Interesting. I used to have an Isoko neighbour. If we can get a volunteer who is good at speaking Isoko, I could get my team to make videos of Isoko lessons in animated form and publish on YouTube for ease of access. Let's work towards it.

I have a team of illustrators and animators who can work on it. We need to get someone who's good at the Isoko language to voice each lesson. It's something we can do for the beautiful Isoko culture.
