Honestly, that question of yours is confusing, sorry Dear, i cant answer the question
What are the roles of english language in nigeria
Nigeria is a huge country with a very large population and has many languages spoken in it. English is an official language of Nigeria, but many others are recognised. It is because there is such a diverse amount of people and cultures in Nigeria, that it would be difficult to have one language as a national language.
The official language of Nigeria is English. However there are over 500 living languages in Nigeria although Nigerian Pidgin English is popular
British settlers; Nigeria was colonized by the British.
English is the official language of Nigeria although there are literally hundreds of spoken language in the country. English was chosen to reconcile cultural and linguistic differences.
Your question is not clear - English is the official language in Nigeria
Besause the american started the Nigerians and by their heredity the English language started developing in Nigeria
English is the official language of Nigeria, and it also functions as a lingua franca. Nigeria has no national language.
English is used as a second language in Nigeria due to its history as a British colony. The British introduced English during colonization, and it became the official language of administration, education, and communication. This has continued to be the case since Nigeria gained independence, leading to English being widely spoken and taught in the country.
Bcos
There are 1000+/- languages in Nigeria. So, English, or a form of it, is used as the official language and general lingua franca.
