This is a counter to the thread above

Now before i say anything else, let me say this, only someone that is happy with the current state of ethnic disunity is this country would be advocating for parents to keep enforcing our local languages on future generations. Basically What you are saying is that we should keep transfering hate and division to our children. If we truely want this country to succeed, our local languages should be scrapped

Now, the only thing our local languages are good at is breeding ethnic disunity. I know i might get under alot of fire for this but this is the truth.

I saw alot of very ignorant people in that thread who claim to be educated, saying that countries like china, Russia, Japan, e.t.c, all speak their native languages, and are doing well.. Now listen, have you ever heard of the word "homogeneous" before? if you haven't, go and search for the meaning. Those countries are homogeneous countries, and they speak ONE language. They don't have or practice 371 different languages in a single country. Most of these countries are equally as ethically divers as Nigeria, but they don't practice their different ethnic languages, what they have is ONE language for the sake of unity. So stop comparing these countries to Nigeria and using as a basis for arguing why we should teach our children our local languages.

Peace Out

EmperorCaesar:
And according to u, the "One Language" should be English?

Surface2AirToto:

Should it be Yoruba? Or should it be Igbo? Abi na Hausa? Deep down if you're not lying to yourself, you know the real answer to that question

A better idea would be to bring an end to this joke called Nigeria
