Hello Gladys,

I've just begun the Igbo language wiki school for open teaching and learning at World University and School - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Igbo_language (before WUaS moves into a new wiki emerging from Wikidata, which is Wikipedia's database for its 358 languages). This Igbo language wiki page will eventually be in Igbo.  And here's the beginning Nigeria World University and School - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Nigeria - in which WUaS seeks to offer online CC MIT OCW-centric Bachelor, Ph.D., law and M.D. degrees, as well as I.B. high school degrees, in Nigeria's official and main languages (depending on what makes sense).

I just left a phone message, as well as posted this Tweet about last night's event here - https://twitter.com/sgkmacleod/status/867424487272177665 and https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch and https://twitter.com/scottmacleod.

Perhaps you will become the head of Igbo language wiki school at World University and School - in Igbo.

Looking forward to communicating further about all of this.

Regards, Scott
