What you guys call Arabic is simply Hausa language using Arabic alphabet

You can use Arabic alphabet to write English sentences, like Anglo-Arabic words, and an Arab won't even know what you are saying

You can write Ibo in Arabic and only an Ibo would understand what you wrote

The inclusion of the script on the Nigerian currency by the British colonial administration was an acknowledgement of the rich literary heritage of a vast number of people in Nigeria who could not read the Latin script– and not a strategy to impose Islam on anyone in Nigeria. Indeed, the British colonial administration had no reason to propagate Islam. Yet on the currencies circulated by the same administration, the “Arabic inscription” was conspicuously present. This was maintained until 2007 when the despised Arabic inscription was removed and replaced with the much-loved Latin ‘inscription’. An example with ₦50 illustrates this.

The ₦50 with the ‘Arabic inscription’ of Ajami merely indicates that it is fifty naira in Hausa. In the redesigned ₦50, the Roman name for the Hausa was ‘naira hamsin’ instead of the Ajamized ‘hamsin’ in the old note. Yet, ‘hamsin’ means fifty in Arabic! So, like it or not, Arabic remains on the naira. To get rid of it, you have to get rid of the Hausa language entirely since about almost 45% of Hausa words are based on the Arabic language.

Further, other multicultural countries pay such homage to multiple literacies in their currency notes. The Indian currency, for instance, has 15 language scripts, including Urdu (Ajami) – despite Arabic not being part of its national languages.

And while not explicitly stated, the links made by the Nigerian economic establishment with Arabic to Islam seem to be part of a move to “de-Islamize” Nigeria – scoring a cheap point, particularly in the way most northern Nigerian states re-introduced Islamic Shari’a in their governance from 1999 led by Zamfara State, and the earlier issue of Nigeria’s membership of the Organization of Islamic Countries (OIC) in January 1986, which the Nigerian Christian (as well as Marxist Muslim) groups were against.

We look forward to the new currency notes in December 2022.

Why is there vested interest in that inscription? Would Muslims have allowed another religious inscription on the naira?

Mrs White Jesus Colonized religious bigot

Shua Arabs in Northern Nigeria all speak Arabic as first language

Northern Nigeria which has 100 citizens learns Arabic through Almajiri education first before western education so Arabic is one of their major lingua franca

Many brainwashed black morronns


If an adult can't differentiate between a language and a religion then such a person is a waste to our civilization

A moroon calling others moroon, so the religion of arabs is now your pride with your black ass? And what did arabs do to the black slaves they bought over centuries in the trans sahara slave trade? What about the religions of your own african ancestors? Mumuuu

Why can't the design carry the Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba inscription instead of some fvcked up Arabic shit I can't understand ?


SmartPolician:
Serious people are concerned about the fast depreciation of naira, some Islamic scholars are more worried about Emefiele maintaining Arabic inscription. Misplaced priority.
