Some idiotic baboons will be saying ignorance here. The first language that colonised Nigeria and not africa countries before the west came was Arabic language. Infact most northern and some southwestern state histories like Osun state was written in arabic. Many of Yoruba dieties documentaries was written and documented in arabic before western colonisation. Don't be mad. That's the first civilization we had that taught us how to read and write. |

IamAsiri: English is adopted like Arabic. none stops us from speaking what we want bt the fact is both are generally adopted. what's the issue with Arabic really?? |

Include ibo, Yoruba, igala, tiv, idoma, Hausa, kanuri, ngas, jararawa etc. Remove Arabic because it is not our official language . |

How is Arabic our official language. OP, are you sure that guy wasn't on ogbomoso loud ![]() |
Re: Redesigning Of Naira Notes: Retain The English & Arabic Languages - Adamu Garba by IamAsiri: 7:19pm On Oct 27, 2022 |
jaxxy: Arabic was not adopted by the country "Nigeria" and that is what is wrong. So, you shouldn't foist it on us by force. English was foisted on us due to colonisation and it became our official language. Both languages were not adopted officially. |
Re: Redesigning Of Naira Notes: Retain The English & Arabic Languages - Adamu Garba by jaxxy(m): 7:24pm On Oct 27, 2022 |
IamAsiri: an adopted language isn't neccessarily foisted. As for Arabic is was adopted by the muslims and majority of the north who are part of Nigeria. u cannot dictate to them like they can't dictate to u. Nigeria is mixed religious and we must always acknowledge and accept it. |

Re: Redesigning Of Naira Notes: Retain The English & Arabic Languages - Adamu Garba by IamAsiri: 7:46pm On Oct 27, 2022 |
jaxxy: The fact that some people decided to adopt it because they like it doesn't make it official. I am sure you know this. There is no way you can argue it; what is unofficial is unofficial. 1 Like |

jaxxy: English is official. Go and find out and stop embarrassing yourself. Or better still, let me help you. https://translatorswithoutborders.org/language-data-nigeria#:~:text=The%20official%20language%20is%20English,are%20all%20used%20in%20Nigeria. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_Nigeria |

IamAsiri: ok beautiful bt Arabic is widely adopted bt not official. like I said its to foster unity not disaffection or intolerance. |
Re: Redesigning Of Naira Notes: Retain The English & Arabic Languages - Adamu Garba by IamAsiri: 8:38pm On Oct 27, 2022 |
jaxxy: But you kept trying to prove how unofficial English is. ![]() Anyway, to foster unity, they should include all the major languages in Nigeria or just leave the official language on it. What irks me is the fact that a clown who says he was a presidential aspirant refers to arabic as an official language in Nigeria. Thank God he is not the president ![]() |

Re: Redesigning Of Naira Notes: Retain The English & Arabic Languages - Adamu Garba by jaxxy(m): 9:01pm On Oct 27, 2022 |
IamAsiri: it's not official bt it's recognised by a majority. That's quite acceptable for inclusiveness since many up north don't speak English the official language. |
Re: Redesigning Of Naira Notes: Retain The English & Arabic Languages - Adamu Garba by IamAsiri: 9:14pm On Oct 27, 2022 |
jaxxy: Just a region out of how many? That's marginalisation of other regions which is what we don't want. That's not "bringing unity", but rather supremacy of a particular region which leads to disunity. |

Why the inclusion of Arabic language again when the corntree isn't a Muslim corntree |
Re: Redesigning Of Naira Notes: Retain The English & Arabic Languages - Adamu Garba by jaxxy(m): 9:30pm On Oct 27, 2022 |
IamAsiri: incorrect. it's not just a region bt also a religious group. They are significant. I know southwest Muslims who also study Arabic. |

Re: Redesigning Of Naira Notes: Retain The English & Arabic Languages - Adamu Garba by unscripted(m): 9:37pm On Oct 27, 2022 |
sotall:bro , look deeper into your analysis.. we are a nation with people of heterogeneous characters.. English represents Christianity to the Muslims the way Arabic represents Islam to Christians... and they are just languages.. so for equality I agree they shud both be on the new notes |
Re: Redesigning Of Naira Notes: Retain The English & Arabic Languages - Adamu Garba by IamAsiri: 9:39pm On Oct 27, 2022 |
jaxxy: So? Some people studied Yoruba too as a language. Southwest Muslims who studied Arabic can read English language as most of them went to school. If Hausa language is the issue, then they should write dubu naira instead of the Arabic on 1000 naira notes and and so on. Some of these your Hausa people... don't they have accounts? How were they able to open accounts in various banks? Why didn't they insist on Arabic account opening forms or why didn't they write their names in Arabic and see their forms thrown out into the dustbin? |
Re: Redesigning Of Naira Notes: Retain The English & Arabic Languages - Adamu Garba by IamAsiri: 9:43pm On Oct 27, 2022 |
unscripted: English does not represent Christianity. Please don't get this wrong. Some Odu Ifa books are written in English language. English language is the nation's official language. |
Re: Redesigning Of Naira Notes: Retain The English & Arabic Languages - Adamu Garba by jaxxy(m): 9:47pm On Oct 27, 2022 |
IamAsiri: I'm not hausa. I don't have to be hausa to understand what hausa feel or face same with other tribes. We are all from.same creator.. there should be a sense if inclusiveness. same way I fight for that for igbos I have same energy for other regions and tribes especially major ones. |
