According to Temitope Omotayo who shared the photo, the men and women pictured here are students of Yoruba language at University of Wisconsin, Madison, U.S.
"So if you are still ashamed of your culture and you feel reluctant to speak your language with your children then na you know o. If we don't teach our children our language. I am sure these new set of people who are passionate about learning the language will teach them. I am referring to Hausa, Yoruba Igbo, Swahili & other African languages" he said

Madam. We study English because they colonised us. We still study it because it was imposed in our educational curriculum. We have to speak and write it because they've made it a global means of communication. They learn ours out of interest and most importantly to maintain the status quo

Congratulations on learning french and Spanish. Truth be told. There's an economic advantage attached to learning these languages and I bet that's part of your motive. Else, you would have boasted of being able to communicate in more than one local language and even learning more.

Ahhh! I communicate well with my Yoruba oo. Kosorogun mehn. Like I said, i'm learning out of curiosity. Trust me, they are studying it too for economic reasons. UN and other international Charity bodies will find them useful. Even their museum et al. They can't be studying Yoruba if it has no prospect whatsoever.

This argument is based mainly on speculation. while you believe they are learning Yoruba out of curiosity, I believe they have ulterior motives. The true reason, only time will tell

Oga leave that babe. I always try to let people know we have lost the war along time ago, all those screaming culture extinction are just waisting their time. We can only manage the damage done and apply control to the stage we are now.

Madam those languages are not included in our curriculum which I believe you know, learning any of the above mentioned or other foreign languages except English is sheer individual interest and not compelling or influence by any national or educational policy....

English on the other hand is compulsory within the Nigeria entry, we are forced to use it. Not interest. Arabic is as a result of the islamic religion and we are not compel to interact in it. Not even muslims.
