Yoruba and Igbo Languague now added to Facebook
Earlier today, about few hours ago, it was spotted that Facebook added the Yoruba and Igbo language, option to it's collection. Finally!
Far-back when it was only the Hausa native language that was on Facebook, it wasn't really a good moment for Nigerian's, because we have heard tweets, posts and arguments on this "language issues". This argument kept-on, and on that even the PDP former's Spoke person Fani Kayode was involved in this drama.
But anyway, that's an old story because Facebok has opened another chapter to aid and improve connectivity in Nigeria, and throughout the World.
Few weeks back, when Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg visited Nigeria, he had the opportunity to see things for himself, and this made him promise to add more of the country's native language to Facebook.
According to Mark Zuckerberg, having local contents on the Facebook platform will help to improve the rate in connectivity, in which people can learn to use the Facebook network more better.

As for the newly added Languages Igbo and Yoruba, it hasn't been officially announced by Facebook, because as that time of changes, the yoruba language option was half-way working, and the Igbo option wasn't even responding, due to ongoing development. But as from any moment from now, it will be made official and announced to the open.
Now, at least we have got our three indigenous languages Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa, on Facebook.
What do you think about this development?
