dc.descriptionLanguage plays a crucial role in teaching and learning situation hence the need to use the appropriate language in education. The trend all over the world especially among the developed nations is that mother tongue should be used as a medium of instruction in early years of the child's education especially primary education. This has helped countries like, Spain, Germany, U.S.A., Japan and U.K., just to mention a few, in no small measure to achieve sustainable development. Nigeria is not left out in formulating a policy that stipulated that a child should be taught in his/her mother tongue, first language or language of the immediate environment. However, it is unfortunate to note that most Nigerian primary schools, especially private ones, see the policy as a mere suggestion rather than a policy that should be strictly adhered to.
