How Private Schools And Parents Are Killing Our Nigerian Local Languages by Vinnie2000(m): 7:45pm On Oct 10, 2023 |
I saw an IJAW Girl Recently, who came from her VILLAGE to Warri in 2020, Got Pregnant for an Urhobo Boy whose Mother is IJAW. She Gave Birth to a Girl and Fast-forward to 2023, I discover that that She and her IJAW Mother-in-law was speaking English to her Daughter! ๐ฏ๐๐ I Painfully Asked Her 'You when be Thick IJAW Girl dey Speak English to your daughter?'. She now Replied 'I want my Daughter to Sabi Speak Correct English o. For their School, Any Wrong English, Dem go FLOG you'. I was WEAK Instantly! See how PRIVATE Schools are Unknowingly DESTROYING and OBLITERATING our Local Languages in Nigeria!๐ By 2040,2050, ALL NIGERIAN LANGUAGES will go EXTINCT, plus the ever Popular Yoruba Language. Now, Every Nigerian PARENTS is Teaching their Children 'Correct English' Because they wants to IMPRESS the Schools their Children Attend.๐ PRIVATE Schools too, Put Pressure on Children to speak 'Correct English' and even Phonetics to IMPRESS PARENTS! TWO GROUPS Trying to Impress Eachother, to the Detriment of our LOCAL LANGUAGES. So I ask, IS THIS TREND GOOD THING? IS THERE ANY BENEFITS IN BECOMING EXPERT ENGLISH SPEAKERS, WHILE ABANDONING OUR NATIVE LANGUAGES? ๐ค๐คจ 55 Likes 3 Shares |

Bro, itโs really patheticโฆ. I donโt know whatโs wrong with dis generation, they barely speak their native languages. Every tribe in Nigeria wants to be speaking English, even the English dem no sabi speak am well. I be confirm Edo guy, when I was growing up as a kid, we use to speak our language (Esan) everywhereโฆ at school, at home, market e.t.c but thatโs doesnโt mean we no sabi English. But if you go to village now, Majority of the children and youth canโt even speak their language. Itโs so sad. They are all forming mumu English. Thatโs why God would continue to bless countries like Russia ๐ท๐บ, Spain ๐ช๐ธ, Croatia ๐ญ๐ท, Finland ๐ซ๐ฎ, China ๐จ๐ณ, Japan ๐ฏ๐ต and Sweden ๐ธ๐ช. They fvcking donโt care about English. They speak their mothers tongue to the fullest, dem no send ur papa. God punish English. 59 Likes 6 Shares |

Blackman languages will continue to be irrelevant until Blackman starts impacting the world positively. So far, blackman has little or nothing to offer the world. So you can't depend on Oyibo technology etc & leave out their language. 46 Likes 2 Shares |

ojun50:u still donโt understand the op. Heโs not saying we shouldnโt speak English, all what heโs saying is that we should also be teaching our children their native language. If u go to aso rock and youโre a Yoruba man, Tinubu will relate with you in Yoruba. When buhari was in aso rock and his Fulani brothers come to visit, he would relate with dem in their native language but that doesnโt mean he donโt speak English. They speak English when they want to address the general public. 30 Likes |

Colonisation has been placed on autopilot since. So many Nigerians don't know Jack about their native languages. Just go to any big private school and do the research, you would be shocked. Aka Gen Z 15 Likes |

Africans dont have the mind of there own that why they wont progress even the op use English, we have 3major languages in Nigeria i think it should be compulsory for every citizen to be able to read and write in those languages, the perception that local dialect is for the uneducated should be stopped, India did not forego there language for English, we should adopt the India model 3 Likes |

I have said this long ago...how can parents and proprietors abolish primary 6 and would even allow primary 4 or 5 pupil to write common entrances examinations all in the name of the child is "brillant"..... How can they be putting exorbitant charges on textbooks which the child will not drop or keep for his upcoming siblings to use? 9 Likes 1 Share |

The White race is a brilliant race! You must give it to them if you want to be sincere. They have distorted the foundation of everything! Translated holy books to English, but never did for science, medicine or engineering books. They have imposed culture, tradition, dressing, diet and etiquette's on even the unborn! Drew maps and boundaries, and even named it. Those lots got foresight! 13 Likes 1 Share |
