Reasons why we have Arabic inscriptions on Naira notes

Seun:
Obviously, at the time the decision to use Ajami on the naira note was made, the Hausa population was larger than any other ethnic group that may have deserved special consideration.

One thing that I have noticed is that whether there is "arabic" (Ajami) on the naira note or not, an Igbo man or woman can earn it and spend it with no problems. This is a non-issue.

Hausa population is NOT larger. Stop spreading lies.

It may not have a direct effect on those who don't understand what it means but to those who understand it, it creates a complex. It creates a superiority complex that enables the containment of an erroneous self worth. It makes these ones feel they are more important than everyone and irrespective of your view on it, it tells on you.

Saying that you spend the money and don't care what's written there is an oversight. Same goes for saying you don't care if our National Assembly looks like a mosque. It has no direct impact on you, but because symbolism is powerful, because symbolism creates an impression in the mind, it creates a complex in the minds of citizens.

Let's take the 50 naira note for example. We have the Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba cultures in it. See how these three tribes carry themselves in Nigeria. Whenever they look at that note and see their cultures, just three cultures over the hundreds of cultures we've got here, that ego is massaged. That idea that they are better than everyone is stimulated.

Symbols matter. From the Eye of Horus in the American dollar, to the cross and moon of the Christian and Islamic folks. Symbols matter. It may not affect you but it affects how others, those people who understand and appreciate it, respond to you. Better care if you want a spiritually homogenous country.
