Hi @duolingo
How about adding the Isoko language to Duolingo? 🤔
Isoko is an spoken by over 2,700,000 people primarily in Delta State & Bayelsa, Nigeria, as well as by a vibrant paying global diaspora.

I don't even know what his intentions were, he visited the Osikwenike community of Okugbe-Isoko kingdom in Bayelsa State and started fishing for an Igbo connection. He left with his tail between his legs when he couldn't understand the Isoko they spoke there.
The disrespect.
Every year they do this, one of them went to Osikwenike Okugbe Isoko some time back and was beaten.
MOST pidgin is in the Delta/Edo/Rivers language belt. Yoruba in Pidgin is easy to understand, there's Lagos pop culture influence.
Kalabari? but at least it's Ijaw.
But that Efik you added? That's sentiment. You must be from there.
Replying to @AfroVII
Most pidgin is either Yoruba, Efik or Kalabari. That's where english and local languages mixed up. This one sounds Efik.
Isoko, let's be honest.
Election is coming. 5 positions, 5 votes.
President
Governor
Senate
Reps
Assembly
Are we voting 5/5 for party or are we voting for the person who will actually deliver for Isoko?
What do you think is the way forward?

What needs to happen now:
- @DSGovernment declare emergency in Uzere
- Force the operators - Heritage Energy and NEPL - to take responsibility. Right now both are reluctant because they claim no functional facility within 300m.

Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, through the member representing Isoko North and South Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Hon. Jonathan Ukodhiko, inspected the gas-emitting sites in Uzere, Isoko South Local Government Area, on October 27, following reports of dangerous gas emissions in residential areas and farmlands.
During the on-the-spot assessment, Hon. Ukodhiko expressed concern over the potential environmental and public health consequences of the incident and disclosed that he had discussed the situation with Governor Oborevwori. Residents living close to the affected areas have been relocated to safer locations as a precautionary measure, while the cause of the emissions remains to be established.
The lawmaker pledged to work with relevant authorities, the Federal Government and the National Assembly to secure urgent intervention, contain the emissions and address the environmental impact. He also assured residents that remedial work would be pursued as conditions permit, while calling for urgent action to safeguard lives and livelihoods in the affected community.
Don't know your culture, but in Isoko tradition and most parts of Southern Nigeria, a wife has little say in how her husband is buried.
The family decides 99% of the time, they may only let you contribute out of respect for your grief.

An uncontrolled gas release from Heritage Energy’s Well-14 has continued leaving residents of Uzere in Isoko South Delta State concerned about the impact on their lives. @RtHonSheriff

Each resident gets ₦266k.
Rather build 4 mini industrial hubs with the same ₦4bn, cassava in Emede, palm oil in Sapele, fish cold-chain in Burutu, rice mill in Ndokwa you create 1,200 direct jobs and 4,000 suppliers.
Let's stop sharing poverty and start building production.
Four states are in darkness? It is not like @beninelectric give the Isoko Nation light anyways.

The constituency scorecard of Rep. (Pst.) Jonathan Ajirioghene Ukodhiko, covering June 2023 to 2025, highlights interventions in education, healthcare, infrastructure, economic empowerment and legislative advocacy across Isoko North and South. These initiatives reflect development priorities that align with Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s MORE Agenda, connecting opportunities, essential services and community needs with the broader vision for Delta State’s development.
His Excellency, Dr. Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan, former Governor of Delta State (2007-2015).
His administration will be remembered for the free healthcare for pregnant women and children under five, massive investments in transportation.
May his soul rest in perfect peace.
"The Niger Delta is a coastal, swampy terrain and road construction is impossible".
This is the same unserious govt excuse that have stalled the Uzere-Isoko-Patani road linking East- West since 2005. They are repeating it with the coastal road.
