I say this because,sadly in many African countries, there is too much emphasis put on the study of former colonial languages such as English, French, and Portuguese. I'm not Nigerian but I love the great languages of Nigeria such as Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Fulani, Tiv, Efik, and Kanuri. It would be nice if all these languages could be made official. I find it so sad that many people speak Pidgin English instead of these real African languages. |

Basically what I'm saying is that people should speak these real languages, and not that disgusting Pidgin English which is nothing but baby-talk. |

"Queens English" has no place in Nigeria. |

ezeagu: if it has no place,why do you speak it and write with it?  |

Goldieluks: I do not write "Queens English". |

To be honest, any English should have no place in Nigeria. |

It is so ironic that the President cannot speak is own language (Ijaw) in the House of Assembly |

Ideally all indigenous languages of Nigeria should be made official. |
