...Except Ethiopia, and the arabic countries, all african countries are using european colonial languages as the only official languages for public administration.
You can’t write a letter in Yoruba, Ibo, Hausa to the Nigerian public administration and receive an answer in the same language.
Europe is a very small continent. 3 times smaller than Africa, 4 times smaller than America. The combined sized of all EU countries is smaller than the US or China, and the whole European continent is just the size of the African Sahara area. Madagascar is more than 2 times bigger than the UK, and Congo is 5 times the size of France.
If the small EU can manage 24 working languages, how can’t the Big Nigeria manage at least 3 to 5 working languages in their parliament or public administration?
