The Federal government has declared French language as compulsory in every school in the country, from nursery to university.

This is aimed at an effort to make French the second official language in Nigeria.


Minister state for Education, Prof. Anthony Anwukah made this known yesterday while receiving French Ambassador to Nigeria, Denys Gaver, who paid him a courtesy call.

French language is a matter of necessity. We have to because we have Cameroon, Niger, Chad, Benin Republic, Togo Guinea, and Ivory Coast surrounding us and so there is need for us to get more Nigerians to become proficient in French language.

“This is good for the continent; it is good for us as a nation. It is good for our brothers at the borders because it will enable us to communicate with them effectively.

Nice one there.

I don't know the reason, but my intuition tells me that this is a good development

Every language was a hit back to back.... From English to pidgin.... Yet e never do us..... francais take ti over..... Leave French to France

So because he had a visitor from France, he made the law?

We should have a visitor from Iran too.

A widely spoken indigenous language would have been more appropriate. Now you have two colonial languages.
