I believe we should all learn from this young lady that has adopted the name: Titilayo. She does not live in Nigeria but speaks Yoruba language fluently. For those of us that have refused to teach our children our own indigenous language, but insist on English as the only language they communicate in, as if speaking their Mother Tongue will make them "lesser human beings".
Unfortunately when they grow up, they become confused as they don't know who they are, as a people without a culture is lost, and your culture can only be built on your language.
Kudos Titilayo.
