Meanwhile, Yen.com.gh earlier reported that the same English teacher shared a short video of one of his students speaking brilliantly in a British accent in a class.
The young girl's video has gained popularity since she can speak English fluently and with tongue twisters.
She was seen reading from the board while standing up in the middle of the classroom in the @impeccableaccent video.
In other news, a young Nigerian lady, @doubledosestylishhome, shared a WhatsApp message she got from her boyfriend that ended their relationship.
