I am. It has been shown African kids perform better at school being taught in their vernacular..or better yet go tell a Tanzanian to put a European language first and maybe you'll understand then. As an American you speak one language, barely two in rare cases. Africans speak numerous languages, so they understand language and its politics better than you, and if they say they are done with English after a couple generations of experience with it who are you to question them?
You just want the whole world speaking english. If people are eager to do business with them, then learn a bit of their language for a change rather than the old way of hiding behind the convenience of colonialism.

Good luck with that.
