Grammar is a system of rules and principles for speaking and writing a language.
A lot of people are fond of showing proudness in speaking English grammar which does not really matters, if you ain't successful.
This truth was recently revealed on a Twitter post by Reno Omokri, a former special assistance to Goodluck Jonathan. He emphasised on the need to be successful rather than just speaking grammars.
He tweeted, " A man who speaks big grammar is not as influencial as a man who controls big money. Except your grammar translate to success, it's as useless as the "P" in psychology." He further stated, " Don't try to impress people with your grammar."
This got his followers talking with many supporting him and some countering him. Below are the screenshots of his tweet and the reactions that trails it;
So going through this, what do you think about his assertion? Do you think he is right?
