Nigeria Masterweb announces the launch of the website learnigbolanguage.com. Founded by Dr. Matthew Uzukwu, an author and a college professor, learnigbolanguage.com was established to promote the Igbo language, a language the United Nations warns could be in danger of dying because native speakers of the language do not frequently communicate in it, and because of a paucity of publications in written Igbo. The web site features books written in the Igbo language, an Igbo lesson page updated monthly, a bilingual newsletter—in Igbo and in English, and many more.
Learnigbolanguage.com is the only known website published to a large extent in Igbo with appropriate punctuation marks. Other sites have scanty Igbo text due to lack of Igbo punctuation enabling web publishing software. Learnigbolanguage.com would work towards the development of such software, when funding becomes available.
