  I will say it again: the English language is our set back - the flaw. We learn and say, speak it; but we don't understand it. We must encourage the learning of our major languages learnt in schools(DAGONBA,EWE, FANTI, and GA)and apply them to write our LAWS.
  In fact, learning languages makes you resourceful. We must use our God-given attribute to enhance our development. All developed countries use their languages in their daily functions.
  
  Ghanaians complain too much.

  Kpakpo isn't different from the typical Ghanaian who has failed to appreciate the importance of his/her language.
  The fact that he deliberately refused to mention Asante Twi or in general Akan is as guilty as any other person. Perhaps his hatred for the asante's are the reason everything good will never see a day of light; he can't simply refuse to admit that Asante twi is the most popular and widely spoken Ghanaian language and therefore he not referring to Asante Twi in his comments is clear display of hatred for the Asante's.
  The Asante's aren't different from other tribes neither are they superior to other ethnic and tribal groups, but if their language is the commonest, let's admit it, period!
  in every country there are popular languages, it will therefore be strange for lesser known and spoken languages to be used as a medium of communication officially.
  Ewe alphabets and vowels takes its origin from German whose alphabets and vowels aren't exactly the same as the English hence adopting Ewe as the official language means reorientation of Ghanaian alphabets and vowels. I therefore believe using languages like Asante twi which derives its alphabets and vowels mostly from the English alphabets will be the best, I stand to be corrected though.
