There's nothing wrong with making Yoruba language mandatory in Lagos State.

If you don't like it, return to your state of origin and school.

Local languages must not be allowed to die in Nigeria. Every Nigerian school should embrace this.

If it's optional or for only students in certain departments, it's still okay.

But asking ALL the students to compulsorily offer it makes no sense. The university should be treated as a citadel of knowledge and not as playground for local politics.
why do you wanna school in Lagos if you are not ready to learn Yoruba?

Go and school somewhere else or go to federal school in the same Lagos.

Can you go to France as an English speaker and expect them to teach you in English because you are special?

Using France as an example is illogical

We are In the same country with a general language. Yoruba is not a general language

It can be offered as a course but not to be forced down on everyone.

Remember this is university

I think the main issue is that they don't truly teach Yoruba language it's more like Yoruba literature or Yoruba grammar, you need to be able understand Yoruba to attend.

You think South East runs by propaganda as you people. What is the big deal about making a language compulsory for students.
See proof below. In fact as far back as 2011, most universities in the east had made Igbo compulsory

This is well explanatory logic and you still don't get it.

The general language in Nigeria is English, but not general language in south west Nigeria.

English and Yoruba are official language in (Lagos state) Yoruba land.
Not by sentiment but by law passed by the state government.
Which means Yoruba is as important as English anywhere in Lagos.
Any state institution in Lagos must take Yoruba and English serious for communication.


They didn't force Yoruba on federal school which belongs to all Nigerians but state school which belongs to Lagos.

Now back to logic you failed to get, can you go to France as non french speaker and expect not to learn french in their schools?

Do you even know you have to take special English test to study in UK despite the fact that you are coming from English speaking country?

your language shouldn't die but making it GNS it's wrong. Don't forget Yorubas are also in my state and other states as well. Imagine forcing them to learn my language instead of willingly learning it. You guys are bigot.

how is that an issue?

Why would anyone want to school in Yoruba state school without understanding basic Yoruba grammar when the 2 official languages of the state are Yoruba and English?

LASU is not the first to align the town and gown with the indigenous language of the host. This is even coming late but it's better late than never.

It is hypocrisy when someone claims to have spent donkey years in Yorubaland like Mr Obi but still needed to hire an interpreter like Prof Pat Utomi to help him do even as basic as greet in Yoruba. You will even hear "I schooled in Yorubaland " but ask same person to say a sentence in Yoruba, nada. Take same person to America for 2 weeks, s/he will come back speaking English through his nose.

The indigenous language everywhere in the world remains a very important tool for sociological advancement. Those who came to Yorubaland when we relaxed the emphasis on the use of Yorubaland are those who were largely behind the hate, bigotry and lies against their Yoruba host.

Other universities in the SW,especially the prestigious 1st generation universities like University of Lagos (UNILAG), University of Ibadan (U.I) and Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) and top Polytechnics like Yaba Tech, Ibadan Polytechnic etc will soon follow suit.

Go and argue with LASU authorities.

Everyone should learn a local language in the university.
