Summary, etc "Some of us have argued that without education through the mother tongue or another equally familiar African language at all levels of education there is no future for African development. The experience of post-colonial Asia and Western Europe point irrefutably to the inherent value in mother tongue education or at least education in popular, widely spoken, local languages. We have frequently argued that the prosperity and economic prowess of modern Asia is, in no small measure, attributable to the use of languages confidently understood, spoken and written by the overwhelming masses of the people"
