Governor Ortom’s Aide Asks Nigerian Central Bank To Remove Arabic From New Naira Notes, Use English, Nigerian Languages.


They said removing Arabic inscription from the new naira notes would give all tribes, regions and ethnic nationalities a sense of belonging.



Some Nigerians have called on the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), to remove the Arabic inscription from the redesigned naira notes.

They said removing Arabic inscription from the new naira notes would give all tribes, regions and ethnic nationalities a sense of belonging and reassure them that Nigeria does not belong to one tribe.

SaharaReporters reported on Wednesday that the CBN announced its plan to redesign some naira notes.

The CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele, who disclosed this while addressing journalists on Wednesday, said the new notes will be in circulation from December 2022.

He advised Nigerians to take their old notes to banks in exchange for the new notes.

According to Emefiele, the new notes include N200, N500 and N1000.

The CBN under Emefiele has been accused of policy somersault and failure to address the most fundamental fiscal challenges of the country.

Reacting to the announcement, the Senior Special Assistant to Governor Samuel Ortom on Media and Publicity, Tever Akase, said that Nigerian languages should be on the currencies, not Arabic.

Akase who stated this on his Twitter account wrote: “Those redesigning the naira notes should ensure that inscriptions of all Nigerian languages are on the currencies.

“If this is impossible, they should remove the existing Arabic inscriptions and leave only English on the new notes. Arabic is not Nigeria’s 2nd official language.”

Nigerian baby politicians and their ego. Amaechi confessed he is scared to enter his State because of Wike.

Is that the President Nigeria needs? While Tinubu was a deliberate and methodical politician, Osinbajo was drafted into politics.

There is nothing in his nature that indicates he would not have happily remained a comfortable middle class lawyer had he not met Tinubu.

Meanwhile Tinubu is a politicians Politician. A deliberate leader of leaders. He was a Senator in his late thirties.

He was fighting Abacha in an organised fashion, through NADECO, at an age most Nigerians today are still trying to decide what they want to do with their lives.

Amaechi, Osinbajo etal should drop ego and support Tinubu or they can get lost. How many battles have either won and what battle has Tinubu, who has faced more than most, lost?

Some will mention Obi. The coward was pleading with OBJ on his knees yet still got impeached. Tinubu not only stood up to OBJ but totally retrenched Obasanjo's influence, through the PDP, from the SW.

Nigerians are too petty and tribalistic. If not it will be obvious only Tinubu can weild power productively on behalf of the South today.

Buhari did same.on behalf of the North because he is authoritative and as iconically supported as Tinubu is.

Difference is that Tinubu is fairer, more tolerant,and more detribalised and more modern than Buhari. He will get more results than Buhari by far.

We should not waste the turn of the South indulging weakling any section of the country would bully with ease as happened to GEJ. Are we not ashamed at how terrorised Nigeria is becoming because North does not want to grant Nigeria modern and more effective policing and security architecture?

US, UK and European nations are evacuating their citizens from Abuja currently and we are still clowning around. The rescue mission belongs to Tinubu alone.

I am tipping Tinubu to be an Awolowo of today. A father of the rebirth of Nigeria. He will never fail.Unless of course death stops him.
