Hausa language has been described as one of the fastest growing languages as it is spoken all over the world.
The Chairman of the Association of Hausa African Community, Dr Abdulkadir Labbaran Koguna stated this at a ceremony to mark this year’s World Hausa Day held at Rano Local Government Area of Kano State.
Dr Koguna said that a department in the United Nations has recognised and listed Hausa language as number 11 out of 70, 250 languages of the world.
“Apart from this, the language is also recognised by Saudi Kingdom as it was among the 10 languages which this year’s Arafat sermon was translated into,” he added.
