Abstract

This paper explores the role of communication in a Nigeria Language as a vital tool for achieving national development. A nation that loses its indigenous language, loses its culture, and a nation that loses its culture is dead. Language is a national identity through which national values and norms are transmitted. Communication in a given Nigeria Language thus express Nigeria’s value and norms, as well as sustaining her national identity and development. This paper, therefore, argues that communication in a given Nigeria Language has the potential to foster a sense of national identity promote cultural values, and drive development.
