Dr Joe Abah tweeted a piece of information stating that only 50% of primary 4 students in the North East can read single words of 3 or 4 letters. Someone replied saying it is not a surprise because they use Hausa to teach English language in the north. How true is this? https://www.pressnewsng.com.ng/2018/04/they-use-hausa-to-teach-english.html?m=0



It's either you are brain dead or you are ful of ignorance. Does speaking Arabic or Hausa stop pple from learning proper standard English? Do you know how much India and UAE spend on native English teachers every year to teach their children proper English? Are u more Islamic than them? Don't you know that inability to learn shows the state of the mind? You pple are jst deluded by religion and ignorance. I have finally resolved that there is no need for the entity called Nigeria to continue. So that those that want to remain in 7th century can happily enjoy their foolishness

Omo it's everywhere, Yoruba land, Igbo land, in the Niger Delta too, but evidently it's much worse in the North. Nobody is talking out of hatred, it's a clear issue that need to be addressed up north to ensure progress

angry Rubbish. Is English their language? How many British can speak Hausa language? Their religion encourages teachings in Arabic.This is why we condemn the removal of the Islamic inscriptions on the centenary notes. It's a symbol of Arabic pride and a motivation for northern Muslims who doesn't like to speak English
wait oo is ur brain always configured like dis? if so I am sorry cos the rehab center u need to be at we don't even have it here in Nigeria.

Just the way another region has convinced the whole world that Nigerians are bunch of drug peddlers, prostitutes and advanced fee fraudsters.
well, prostitution is legal in a considerable number of western countries. Drug is a global phenomenon and 65 of fraud happens in the US and UK.

So your emotional response is as baseless as the bleating of a yam-chewing goat.

But hey , the last time we checked, Nigeria still has polio, about the only country in the world to still have polio prevalence and it's thanks to one region.

Nigeria still remains the few countries to still fail to sign the child right bill since 2004 and only a paedophilic region has refused to accent when the rest of the world has.

The only region in Africa that has successfully exported terrorism abroad in sub-sahara Africa.

The only reason Nigeria with the likes of Soyinka, Achebe, Okpara, etc, still has a poor literacy level even at African standards embarassed

The only region responsible for Nigeria having the highest child mortality rate in Africa and one of the highest in the world.

Wetin we do to deserve this?

I served in South South Cross River to be precise. If i am to be honest in my judgement, this type of thing is highly prominent there. Infact their indigenous teachers are worst, as in they are too poor. So, these about painting the north in bad color is unwise of the op. You guys will just come and attack the north without checking your region 'pot calling kettle black'.
I didn't regret serving in the south south after all, it really opened my eye.

Conclusion, is not a bad thing to teach in our local language, infact it should be encouraged. It will really help us in our education system. Must weunderstand english language b4 we seek knowledge?

In the autonomous and highly industralized/wealthy region of Catalonia (capital-Barcelona), Catalan is the official language, in addition to Spanish. Catalan is a whole separate language, as in not a dialect of Spanish.

It was during Franco dictatorship (1939-1975) that the use of the Catalan language was banned. In recent times, there has been calls by Catalonians for independence from Spain.
Note that modern Spain did not exist as a country until 1469 (or 1492). Prior to the late 15th century, there were different kingdoms in Spain which were separate countries socially, politically, legally, and in currency and language

martineverest:
nice one.....but what will u say about Spain and Catalan.......Catalans aren't happy that Spanish govt are imposing Spanish on them instead of allowing them use their native catalan as their official language

how do they use english to teach yoruba in havard

how do indians use third language to teach english

how do chinese tech their children english

your contribution to the post is as a result of poor reasoning

You're a fvcktard!

When you learnt French in secondary school (assuming you did), what language was it taught? English or French? How can you learn a language by using another language? If it's mathematics or physics, it's possible and to an extent is right. But teaching English using Hausa?

You're a cretin!

So what if the teach in Hausa, Ibo or Conc Ibadan dialect?! That's even what we should be doing for God's sake!

The most advanced countries in the world uses their mother's tongue as the language of instruction. Germany and all the European countries, China, USA, UK, etc.

What's the OFFICIAL language of Nigeria? Is English the official language of China? Is Chinese the official language of the UK?

Teaching indigenous languages is different from teaching subjects using a language that's not the official language and worse of all teaching another language (which is official) using another (which is not official).

It's a pity you are generalizing the issue... Did you mean things done by our brothers down south are not alarming and glaring to the eyes
Just have a rethink, then you'll see that its never a good idea to generalize issues that way...

I don't generalise.

The topic is about what happened in the north.

2004 I was part of a UNICEF lecture group at Hotel Concorde and it was alarming that only northern states in Nigeria had refused to sign the child protection bill in Nigeria. It was a serious concern internationally.

Polio is only prevalent in northern Nigeria making only Nigeria and India to be the only polio prevalent countries in the world.

You call that generalisation?

I schooled in one of the unity schools up north as far back as 2007 and what they all said here are pure lies.
Most of our teachers at a point left to lecture in Federal universities and i can say majority are now professors.
Quit the lies, attack Buhari if you hate him but don't discredit what we had back in those days. sad

Guy they are not lying..
I did my youth service in bauchi state,i witness all this too but most of the schools that have this problem are in the rural areas.

What an immature statement. To you Hausa is the only language in Nigeria. We have about 520 languages spoken in Nigeria, according to official data.

English is a compromise, a universal language. Bible was translated to English for all to read, study and comprehend.

Read your post, "...symbol of Arabic pride and a motivation for Northern Muslims"

Arabic language is not our official language.

you are right. They sometimes use the mother tongue for clear explanation nd understanding in some subjects i think this is done in both Igbo nd Yoruba too, but i dont think that corper is sure of what he said. They cant teach English in Hausa language.
