On the use of indigenuos languages in the Catholic church in Benin City...Two months ago I had a meeting with the choir master of my church. I registered my displeasure for the non use of Benin songs during church services. His reply was that the choir sees the use of Benin as old fashioned, just like they do not like to speak Benin to one another. We reasoned together and the services has liven up with the use of Benin songs. Many of the worshipers were feeling intimidated and already thinking that God only understand those languages of those wanabe inter colonialist.
