FG Begins Initiative To Teach Mathematics In Yoruba Language



The federal government, through the National Institute for Educational Planning and Administration (NIEPA), has commenced moves towards the teaching of mathematics subjects in Yoruba.

To achieve this, the institute said it has taken a bold step towards revolutionising math education in the country by hosting a pioneering 2-day training on teaching mathematics using the Yoruba indigenous language and early grade mathematics.

NIEPA’s Media Officer, Bodunde Tenabe, said in a statement that the training brought together renowned experts Dr. Kehinde Adenegan, Dr. Sulaymon Mohammad Raji, Dr. Tolu Omiyale, and Folajogun Akinkuowo, who delivered insightful sessions on various topics, which included a translation overview of the primary 1-6 mathematics curriculum in Yoruba.

The acting Director General of NIEPA, Dr David Shofoyeke, said that the training, in partnership with Yoruba Mathematics Class on YouTube, marked NIEPA’s first public training on utilising Yoruba language to teach mathematics to early-grade students.

He said, “Early grade reading (EGR) and early grade mathematics (EGMA) have been in operation in the northern part of Nigeria, where Hausa is being used in schools. So, why can’t we embrace and sustain what we have in our own part of the world?

” Also, implementation of teaching mathematics in early grade mathematics, developing and lesson planning of mathematics topical contents in Yorùbá, the importance of indigenous language in education, the role of language in teaching, understanding leadership instruction, and supporting teachers in early grade mathematics were discussed.

Speaking, Adenegan, who incorporated mathematics drama into his teaching approach, emphasised that “it’s high time we leveraged our indigenous resources to enhance classroom instructions and make teaching-learning effective, with language choice being a crucial factor.”

The statement added that “the workshop is designed to promote cultural relevance and sensitivity in mathematics education, enhance students’ understanding and appreciation of mathematical concepts within their cultural context, support the development of bilingual education programmes that integrate Yoruba language and culture, and empower educators to create inclusive and culturally responsive learning environments.

“As Nigeria strives to transform its educational landscape, this pioneering effort by NIEPA sets the stage for a revolutionary shift in math education, empowering learners and preserving cultural identity.”
