First Ever Physics Textbook Written In Igbo Language By An Ebonyi Man Is Finally Out (Photos)

The First ever Physics textbook written by an Ebonyi man, Maazi Ogbonnaya Okoro in Nigerian Language (Igbo) is finally out.


Maazi Ogbonnaya made this known on Wednesday via his Facebook page.

According to him, "Over the years, I have read so many threats facing the Igbo and how it will go extinct. This motivated me to embark on this project that seemed unattainable, for science subjects to be taught in Igbo. I started from Physics. I said I would do it, and I DID IT."

"This book is designed in a way that one without formal education can understand Physics. It's needed in all libraries, schools, homes and for individual use."

A copy of the book goes for ₦9,500.

Great stuff!

This needs to be encouraged.

Indians are doing great in STEM because they learn the basics in their local language.

Just see how Igbophobic rabid animals would wail like a frustrated banshee,as if the commendable deed is the cause of their domestic and public woes,as if it's the cause of Ebin Pa wa Syndrome currently ongoing in the land.
Lol!
Anyways the guy did a marvelous job in production of a textbook in Igbo language.More should be made in Igbo language.
Likewise in Hausa and Yoruba languages.These three languages are official languages alongside English.
India produces her textbooks in Hindustani and English.
Indonesia has hers in Indonesian Malay,her official language.
China has hers in Chinese characters,used in writing the language.
Germany has hers in German.
And so on.
Kudos to the guy.

education is not about writing exams and getting fake certificates but getting knowledge and refining of behaviour.

An Igbo physics textbook will make that easier.

Re: First Ever Physics Textbook Written In Igbo By An Ebonyi Man Is Finally Out by blowjohn(m): 6:24pm On Mar 13
Hmm..

Am trying to wrap my head around how I wud understand simple laws of motion if someone were to explain it in my dialect.

It just seems weird in a way.... Like it cud even be more difficult.

I say this cos aside the normal English vocabulary in physics, words such as velocity, mass, momentum etc cud make things complex.

And how many people can read their language on paper properly?



But kudos to him. Wish him all the best.

Mazi Okoro is a notable Igbo Author. I am glad he has finally accomplished this task.

Dear Op, what do you mean when you say '...Ebonyi man'?

Is an Ebonyi man not an Igbo person?

WTF!

Very very Good!

But I have a question.

How exactly were you able to translate strong words like Thermodynamics, Flux, Momemtum, Volt meter, Potentiometer, Cathode Ray Oscilloscope and so on?

Does our languages(Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba) have them?

Also, CAN SOMEONE TELL THE FG TO CHANGE OUR OFFICIAL LANGUAGE FROM "ENGLISH" TO "NATIVE LANGUAGE"?

Let every region have their language that they'll communicate in that language.

And then English will be our second language.

Except Abuja tho

That's the reason you need the book. Most of us did Physics 20years ago but we're interested in just a copy

Would have loved to but the thing is I don't speak Igbo.
I would have to learn the language first.
