Description

Introduction Nigeria with a population of over 120 million is the most populated country in Africa. With more than 450 ethnic groups speaking over 390 different languages, Nigeria thus has language diversity which makes bilingualism/multilingualism inevitable. It has enormous human and material resources with Nigeria being the seventh in terms of countries with crude oil reserves. When Nigeria obtained its independence from Great Britain in 1960, the black race both in Africa and in the Diaspora, looked up to it for leadership in the area of Science, Technology, Agriculture and Education to mention a few. However, forty eight years after independence, Nigeria has failed to provide the expected leadership.
