I am teaching myself Swahili as my ancestry dna test said I was 22 percent Kenyan. Ever though I am British Nigerian with Nigerian parents and grandparents .But I am from semi bantu ethnic Ibibio in Nigeria and many of our forebears are kenyan and tanzania.There many Nigerians who have Kenyan ancestors I dont think people know how many Bantu people left Kenya and went to Nigeria. People think they only left Nigerian Cameroon border 3000 years ago , went to south and east Africa but they came back too.And birth Ibibio, Efik ,Tikar, bamoun
Black people are the first inhabitants of all the America's, they had to kill off them , afterwards import more from Africa people who didn't know the land and defenseless
A Nigerian guy I know said English is Nigeria’s 1st language. I told him that is NOT true. The Europeans came to Africa and took everything from us even our language.
Many Afro Colombians can trace their ancestry back to the Congo and they also speak Swahili there, many Colombians love Rumba music which is from the Congo.
Hey Zack how you doin? I am so called African American, You have encouraged me to speak another language. If you could learn English in 3 months that's inspiration for me. Here in America in New York there is a lot of spanish speaking people. I've been dabbling in spanish but now I will focus more on accomplishing this goal. I too want to know what the hell there saying about me. LOL 😅Swahili is next. Now I'm running with it. LOL!!
English language should be a third language in all African countries so that we can stick to our culture and traditions. English language is used to steal patriotism and cause individuals identity crisis in Africa
If you heard hakuna matata,jenga and safari what are u waiting for to learn swahili? This language can pronounce any words from any language, swahili singer can do collabo with any type of language lot of advantages in swahili.
it was good until she said to send people to Kenya to learn Spanish. Hell to the Fuck No! No more European or Foreign languages on the continent. Time they learn how to speak the African language and respect the African people and the Diaspora!

Swahili is the most popular language and that is why Morehouse College (HBCU) here in Atlanta has it as a language course.

Sounds like a ploy to get money for the lawyers. Imagine the mis-understandings and lawsuits.
