Answer:

The Igbo language is currently in a state of decline due to a number of factors

Step-by-step explanation:

The Igbo language is currently in a state of decline due to a number of factors, including cultural assimilation, urbanization, and the rising prevalence of English and other foreign languages. As a result, the language is becoming increasingly less spoken, and fewer and fewer young people are learning it. Additionally, the lack of government recognition and support for the language has further contributed to the language's decline.
