I've always wondered why I don't speak my language fluently.
Growing up, I was always code-switching between Igbo and English. English won, mostly because it was everywhere. In school, on my phone, in my ambitions. Igbo, my native language, was reserved for special occasions: greeting my grandmother, church announcements, or those moments when adults didn't want young people to understand what they were saying.
Sadly, this reality isn't just mine. It's the reality of millions of young Nigerians watching their language disappear in real time. As my close ones always say — language is culture, and culture is language.
That's why I built PARROT.
What is PARROT?
