I don't know why Africans love to bastadise their languages so much. It is a sign of colonial-mentality/inferioriority complex towards the rest of the world. With Igbos and Yorubas happily anglicising their languagems, while the Hausas joyfully Arabise theirs, within a few generations the Nigerian geographical space would have lost all of its African languages!
Is that progress ? development ? being civilised ?
