In today’s Nigeria, nothing much has been achieved in the area of encouraging the teeming youths and children to speak their local dialect.
Many children hardly speak their local dialect as English language is relegating indigenous languages.
Though it is believed that most parents are guilty of not teaching their children their dialect, several government agencies and private institutions have also neglected that area, which actually contributes immensely to the development of tourism in Nigeria.
