I know this may be hard for many of us to take,but our indigenous languages will gradually die off. They just are not suitably adaptable for today's and of course tomorrow's technological and business demands. Right now,the written aspects are dying.As time goes on the spoken aspect will die too.

i speak raw owerri lang like mad, people ask if i was born in the village

At Princek12,

Am not a bulldog to attack!

For sure we have many dialects  but many dielects are related. e.g. Ibo dialects: Ikwerre, Anioma and Eastern Ibo are Igboid people, Edos, Isoko, urhobo and some others are Edoid, and the Yorubas and Hausas/fulani are largely homogeneous. Idoma, Tiv and others still have a commonality.

We have only been so fragmented because we don't know otherwise.  What I mean is that Ghana also has tens of dialects but almost everyone  understands Twi. US was made of different Europeans speaking different languages: English, German, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, and some Irish-speaking and other minorities. English was only narrowly adopted over German as US national language.

If we had more unity, a language (indegeneous) could have been adopted post independence to be taught alongside English as official language with the agreement that teaching of other regional native tongues will be equally funded. Hausa (am not from the North) would have been  ideal beause of widespread use in West Africa. But the Igbos, Yorubas, Etsako, Nupe,  just name it,  will say why not their own language. English as we know it did not become intelligible to all Englishmen until Shakespeare's English became standard English. Before that a Yorkshire man could not understand the rambling of a Londoner! German and French people also previously had diffrent dialects. Danish & Norwegian were basically one language 150 years ago.

I can speak Yoruba Fluently and i can also speak my Ijebu Dialect fluently, is that good enough for ya Guv'nor

oh i speak a bit of cockney as well

My first language was Remo, then Yoruba and lastly the white man language, and i can speak the three fluently.

I regret that i can only speak basic yoruba, i wish i could speak ekiti . FOR ALL THOSE NAIJA PEOPLE WEY SABI SPEAK UNA DIALECT I ADMIRE UNA O.

Am a Nigerian born, Lagos based, and Ijesha native,
Mo le fi ijesha ko rap.
I can write, read, mime, sing, and walk the Ijesha way, With people like me Ijesha will survive the next millenium, Wherever I go and see someone that understands Ijesha I speak it without apology to anyone,
Yesi han bo de?
Ara rian ni an bode,

I always envy my mum whenever she speaks yoruba in Ekiti dialect. She will be like 'Yeye re siko'? and the reply will be 'O wa lule'.  I can speak lagos yoruba wellaly but other ones men 'I dey struggle ni'.

Thank God I had a good Yoruba teacher back in secondary school. I can speak, read and write in Yoruba. I wish I could have learned additional local language though.

I speak and write Ibibio and Efik fluently. I interpret message in church if there are visitors, and i studied English in school. So my kids will speak my language bc i just love it. AKWA IBOM ADO OK!

It's an abomination for 'Nwa Igwe' to not be able to speak the dialect fluently!

Go figure, guys.

Absolutely i agree with the guy that hinted that no nation can be technologically strong with out kids being taught basic sciences; Integrated science (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) in the native language.

It just cannot work. A friend went to South Korea and could not find Windows XP English version anywhere in the shops to install. That is the way to go.

But who do you blame here, when all your job applications/interviews are conducted in English?
