It would be difficult to change the languages, as they have a lot to do with who we are. You are Ibgo, you speak Ibgo, you are Zulu and you speak Zulu, etc. I think French and English are some of Africa's official languages.

She is good, but not perfect. I could try to make her better, but I love her as she is, love her way too much to want to change a thing about her. She is Africa, my mother.

Is  only difficult not impossible.

We can make any Language in Africa our official language irrespective of where it comes. It just matter of decision and policy.  This is exactly one thing  want change in Africa.

Yea, perhaps for administrative purposes only. As I think that it would be impossible for all our folks in those tiny villages to change their languages and adopt a new one called 'African' and 'imposed upon' them by policy-makers. However, if  the language  is tailored for official communication across the continent, that would work. But which language would that be?

I think what Ogboso means is official language from any Africa's tribes just like we commonly use English and French. Not people changing their local language.
