"I see myself as a kind of accidental linguist," my guest for this episode, Mazhun Idris declared with a hearty laugh as he shared insights from his broad expertise as a Hausa localization expert and language & digital rights activist. Mazhun is a Language Lead for Google Hausa Localization Projects and hails from Kano State in northern Nigeria. We discuss the factors that fuel the growing demand for localization into African languages, the shortcomings and gaps, and most importantly, the myriads of opportunities that await language professionals ready to specialise in localization into African languages.
