. . . Especially black South Africa, Anglophone Cameroon, Uganda, and Nigeria:

I find it troubling that Africans who work hard to improve their English skills, particularly in vocabulary and Oxford Dictionary phonetics, are often ridiculed, bullied, and even denied job opportunities in some African countries. If there's such disdain for European influence, it raises the question: why speak English or wear Western suits at all? It's disheartening to see even the President of South Africa mocking these efforts, potentially hindering economic progress, despite English being the world's leading language for business and science. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UGeA8wl1x0&t=556s
