Miriam Quansah, Digital Lead for BBC World Service’s Africa Hub, also said that most people had a mixture of surprise and excitement during the announcement and launching of the channel. Pidgin is the common thread in the region, the language of unity spoken by people from all walks of life, and we are excited at the prospect of providing this service.” Being the first of its kind in the digital space, the aim of this platform is to reach a wider range of young viewers, especially women, who do not have the opportunity to listen to and or understand the other BBC World Service channels.Īccording to the BBC’s Editorial lead, Bilkisu Labaran, “…Pidgin is the language that is spoken by so many people across West and Central Africa and for the first time, we will be connecting with the next generation of speakers. To further propagate the essential need of the younger audience for communication in Pidgin, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) World Service recently launched a pidgin channel in Nigeria. However, since the subsequent integration of this Creole language, communication and information sharing have increased especially in rural areas where English is not often spoken. This need led to the introduction of the first pidgin radio broadcast station – Wazobia FM. Over time, the need to bridge the gap between English and our various local dialects have been on the rise. The fluidity and expressive nature of the pidgin language give it a level of uniqueness among other spoken languages in West and Central African communities. ![]()
