Firm launches Platform to Promote Nigerian Languages, Cultural Heritage

A digital technology product-led company, domiciled in the UK, Afro-European Business Services Ltd, has launched a digital product, AE Learning, to promote Nigerian languages and culture with a mix of German language as an extra.

Speaking on the digital product, the Chief Executive Officer of the company, Oluseun Durowoju, said, “AE Learning, is to aid multi-cultural integration through teaching of mainly native Nigerian and African languages, to anyone who wants to start from scratch or have a basic understanding of different languages and cultures.”

According to him, “AE Learning is for everyone with a love and interest in Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa. In time we will expand, to other African languages. We strive to make these languages easy to understand, easy to relate to and easy for our students. Be it children born outside of Nigeria, those with Nigerian connection and even those children in Nigeria; our product and teachers will make it effortless and fun to learn any of our languages.

“AE learning, is aimed at lifting the image of African languages as vital to the future of the world. Our languages are the only tools that can be used to spread those important messages of driving change, of environmental awareness, of local businesses and of universal acceptance. It will open the eyes of the world to understanding African language and culture better so that there is harmony and integration across the spectrum.

“With a conscious effort to drive our languages, generations of African children or those with interest in Africa, will communicate better and open more doors for progress. Through understanding the language comes a sense of belonging, an urge to make a difference and most importantly, accepting one’s ancestral identity.

“AE learning is targeted at making the current generation of youth and even adults, equipped with their own native language, in addition to an international language of business, so we can create a new avenue for success to thrive in our own countries. We really need to be proud of home.”

Durowoju who doubles as the Chief Creative Officer declared that, “the company also aims to bring major languages of the world to our African audience with ease and convenience. Therefore providing opportunities for African homes and abroad to learn and be conversant with basic understanding of various foreign languages while aiding easy integration to other cultures.”
