Olaskybab:

wu dey write in Latin 4 Christ sake?!

MNDY:
An inflammatory topic if you ask me! But wait O! How is Arabic so relevant in our world? Perhaps because the middle east where it belongs, holds one-third of the world's oil (economic trunk card)
----------------
Na so dem force Arabic as a core course to be studied 4 our head 4 my History & Int'l Studies department 4 Kogi State University Anyigba here with no alternative international language!
----------------
I wonder how international Arabic is than French when Arabic tilts towards the Middle East only (where I believe French is too)

orevajude:
A move all well meaning Nigerians should applaud,we all know arabic is not in any way our language so what was it doing on our note in d first place.

aljharem:


I respectfully disagree with you sir.

Arabic is not our language so is English but our official language is English. Just like Niger, their official language is French.

Now how many people can read Arabic ? Lets be honest with ourselves, the only Arabic likes of us can recognise are the ones written in the Quran not taking it to the extent of writing it on our money.

In Nigeria, we need to take different groups along, the Christians are not comfortable with the Arabic inscription on the Note. Why not just remove it and write in Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo and English. This why we can convert more Christians to Muslims just as Prophet Mohammed said (S.A.W)

Regardless of the bigot laden statements so far on the thread, this remains the main reason why Ajami was used on the naira note, CAN is really working though, through ignorance,it is raising the next generation of lord resistance army fighters, who rather than demand good governance would prefer finding new fronts to fight Muslims. Any nation where people put bigotry and fanaticism before tolerance is doomed to be stagnated.

The next to be removed should be the Arabic inscriptions on our military badges, and rankings....Nigeria is a secular state...period.

This madness has to stop, National assembly is built like a mosque, the presidential villa is built like a mosque....This country belongs to us all and is never a religious state. visit any ministry, parastatal or agency of the government in Abuja. the master plan of those buildings have mosques...They couldn't have the freedom to do that in Lagos, and came up with the script that the capital of Nigeria has to be at the center of Nigeria.

We just need to be security conscious cos in matter of days the news that Hausa/Islamic Inscriptions has been removed will go viral, they will tag all of us HARNI (meaning Unbeliever) and may go on rampage killing themselves not me.

I remember my uncle who was a member of MPR telling me that Soludo had good plans for the Naira but the northern hegemony wont allow him. That his problem with Yaradua began the day he raised it in their meeting that Nigeria is a secular state and so should not have any religious inscription in our currency. He said YARADUA heard of it before that meeting ended. Of course his brothers informed him. Yaradua called Soludo as the meeting was ending to ask how true.

Most people think Soludos tenure was not renewed because of the planned devaluation of the naira which presidency claims they were not carried along. but the inscription on the naira was the genesis of Soludos crisis with Yaradua. OBJs grand plan was that Soludo should remain and complete the devaluatuion plan.

In days to come expect the northern elites reaction to this removal.and may be Bokoharam taking more innocent lives in protest...Nigeria belongs to them and we are their slaves...so an average northerner thinks.

Except for those suffering from historical Amnesia, the 2015 struggle to take power by the north is never born out of the love for Nigeria. The North has not forgiven Southern Nigeria for the death of Yaradua. In their heart, in their mosques, its a subject of discuss that Jonathan is seating on their chance and must be unseated no matter what. Ineeded, Jonathan has disappointed all of us greatly but the North seeking power on the premise that it belongs to them or based on vendetta is a NO NO for me and all intellectual minds.

I dont know how we came up with Quota system, but that stuff has only served in the interest of the north. I dont know any southerner who has benefited from Quota system. We sacrificed merit at the altar of that Northern grand plan. If not tell me why Fashola should not be given APC presidential ticket to have a good election. But try that and see the viper react...It must be them or nothing.They annuled June 12, gave it to Weak Shonekan for few months and chased him out again, killed Abiola in the prison so that , his case will remain in the ash bin of history. Today, my people cry for remeberance of June 12 and they laugh from Minna and Kano.they knew what they were doing... If you are up north during the election, and Jonathan is declared winner, better run for your life. They will unleash the evil dragon, what Bokoharam is doing now is childs play compared to the plan.

Please you better stop portraying hausas as illiterates who cant read or write in english. The hausas of the colonial years aint the hausas of today. A typical hausa illiterate of today can speak at least creole english no matter how unrefined it may sound.
And no matter how dull a hausa man may be, he can identify any number be it 5 or 100; thus, he needs NO arabic lang./inscription to tell him what no. 5 or 100 is. So ur excuse is baseless mister.

religion is supposed to be a[b] personal[/b] relationship between a man or woman and God. The foolish muslims that are killing themselves are going to Hell and await double punishment. No virgins nothing, it is heavy burning.


It will take a century to unbrain wash those nigerians that beleive killing there fellow man is a path to heaven. Just like the serpent told adam to eat the apple , they are beliving the same serpent again.

BetaThings:

I went to a public school
I did CRS, I bought a Bible, bought Songs of Praise
Not for 1 second was i taught IRK and have a been a Muslim all my life
I can still recite
"Fight the good fight....."
"Rock of Ages cleft for me...."
"Thine for Ever .........."

Please your people are MUCH MORE intolerant!

jomoh:


In which part of my statement did you read or had the impression that I claim Hausas of today can't read in english. A lot of people lack comprehension and logic skills.

The man was talking about why the arabic inscription was there in the first place. This means he was talking about some 45 to 50 years ago not hausas of today.

Were you thought tenses in primary school? Can't you differentiate between present and past tense? Obviously the man talked in past tense to give reason why the inscription was there in the first place which was clearly not for religious reason.

So I ask again. Why bring religion into this? Even the @OP is ignorant and does not know the difference between arabic and islamic. If you see a bible written in Arabic, would you say its islamic bible?

Everything written in arabic doesn't necessarily become islamic. This are the things the Mods are supposed to have known and corrected before putting the topic on the front page thereby causing religious confusion and e-conflict. Seun I believe your mods should know this.

ILIDEFI:

Christians have reasons to be suspicious of muslims because of events all over the world. Ordinary take over of Mubi for a few weeks, and yet over 70 churches were burnt. Many christians are forcefully converted to Islam everyday, so why should we not be suspicious.

ILIDEFI:
Does it not surprise you that all over the world, no other religion has successfully coexisted with Islam?

ILIDEFI:
For peace to reign, we must all be tolerant, and eliminate all grounds of mutual suspicion.
