B.A Kiswahili
Easily the most important indigenous African language, Kiswahili is one of the two most widely spoken African languages, alongside Hausa. With an estimated 50 million speakers (compared to Hausa’s estimated 25 million), Kiswahili’s significance on the African continent is impossible to underestimate. The development of the Kiswahili language, with its powerful Arab and colonial influences, makes it an intriguing point of study for linguists, historians as well as Africa focused enterprises.
