Which mazhab should one follow?

Q: When I learnt about Islam as far as I remember I was never told about which madhab or Islamic law I should follow, do I need to follow one or it doesn't matter, also how do decide when you have a basic understanding of Islam? 

A: All our ulama are in agreement that you should follow one, preferably the mazhab that people in your town follow. 

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
