loverman what is your own.
People gathered to be the first to spend the new notes.

babyosisi:

THE Muslim Students Society of Nigeria (MSS), Northern states chapter has called on the federal government to urgently re-inscribe the old Arabic inscription on the new naira notes.
A statement signed by the director, Publicity Committee of the association, Malam Yaqub Al-Rigassiyyu, and a copy of which was available to Weekend Triumph in Kaduna said the body noted that history bears testimony to the fact that Arabic inscription is a heritage of the Muslims and Hausa people and one of the ways through which they communicate among themselves, regardless of their ethinic and geographical backgrounds.

How many yoruba muslims and hausa muslims communicate in arabic? Since when did arabic become one of our national languages?

babyosisi:

The statement stated that the federal government has to make a U- turn and review the policy for the sake of peaceful co- exitence in the country, noting that, the amalgamated Nigeria represents the religion of Islam, which has millions of fallowers in the country.

Since when did a group of renegade muslims begin to hold the nation to ransom? Are the arabic inscriptions now the pre-reqisite for peaceful co-existence in the country? Do these people realise that other religions exist and that this is not the Islamic republic of Nigeria?
When did the "amalgamated Nigeria" (Nigeria's greatest disaster to date) start representing the religion of islam? Is this the road to Iran?

babyosisi:

According to the statement, the society condemns in totality the removal of Arabic inscription on the new notes, calling on the Muslim ummah, Hausa people and well wishers to reject the new naira notes and protest gainst it until the Arabic inscription is re- inscribed.
The society however, called on religious and opinion leaders to also condemn the development which may cause chaos and social instability among Nigerians, adding that the Muslim Ummah stands firm against all injustices and will continue to struggle until justice prevails.

grin grin grin This people must be living in some illusion. So of all the INJUSTICES they could find, removal of arabic inscriptions was the most important? Did someone ask this people what the arabic inscriptions add to the value and purchasing power of the naira? With more than 70% of all Nigerians living below the poverty line (the vast majority provided by the north!), should our "struggle against injustice" be focused on arabic inscriptions?
Have this people forgotten that their region accounts for 79% of the world's polio cases?

Pray how does the removal of arabic inscription cause "chaos and social instability"among Nigerians? Thanks to 40 yrs of misrule, corruption, inefficiency and nepotism primarily by the northern elite, can there be any more recipe for "chaos and instability"?

babyosisi:

The sociey also condmned in an unequivocal term, what it called the barbaric act of the United States and its allies on Iraq and Afghanistan and its attempt to launch an attack on Iran .

Since when did the problems of Iraq, Afghanistan and Iran become the responsibility of Nigerian muslims? Iran and Iraq might be at war or at the brink of war and yet their infrastructure is miles ahead of that in Nigeria? Iraq has been at war for the better part of 4 yrs and yet her emergency services are far better than those Nigeria can ever muster more than 30 yrs after the civil war!

babyosisi:

It's either we've run out of nama or these people have issues!!

As long as their is oil, hausas could care less about their nama.

needed,or egghead or whatever your name is-you are a disgrace to the very profession you claim!Rabble rousing and posturing would not be of much help here!Why not go Kano,Gusau or Daura and instigate the genocide of innocents as your forebearers have been doing?Starting an ethnic/tribal/religious riot would really prove your asinine,mediavial,archaic,outlandish views.Sicko!
Not to worry,i feel your frustation.Call on the Ummah maim,kill plunder rape. C'mon don't be a fool-never stereotyped,but once again people prove the very idea that the North is just a region of mischief makers.Belloti,Dansamani,dranoel,laudate come out o!Josboy wey you?

The call for rejection of the new naira notes by the leadership of the Muslim Students Society of Nigeria has shown us that Youths are being used to perpetuate evil in our society. The MSS has never come out to condem the injustice being inflicted on the Niger Delta people, They never see anything wrong in Rogues such as Atiku trying to come back to rule Nigeria at all cost, They never bothered about the level of unemployement in Nigeria, but are bothered by the non iclussion of ARABIC signs on the new naira notes. This is not the time to tell MSS anytrhing as they will realise the reality of life after graduations, Unemployement is a major thing they will battle with and then poverty will creep in gradually. By then if anybody gives them money they should reject it base on the grounds that it has no arabic inscriptions.

Core issues that bother the nation as a whole will not be addressed, but some dumbass retarded mofos would rather pick superficial things and bitch about everything. Arabic is and will never any of our languages, so why are them MMS getting their titties in a twist? They can go shove a whole bunch of cactus up their ass for all i care.

Some of you guys here are just taking this thing as a religion crysis or something else, u should not be talking of this either, cos if u can think very well about the Nigerian history on our Independent, Sir Ahmadu Bello is the top man that made Nigeria, when the note was sign of Arabic then, why them talk then that they should change it that Nigeria is not Arabic state or so, Arabic sign in our money is not mean that's Nigeris is Islamic state or something, is that respect of the old ppls that made Nigeria a country, cos that's the only thing them will be seeing and think about wat they do to the Nation as well.

