Don't even venture into Nollywood, 'cus ndị Igbo have the best of both worlds when it comes to that. We control the English side of Nollywood, which by the way is spiced up with a heavy dose of Igbo, and we've recently resurrected our Igbo movies, and they are doing so well now.

IlekeHD: I'm okay with this sentiment, but there is nothing supporting indigenous languages currently that would warrant the removal of English right now. I mean, there are no indigenous language schools or universities. English is still the medium of education, and without you may be lost. 1 Like |
