Changes
are inevitable in both civilization as a whole and in humans. The majority of
the time, social change in a country is brought about on a global scale. The
intentional and unintentional changes that occur in our culture are explained
by a variety of theories. They include
theories on conflict, evolution, and different agents of change like invention
and finding. Our society, politics,
family, and even our education have all been impacted by social change. Hence,
the pre-colonial, colonial, military, and what might be referred to as the
democratic eras are some of the stages that the Nigerian society has gone
through. Although the society undergoes changes as a result of each step, this
society's desire for change has not yet been fully satiated. There is a
constant search for improved social reforms and conditions because change is a
fact of life. Particularly in Nigeria, societal change has occurred over time
and continues to occur. It is advised that Nigeria should preserve its native
language because it has played a significant role in social change since the
post-Colonial era. These changes can be attributed to a number of variables,
including language education, technology, modernization, environment,
population, etc. It does, however, demonstrate that there are additional
variables at play.
