North as usual, no levels

See how you reason like a colonised mumu.

Speaking your own African language means ''no levels''.

Tell me something. Does China speak English or any European language? NO.

Does Japan speak English or any European language? NO.

Does South Korea speak English or any European language? NO.

Does UAE with Dubai speak English or any European language? NO.

Singapore's lingua franca is Malay.

Malaysia's lingua franca is Malay.

India's lingua franca is Hindustani.

HAS SPEAKING THEIR TRADITIONAL LANGUAGES STOPPED ANY OF THOSE COUNTRIES FROM DEVELOPING?

HELL NO.

QUITE THE OPPOSITE.

It has made the journey to development SMOOTHER for them.

UNTIL YOU NIGERIANS RID YOURSELVES OF INFERIORITY COMPLEX AND COLONIAL MENTALITY, YOU WILL NEVER GET ANYWHERE AS A PEOPLE.

THE BRITISH WHO BRAINWASHED YOU TO DESPISE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOURSELVES, FROM YOUR TRADITIONAL RELIGION TO YOUR TRADITIONAL LANGUAGES....THEY HAVE GONE......60 YEARS AGO.

WHEN WILL YOU RECOVER FROM THE SPELL THEY CAST ON YOU?

TUFIAAAA!!!

I concur with hom but only if other ethnic groups in the North accepts. I will also recommend each ethnic groups in the South should teach in their own mother language.

We can simply have 5 official national languages. Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba, Edo, and English.

There is no reason to limit ourselves to just the English language.

In Ghana, in addition to English, there are other languages that have official status in specific regions of the country, such as the Asante Twi and Akuapem Twi languages in the Ashanti region.

So why must only English be the official language in Nigeria?

No sensible country relegates their own languages to be speaking European nonsense alone.

NORTHERN GOVERNORS DEMAND CHANGE, WANT ENGLISH LANGUAGE REPLACED WITH HAUSA IN SCHOOLS

Niger State Governor Mohammed Umaru Bago has urged northern governors to reconsider the region’s education system by adopting Hausa as the primary language of instruction in schools.

According to the governor, English should be taught only as a subject rather than being the medium of instruction in primary and secondary education across the North.

He stated: “Adopting Hausa as the language of instruction in northern schools could significantly enhance the learning experience, promote enrolment, and foster a deeper understanding of subjects among pupils and students.”

However, this proposal has sparked widespread concern among Nigerians from other regions. Many worry that such a move could negatively affect youth corps members who are posted to northern states for their mandatory one-year service under the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).

Moreover, there has been a flurry of reactions across social media platforms. One Facebook comment by "Andrew Beza" particularly stood out, and I quote:

“And to One Nigeria, does this make sense? Abi, na another way of superimposing Hausa language on One Nigeria or making it a compulsory language for everyone? Think well, because you can’t come to southern Nigeria to speak Hausa to our children. Take note of that. Your NYSC graduates can only serve in northern Nigeria. Kpomqwem.”

Guys, I’ll let you watch this video for yourself so you can see exactly what I’m talking about. Also don't forget to like, share and subscribe to this channel if you haven't already done so.

Take a look guys, and remember to share your thoughts after watching.

Only GOD Almighty knows what latitude and longitude will be called in Hausa. I never talk of Matrice oooo

Can someone tell me what neutralisation reaction will be called in Hausa?

So with this the official language in the North will no longer be English can you imagine what will be, even when English is compulsory they struggle to speak now that it's just a subject so U think they will even attend d class? So how will they relate to other regions, other state in Nigeria. I think it's a way starting or forming their own country like China and Russia where all citizens speak their native language.[color=#000099][/color]

The people of the ipobpigians region will not put in their request for their unpalatable-to-listen-to language to be adopted in that their unproductive erosion-ravaged enclave, they would instead start insulting northerners for this legitimate and noble demand.

As if everyone in the north is Hausa?

Poverty is indeed a disease. The Northern elite don't want the less privilege to know what is going on in this technological era.

How can they speak English or communicate in English if the need arise? But Una children all schooled abroad and reside abroad.

I blame their youth.

Chinese don't study in English nut when it comes to technology they are far more developed than ur English speaking population so what is the point?
Re: Northern Governors Demand Change, Want English Language Replaced With Hausa In S by ObiaboAdoka(m): 9:02am On Jan 21
I use to respect the Governor on his developmental project but this hail No. Y should they use Hausa as instructional language in school.

It seems this Makinde hates anything Yoruba! He hates Yoruba women as his wife is not Yoruba; he even hates his language as he can't speak it fluently.

How did this hater of Yoruba become governor of Oyo state?

Not everyone in the north speak Hausa, they might speak Hausa in the towns but when you go deep into the villages of these minority groups in the north they speak their native languages

I must admit he is better than when he first campaigned and lost. I followed him and Aketi back then. It is surprising that our elites don't consider learning our language as part of elitism. Other elites will sell you off by code switching, ours will still go to the white man's land to have meetings and speak English. grin

oga carry your mat and kettle away from here......bloody boko haramite! The same igbos you fought to keep in Nigeria.....sharap dia bush man!





I made that observation with all good heart so that ipobpigians would not wake up one day claiming being marginalized after seeing the Hausa northerner's language becoming dominant language in the country.
But if it pained you, I advised that you go about your normal business on Mondays as a way of protesting against the suggestion

DMerciful:
Why not divide the country?
That the Hausa are planning to adopt the Hausa language as the language of learning in their own enclave?
The country will never divide, not at any future time even. So many had wished before the independence that the country never existed, yet it does. With the successful adoption of Hausa as the language of learning, the northerners would have positioned themselves to take more grips of the country while it would be too late for the reactionaries like the ipobpigians. That is where my suggestion is pointed to.
Re: Northern Governors Demand Change, Want English Language Replaced With Hausa In S by DMerciful(m): 4:02pm On Jan 21
Everybody wants to do their own thing. Its best to do it in your own country.

Why do you wanna eat your cake and keep it?

This only works if the kids will also be taking their JAMB and WAEC in Hausa, else they'll be at a distinct disadvantage

the northerners said something this coward brought in igbo what mislabeled people call yeruba.
I can be called a coward but not by ipobpigians race, the race which my parents successfully fought and made subservient for years with no end at sight.
I brought in the Igbo to foreclose the "victim mentality problem" in the future and to help their wishful thoughts of future freedom.
