IntroductionWhile learning and the use of English was compulsory for Nigerians because of their colonization by the British colonial government, teaching and learning of French was not significant to Nigerians. The French government was not encouraged by the British because of their economic interest in Nigeria. The French really has competed in from English as the international language of commerce, diplomacy and science. In Africa for example, Equatorial Guinea in 1997 declared French as their official language with Spanish. The small islands of Cape Verde and Sao Tome And Principe are also members of La Francophonie and as a result, the French are getting more widely spoken there as well. Nigeria resumes its borders with the French-speaking countries, namely: The Republic of Chad, the Republic Of Benin and Cameroun. No wonder in 1996, the late General Sanni Abacha, the former head of state of Nigeria in Ouagadougou said the new condition of French as the official language? Depending on the s? of the nation. The modern French as the language is spoken, written and used as other modern languages of the world. Accordingly so that Nigerians interact effectively with the French-speaking countries locally or internationally, should be able to not only speak the language fluently but also can participate in seminars and international conferences without much problem. According to Adekunle (1976), the political language of every country should make provisions for the following areas of communication: Internal Communication, Communication international scientific or technical. French is one of the most widely used international trade, scientific research and technology, management, training, literature and so on. With the knowledge of French, Nigerians and French-speaking countries can work together in science and technology. However, this can not be achieved if teachers in France are not used or if those employees are not encouraged to teach the language. The declaration of problemThere is a growing concern about the attitude of Nigerians toward the study on the French in our schools. A good number of them is not enough informed about the usefulness of French in our education system or its importance as an international language. They believe that people should not waste their time studying it. This sensitivity has often misled some teachers of secondary school so much so that were lacking: (a) Includes the object in your school. (b) allows graduates to teach French French.
