warya123: Somalia and Ethiopia only african countries that have their native language as the national language.

kengis: We should have african languages as official but then again we would have to use "latin" letters (alphabet)

most Africa languages don't have their own alphabet and use Latin anyway

davidif: The picture of those men are not of Africa but Papua New Guinea which is close to Australia and New Zealand, and believe you me that most of Papua new guinea is a mordern society like naija complete with corruption and unemployment but the pictures you see here are in isolated regions and tribes.

here is a quote from the Rwanda article "But many oppose the change, arguing that frequent educational changes create instability and that Kinyarwanda is not useful internationally" so that "not a useful language" excuse is still there

"Just 8 percent of Rwandans speak French, and 4 percent speak English, according to the government."

Kinyarwanda (the indigenous language of Rwandans) is in use there officially.

Eventually they will probably broaden the scope of this initiative.

i forgot about Rwanda they are doing fine for now. one reason why french is losing ground is because Paul Kagame says France helped with the genocide. and we all know France loves to keep francophone nations under there influence or else... grin

SmoothCrim: That is why I believe one should learn it... What real difference will making a local language the official one make...

In Ghana it is possible but, it is impossible in a country like Nigeria!! Which one would you pick??

you can always split Nigeria grin

Culture › Re: African Languages As Official In Government by TerryCarr(op): 7:58pm On Jul 28, 2012

SmoothCrim: My whole point has been that English is no longer a European language but, a world language!!!

90 percent of Ghanaians speak or understand some Twi and it could be a national language but, what would that change??

Bring fake pride??

I want REAL pride!!

English language of today has no cultural value it is just a language of business
