stupidity:You chose the right username. |
scholti, some middle class Nigerians pay a lot of money sending their children to international French (instructed) schools, why not Igbo for cheaper? http://lyceefrancaislagos.ac-nantes.fr/ http://www.aefe.fr/reseau-scolaire-mondial/rechercher-un-etablissement/nigeria-abuja-ecole-francaise-marcel-pagnol The study shows that Igbo-speaking children actually do better with Igbo as instruction. The only challenges I see for an Igbo school is overcoming peoples conditioning of seeing their language as less than English in academia and backing the campaign up by adding better vocabulary to Igbo. |
Another mad white man most probably. |
Why should the Nigerian military use live rounds on peaceful protesters? Why is there clearly an imbalance in the way different protesters are killed. If anything this should show how much of a useless rubbish country Nigeria is. rhymaster:Where did you see the girl was killed by protesters? |
TheAdvocate:Is this a serious question? |
swezenberg:Seems like the jokes on you? What is east in your map? |
Thanks scholti. |
IQ/race is a rubbish excuse for indiscipline and the dependency on Europeans and how they ordered Africa. |
ChinenyeN:I meant that English would a compulsory foreign, or better yet, secondary language till SS3, not just in SS3. I think there's already French being taught in some secondary schools. There's just a few books and plays in Igbo which I think could help with Igbo literature, I think oral stories, fables and proverbs can be written down for study, maybe a better name like Igbo Literary and Oral studies. Igbo language and Igbo lit/oral are separate classes. A good amount of the oral/lit class would be to encourage students to study oral stories and write down their own stories. Igbo language class is throughout primary and secondary, while Igbo lit/oral comes in at JSS1, the songs, riddles, and so on learnt in primary school Igbo language carries on into secondary as Igbo lit/oral and matures there on. In Igbo language secondary they'll be writing essays, learning vocabulary, comparing dialects, and more 'technical' work, and lit/oral is more creative. In Igbo language there can even be translation tasks given out which will not only help with the lit/oral class, but produce people who are able to translate all kinds of non-Igbo documents into Igbo. I think communication between parents can be optional between their language and Igbo, because some parents and guardians may not be Igbo at all. I don't want to recreate that era in which students were hounded, whipped and abused into dropping "vernacular" and just giving it an Igbo face this time, for one, teachers in Igbo lands, in whatever type of school, communicate with themselves in Igbo, some even with the kids in Igbo today, so I think finding Igbo-speaking staff and orientating them into just Igbo speech would not only be simple, but would be easier for the staff to a certain extent (as in apart from teaching them new vocabulary). For the children, again, most Igbo children in Igboland at least speak Igbo to themselves, in all types of schooling. Creating an environment where everything around you is Igbo language, including your other classes, it would be difficult for me to see a need to 'enforce' Igbo, although avoiding Engligbo would be the main task. This is assuming this school is in Igbo lands. |
Well, I think starting with people in JSS1 would work in most cases when it comes to implementing Igbo nationally. If it's a private Igbo language school I would start with Primary 1 and JSS1. I would make the status of English a 'major' foreign language that's compulsory to SS3 and take Igbo language and literature and fill the space English/literature now takes. Under all this, I would offer orientation/lessons after school to get pupils familiarised with terms in both Igbo and English. The terms I would make up are mostly mathematical and scientific term since most grammar and literature (olilo udaume, iduazi, etc) have Igbo terms thanks to the existing Igbo subject. Lesser actions would be signage in Igbo, communication emails/fax/website would be available mainly in Igbo. Also in English lessons children would only speak English. |
Problem country. Genocidal state. |
Joejonah:Do you know what a natural disaster is or are you just commenting for the sake of it? |
When will Nigerians start using their own indigenous architecture? And for some reason, I doubt this is a mosque in Nigeria, but that's only a guess. |
investnow2013:What bridge is that? |
Igbo women traditionally inherit her husbands property. The husband will not come and take land from her uhu because he married her. These are some of the reasons why women don't inherit the fathers property. |
I thought some Igbo people said they'd rather stay in Nigeria so they can 'conquer' other regions. Is this the 'conquering'? O dikwa egwu. |
Unless indigenous languages are elevated to the same level as English and also made alternative to compulsory English (especially Hausa), then this proposal is pointless because it has been working fine. |

spyder880:Enugu is greener than most cities I've seen in the world, some European cities and LA/New York would do anything to have greenery like this and I'm not exaggerating. Some parks and maybe added would just be an ace in the hole. Wonderful. |
Every time I see a white Nissan Altima, my palms go sweaty, and my knees get weak. It’s an involuntary reaction born of so many nights being driven around Asokoro pinned to the floor of Tunji’s white Nissan Altima, barely able to breathe, the stench of weed stinging my eyes while I choked on the penis of whomever it pleased Mustapha to force me to pleasure that day.Read on @: http://sugabellyrocks.com/2015/11/surviving-mustapha-audu-and-his-rape-brigade.html @sandraokosun1 you were quoted by sugabelly |
There's no such thing as a complete language. |
Truckpusher:A 17 year old girl vs. the son of an influential person and his friends, in Nigeria, and she named all his friends and no one is making any reasonable protest? Anyway. |

Wouldn't you just sue if someone made such a damning accusation? Oh, right, you're guilty... By the way this is her reply to everyone: http://sugabellyrocks.com/2015/11/surviving-mustapha-audu-and-his-rape-brigade.html |
