Language and Nigeria’s History | IFEOLUWA WOLE-OSHO | TEDxCIU


good day my name is Photoshop and I’m

not shy

from my chair for Africans we’re going

to put W spender

and for not Africans what never been

snide you I’m sure leading ventures like

however it is really good surf culture

with a lot of diversity you actually

look like this I grew a night where I

was born and I trained by good

hard-working parents and the stand about

this is where country will have over 500

languages over 500 tribes and we’re

losing all our culture and all our

languages when I grow I grow with Perez

fulfilled speaking the local dialect was

wrong it was important that he knew how

to speak English I knew how to speak

English well those how good the best job

starts how you spoke that was long this

was our new lingua franca luncheon

acceptance and studies have shown one in

every five veterans to know how to speak

they don’t know that it slowly but

surely we are gradually losing our

languages of all the 500 languages that

exist in nature only five can you reach

400 over 400 languages cannot be written

anything tough or any alphabet or how do

we oppress them

and so well you say that slowly but

surely where there isn’t any now it

Justin stop down large man

affectionately and try sub-saharan

Africa had always had six or always had

a problem with right prior to

polarization we basically had no written

language so the first reason I’m living

hard was absolute ization in Nigeria and

was English and so we began to lose

perspective I am talking about very

fabric of a lot of scenario sure I can

tell you for a fact down one enough

speed not about my new label but I don’t

tell you what the kingdom of Kongo

thought about the dodgy 76227 or what

the Portuguese I want the Senegalese

reboot on Armani Portuguese when they

first arrived their Shores

because you had no written language we

lost all perspective of who we were and

with that lost part of our history if

not all of it and so the real problem

the crux of the matter is this 1314

those were the total number of books

produced by my germs in Nice 91 and we

have a population of order of 70 billion

people so it comes down to the fact that

it’s about one book ha they thought by a

hundred thousand people imagine the

volume of expenses that have been lost

the volume of incidences and results

that have been lost what we think of

ourselves

wonders in module trivia of Seneca what

did he think what he was planning the

crew a warning

is opening when he was flunking the core

Niger all these perspectives are being

lost because we are not writing enough

so this is what we need to do this is

how we need to call this we need to

write you how do you feel about your

country now how do you feel about

yourself now how do you feel about your

government now because if we do not

write it we will use it and our

perspective will be lost to the rigid

perspective and once it is lost

you probably never be able to get it

back so it should be commended upon us

to write more to present our ideas more

to give our perspective on incidences

and opportunities and life options not

more because without it we will move our

descent I’m going to end up with a

personal story as a child I was very

playful and I was the first child in my

household when we ever had a small

workshop of a mouse mmm cross the road and say hey please by studies by eggs