Stop saying nonsense! Nigeria would have been 1000x better off without Ahmadu Bello and his band of retrogressive peoples! Ahmadu Bello WAS NOT one of those who "made" Nigeria! But for him, Nigeria would long have gained independence before 1960. Read your history books!

Since the arabic inscriptions on the naira is out of "respect for the old ppls that made Nigeria a coountry", why have we not included latin, hebrew and aramaic out of respect for the christian leaders who fought for independence rather than the northern charlatans who reaped where they did not sow?
Re: Muslims Reject New Naira Notes: No Arabic Inscription by Olart(m): 4:14pm On Mar 08, 2007
Definitely, needeg or whatever, did not write the BS ealier posted, but it goes to show how easily gullible millions of semi-literate human beings can be in Nigeria, especially in the northern part. Are u still suprised why we always have religious riots in the north??

Needegg, next time, don't believe every free-flowing write-up or argument, that man u copied his article was full of sh---t. His argument were mischevous, myopic and dangeroulsy stupid. The bottom line is, arabic as language is foreign to Nigeria, it source is principally islamic, and does not represent any tribe in this country other than a religion. If the original purpose of inscribing it was for the illetrate in the north to read, then everyone in the north should be happier nowo that it is in hausa, because both xtians and muslims in the north can identify the hausa language (even the minorities of the middle belt will identify more with hausa than arabic inscription). Unless the original purpose of putting the arabic sign was to propagate a religion by covert force, then it is expeted that these type of noise will be made principally by the islamic councils. Ask me, Adegbite is a Yoruba man, his language is clearly written on the new note, his tribesmen have nothing to do with arabic language, but he still wants the inscription there and you stand there to argue that arabic inscription has nothing to do with islamic religion. Can you see the B--LSH-T in the argument you are propagating??

What were the contributions of Sardauna to Nigeria at large?That is the problem with you folks~inability to express yourself in common english a la paucity of aplomb and intellect!Whatever that was on the notes does not represent the unity in diversity that has been sunk in our ears for so long.We were never an Arabic/muslim state,we are a secular state and thoseinscriptions originally had no business there!
Instead of commenting on real issues the North and its' moles and minions like Lateef Adegbite and Arisekola are doing what they know best to do-fan embers of dissent!When MKO was jailed the same council that he was Vice of kept quiet. Now this lame new Sultan,a supposed educated fellow is just an embarrassment to the nation,we should look at things objectively instead of igniting the flames of strife.Well so much for the northern elite~never surprised.
Egghead joins the admirable list of the spawn of the north that cannot defend their actions on the www and instead posture ,grandstand and hem their way when challenged.Another product of the mythical nomadic grandiosity like Big donkey his kith and ally

Re: Muslims Reject New Naira Notes: No Arabic Inscription by nigeria1: 11:36pm On Mar 08, 2007
I would assume he never said so,  and all this men were lied against,  The naira look good, 
Arabic in the naira had nothing to do with muslims,  what it says on it again is in hausa ,  and Soludo did not change anything,  all he did was rewrite it in Hausa , and not in Arabic,

former note says for N10. naira goman,  which mean N10,  the new note still say naira goman,  but this time in hausa ,  so nothing really change,  The sultan may have never said so,  just may be the press,

We have definitely run out of cheeks,any of these hoodlums attempting anything will be in for a huge surprise.
People are definitely sick and tired of their endless whinnings.
The Southerners in the North should be very prepared for anything,these people do not think like the rest of us.
Re: Muslims Reject New Naira Notes: No Arabic Inscription by debosky(m): 12:43am On Mar 09, 2007
let them reject the money, more for the rest of us!!
Re: Muslims Reject New Naira Notes: No Arabic Inscription by Nobody: 1:30am On Mar 09, 2007
This people are a disaster and a drag to the development of this nation. Other serious nations like Ghana are taking huge steps to develop their nations, our sultans are busy haranguing Soludo over islamic inscriptions.

God save Nigeria!

Re: Muslims Reject New Naira Notes: No Arabic Inscription by abdkabir(m): 11:37pm On Mar 09, 2007
Y don't u stop your paranoia. Its seems to me many of u just enjoy slandering the northerners with a non-constructive justification.The man in the

picture, if he's a muslim just goes ahead to show that the majority of ordinary muslims are indifferent about the arabic issue.

So y make a big deal out of the issue.
Re: Muslims Reject New Naira Notes: No Arabic Inscription by debosky(m): 11:40pm On Mar 09, 2007
because your irresponsible leaders are making provocative statements as usual - SCIA and muslim students association

you expect us not to be worried? if muslims in northern nigeria killed people over cartoons they never even saw from denmark, then we have to be on our guard, you muslims will not be allowed to kill anyone over some flimsy excuse that there is no arabic on currency.

never again.
