Moniya4Real:
It is finished. They can’t speak English in the first place and now adopting Hausa as an official language It will preserve their language quite alright but how are they going to be integrated into other region of the country?

you are the uneducated one, you don't have knowledge of your country's constitution, besides English Nigeria has 3 major languages spoken which Seen as a second to official language.
what if they adopted Hausa as the second language to communicate in their house?
English is merely a communication language, the essence of communication is to understand.
what's the problem mumu?

Retrogression, Education disadvantage State!

Skyfornia:
Totally in support of this..it should even be made the first official language in the state. Other tribes and states should emulate it so that those prodigal sons and daughters who don't speak indigenous language won't have any business in government.

Foolish dullard

NaijaNaWaa:
Unsurprisingly so because you certainly can’t find 5 among them that can speak passable English.

Hi Briton

Why are the people from this dot states bothered about bauchi

Penguin2:
Lol!

Instead Aboki will be making progress, Aboki is regressing.

I’m sure they must have a lot of illiterates in their midst which is why they deemed it necessary to lower the standards to accommodate them.

They might as well incorporate their different dialects as well.

Ndi ala😏

We don't want progress to selling babies, international drugs peddling etc

Whatever makes life easier for them is fine....because most of them have difficulty speaking fluent English as they're barely educated.

*illiterates*

So is speaking English increasing the standard ? Is English spoken in the Chinese or Italian parliament? What is wrong with yall

FalseProphet1:
They did it because a lot of them entered with primary school certificate and can't speak English, that's why they adopted hausas so that they can cover their goof.

This I have seen.

as foolish as you sound, I believe you don't know that this thing started with Lagos.

Which language were they speaking before? English?😂😂😂

They only legalized what they have been doing illegally all this while. How many of them can speak English to save their lives?

Pele o ,Mr Educated one that can’t make a point like others without resorting to abuse. So, with the current state of our public schools, especially in the North where SSCE holders can’t speak basic English and they have been passing WAEC-Now, here is the thing. If a local dialect is being spoken in a particular community, it’s better you speak English to your child/ward at home and vice versa. We can’t shut ourselves from the outside world as well.

Not new! Lagos started it; way to go.

The step taking by the Bauchi state house of assembly is commendable.

It is part of restructuring.

Hausa language is one of the major languages spoken in the northern states.

They should go ahead so long as they use it to bring development to the states.

States in southern part of Nigeria should develop the pidgin english language, yoruba, Igbo language as the case maybe and use it to develop their respective states.

Rostikol:


You are shocked that Africans in Africa are speaking their own language rather than speaking European languages?

What the hell is wrong with some of you?

English is the official language. I guess when they start speaking Hausa in NASS , no problem ba

Web2020:
A subtle message to the Fulani people. Fufudi the official language of the Fulani must be wiped out. Nnamdi Kanu opens their eyes.

You're correct! Hausa population is the highest in Nigeria but they're being treated like
a minority ethnic group in Nigeria.

Corruption crimality and looting understands every language don't be decived

Whatever moves the state forward. sick of people using English cliché when they mean something else.

I think we are ripe to share this country into 5 countries.

Osilama1:
are u from bauchi... The majority in house agree and u are weeping here.. hausa is popular there so no issue... If u disagree find ur way to the house and challenging them

Typical Nigerian, yeah I am not suprised. Trample on people rights and as far as you are in the majority, it’s coool.

Ofodirinwa:


English is your official language, their own is Hausa. They are Hausa people and you are a slave, so there's a difference. You're not expected to understand.

apt

bukatyne:


Who do not understand Hausa despite staying in Bauchi?

Then they should learn or get an official interpreter.

You are forcing people to learn another language that is not the official language in a country. Good point 👍 We are really going backward in this country

hope law made will be written in hausa

oluseyiforjesus:
When most of dem are not educated,
It's a good idea but as long as English is our official language den use English sir

‘Our official language’

Such a slavery-like statement.
When is your Brian going to start working properly so you can be saved from yourself?

Our official language…..
Chai!!!!

No wonder the white looks down on you because you’ve surrendered yourself as a willing slave to them

NaijaNaWaa:

English is just a language like hausa mumu.
Who is going to save Africans from mental slavery oh lord

vibbb:
It's only a matter of little time all Schools in Bauchi State would adopt Hausa as official teaching language.

And that’s totally fine.
Why does that disturb you oyinbo slave?

SugarGirl44:

Not disputing that. Just stating the obvious that western education/culture in whatever form isn't quite the forte of Northern Nigeria #FACT!!

See as hate and bitterness dey finish you and yet people like you will come and say one Nigeria

Masterito:
At state level it is okay but at national level, that will promote more division. English is a language of unity for Nigeria.

U re right

Lagos state house of assembly did same 5 years ago. The true way to go. It will encourage and promote indigenous languages in each state if they can all adopt that

English is not our mother language and we should not be forced to speak it. Simple
