  The study which relied on Labov’s theory of variation observed that educated Igbo speakers of English manifested variation in their production of weak forms when compared with RP. Bearing in mind that speakers who are not familiar with the use of weak forms are likely to have difficulty understanding speakers who do use the weak forms, as well as the need to avoid sounding unnatural before the competent users of weak forms, this study sets out to investigate and characterize the phonological use of weak forms by educated Igbo speakers of English with focus on pronouns across social variables of age and gender.

  Worst still, if a woman gives birth only to female children, she is being cajoled, abused and oppressed using different languages.

The realization that the dream of the good life is largely unrealizable usually breaks the spirit of many African immigrants in the West as they face the stark reality of being an outsider in a foreign land.

  Furthermore, since visual signs have become an important part of political expression, constructing either positive or negative images of politicians, political parties and addressing other issues and events of concern in the society, etc., a study of political cartoons which generally rely on a multiplicity of visual resources is not only desirable but also expedient in the light of the emerging linguistic and socio-political practices. Hence, through pictorial representations, political cartoons challenge the traditional ways of literacy, thereby affording readers new ways of interpreting meaning and reality.
