This book is about breaking new grounds in the world zonal lingua franca.
I am the last but not the least of my other's five children and, I was born, raised, and educated in Nigeria until 1996 when I migrated to the United States of America for further studies into linguistics research and documentation. From my tender age I recognized the importance for an indigenous universal zonal lingua-franca for my homeland and the surrounding West African (ECOWAS) member nations and began my lifelong vision by the evolution of what is now known as the Guosa language. There are currently over 500 indigenous languages and dialects being spoken in Nigeria; and about twice this number in other West African countries. Many of these languages are fast becoming extinct due to so many militating factors against West African indigenous languages and dialects. It was over 30 years ago that I completed and published the first Dictionary of the Guosa language. It is my inspiration that the adoption of the Guosa language will be embraced by the multi-ethnic and cultural fabrics known as Nigeria and other West African nations - Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Indigenous Zonal Lingua-franca for Peace, Unity, Identity, Political Stability, Tourism, Arts, Culture and Science; bridging linguistic and cultural barriers among the West African zonal countries, the United States of America, Europe and the rest of the world
