This paper makes a brief survey of adult literacy programmes in Kenya and concludes that for African countries to enable their people to control their economic, social and political environment in the 21st century, literacy programmes accompanied by non-formal education must be delivered through the indigenous African languages, the languages through which our people relate to their natural and social environment, indeed to the entire universe, and must focus on the rural economic activities of the learners.
