This powerful message from Yomi Fash-Lanso prompts reflection on the impact of cultural assimilation and underscores the significance of maintaining and cherishing one’s cultural roots, no matter the geographical location.
Yomi Fash-Lanso reveals a concerning trend where Indians have taken on the role of teaching Nigerian children how to speak Yoruba and Igbo. Expressing his lamentation over this new development, he emphasizes the challenging situation Nigerians find themselves in, as parents struggle to communicate in their native languages with their own children.
The actor wrote: “Before It’s all over for Africans. They first made us HATE ourself by HATING our cultures, languages and traditions. And now they will come to teach us our languages, the basis of our existence. Sad indeed.”
