I chose Igbo and Nigerian Pidgin English because they are my mother tongue and secondly it was gradually going into extinction and losing its relevance in the global market. When I graduated I decided to venture into language as a full-time profession in my native languages. I observed how happy the communities were when they realized I have put effort into learning their language, they were very happy to relate well with me and help me understand their language within a short period. This spurs my curiosity about language as I began to study the language in order to bridge the communication barrier. I have had my major share of language barriers during my university days, we were on internship training, and it happens that we were posted to remote areas where there are limited English speakers, it was a huge struggle communicating with the community. I graduated from the University of Ibadan, Nigeria, in 2009. My name is Blessing Uzuegbu, a Nigerian citizen, an Igbo, and Nigerian Pidgin English native speaker.
