Patrick Obahiagbon in an interview with Punch has said he would
love his children to speak like him, especially his youngest daughter.
Patrick disclosed this to Punch, he said;“I have said it for the umpteenth time that I have never advertently set
out to mystify my audience with what you have referred to as esoteric
words and I neither studied Latin.
“The truth is that extensive reading is my hobbyhorse and these words
and phrases become part of my vocabulary repertoire to use your words.
Of course, I have equally posited elsewhere that the dictionary for me
is a vade mecum.
“It bears reiteration that my family is already used to my idiolect and I
am encouraging my kids along that path but of course you know these
things cannot be decreed.I have endeavoured to encourage my children to
try and cultivate the gift of the gab especially my young daughter who
is exuding all the qualities of a scholar in her formative years and my
pleasure will be boundless if one of them can be so motivated.”
