and presents a stunning fact about the linguistic status of pidgins as corrupted variety of English. With the influx of words from their lexifier language into their substrate variety, pidgins are then seen as debased and corrupted variety of the prestige language. This claim is supported by Krapp (1924) and Kurath (1928) and is validated with the imperfect second language learning hypothesis which states  that pidgins are the result of failed attempts at learning the prestige language, (see Brown and Attardo 2009:p.126). This paper is very significant in the sense that it sheds more light in the understanding...
