Lol, seriously am beginning to get tired of this our dear country, and the major reason is based on religion, always preaching "peace" but no attributes of so called peace; please live and let live! God gave man freewill to choose. Stop being a fanatic, if a Muslim person is doing the good work let's support him irrespective of his religion and same goes to the Christian. Let's support one another and put religion aside, we're all human created by the Almighty God.

Buhari and his zoo CBN deliberately refused to print new "Jonathan's 100 notes". The idea is to make Nigerians see N100 notes as the problem. Unfortunately, they can't f00l everyone all the time.

As soon as Buhari and his zoo CBN gets enough complaints from Nigerians about "Jonathan's N100 notes", they will go ahead to print new notes. Of course, the new notes will come with the Islamic inscription since that's the underlying agenda.

As far as Buhari and his zoo CBN are concerned, Nigeria is an Islamic country.

This set of persons need to be cautioned before they metamorphose into a terrorist group!

In a forward looking nation I would expect that specialists be assigned to keep a keen eye on this group and their activities especially with a view to unveiling who truly is behind it... If this is properly done, this country will begin to win the battle against terrorism .

But this is Nigeria, we lack the will power to do anything even when we have all the power and ability to do.

Onechancearmy:
The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has asked the federal government to withdraw the N100 note from circulation over what it described as “the removal of the Arabic Ajami sign from the currency by the administration of former president of Goodluck Jonathan in 2014.

In a statement released on Tuesday by the Director of MURIC, Prof Ishaq Akintola, the group condemned the action of the former president, saying that the removal of the sign was a major failure of his administration.







While describing the new note released by the Jonathans administration in 2014 as inferior, MURIC called for the reinstatement of the Arabic Ajami and the withdrawal of the N100 and N200 notes printed during Jonathan’s regime

The statement read, “The administration of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan officially issued the N100 commemorative centenary banknote on 19th December 2014. A major feature of that banknote was the removal of Arabic Ajami.


“Nigerians consider Jonathan’s N100 note inferior to others printed earlier. It is of very low quality. It tears easily. It lacks second-hand value. It grows soft and fragile with time, thereby making it difficult to handle or fold in people’s pockets or wallets. It has therefore failed as a veritable means of exchange. Placed side by side with the old N100 note which still has the Arabic Ajami inscription and which is still in circulation, Jonathan’s N100 shrinks into oblivion.

“The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) is constrained to affirm that Jonathan’s N100 note is a fiscal embarrassment, a huge disappointment and a colossal waste of the nation’s scarce resources. Three and a half years on, Jonathan’s N100 note has qualified for the worst banknote ever printed in Nigeria. It is a national disgrace. This banknote should be withdrawn from circulation.

“It is not too difficult to guess what went wrong. Jonathan was blinded by his anti-Arabic sentiment that he ignored quality control measures. His only concern was to implement the hate agenda of a few anti-Muslim elements who are bent on eliminating all vestiges of Islam from the Nigerian environment.

“It was not the first time this would happen. Arabic inscriptions which have always been on Nigerian currency since independence were unceremoniously removed in 2005 from N5, N10, N20 and N50 denominations during the reign of Olusegun Obasanjo. It must be noted that there has been surreptitious pressure from the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) for the removal of Arabic from the naira.

“But Nigerians need to know that this move was calculated to hurt the Muslim population and may end up as a disservice to the nation. The average Northerner cannot read any other script except in Arabic Ajami and anyone who wants to communicate with him effectively must use the Ajami, not even writings in the Hausa language can help in this matter. Millions of Northerners have therefore been marginalized by removing the Arabic Ajami from Jonathan’s poor quality N100 note and Obasanjo’s N5, N10, N20 and N50 denominations.

“The removal of Arabic Ajami is being interpreted as an attempt to discourage the learning and use of Arabic language which is the language of the Glorious Qur’an. It is a sensitive religious matter. Nobody can do this in Nigeria and expect the Muslims to organize a carnival for him. But as usual, our leaders manifest the noun ‘deaf’ and the verb ‘to ignore’.

“MURIC complained in 2005 when Obasanjo removed Arabic Ajami from new naira notes. The fact that Jonathan repeated the same thing has raised concern among Muslims. Why does Arabic always become the victim any time a Christian becomes president? It means that there is a conspiracy to gradually and tactically eliminate Arabic Ajami. It is only logical to expect the removal of Arabic from other notes when another Christian becomes president.

“When shall we three meet again? In thunder, lightning and rain?’ When will these conspirators descend on the remaining notes which still has Arabic Ajami on them: N100, N200, N500 and N1,000? Should we expect the removal of Arabic Ajami from these remaining denominations when another Christian becomes president? Is it ‘when the hullybully is done and gone?’ Or is it ‘when the battle is lost and won?’ It looks very much like an agendum continuum.

“Currencies worldwide are designed to suit each nation’s culture and history. Incidentally, Nigeria is a multireligious entity. In this case, therefore, our cultural and religious homogeneity should be the criteria, particularly when designing our banknotes, our stamps, etc.

“But these two Christian presidents (Obasanjo and Jonathan) failed in this onerous task. They retained the English letters, which symbolize Christianity and removed the Arabic Ajami which stands for Islam. It is simply bad leadership. They allowed sectional interests to override their avowed neutrality. What else is ethnic cleansing? We are all taxpayers and to that extent we all deserve representation.

“For the avoidance of doubt, we as Muslims are ready and willing to peacefully coexist with our Christian neighbors, but on equal terms. It must be with the proviso: ‘live and let live’. No more, no less. We believe that the religion of the president is of little consequence so long as he is fair to all. We will always address issues, not primordial sentiments and, by the way, our Arabic is very dear to us. It is tangential, not peripheral.

“In conclusion, MURIC demands the withdrawal of Jonathan’s N100 note from circulation and the reinstatement of Arabic Ajami on N200, N500, and N1,000 denominations. We affirm that Jonathan’s N100 note was a scam. We, therefore, call for a probe. We warn against any attempt by any future Nigerian leader to remove Arabic Ajami from the few remaining denominations. We will not hesitate to deploy every constitutional means at our disposal to stop such an attempt now or in future.”

This is one of the reasons Nigeria has not made any headway:-(tribal and religious sentiments). See the kind of mentality somebody is still having in this 21st century, and many people will still congratulate and celebrate him. And we are aspiring to be a great nation. I think we are still in a trance.

I have no problems with whether there's Arabic inscription on the #100 note or not.... last time I checked, that won't increase its value.... The problem however is that the note is of very low quality; very soft as if macerated... looks very substandard.... #wewantquality100nairanote

And yet, muric did not see that to address, instead it's some inconsequential Arabic inscriptions. I give up! angry




Don't be carried away by how it looks, its all part of the agenda, what you should reason out is why the said note has not been printed for sometime now, all there is in circulation is old printed notes of about two years or so..

Muslims in Nigeria should learn to be tolerant of the Christianity and Christian leaders decision while in power. Muslims in Nigeria always steer-up sentiments of hate for other religions. What or why are they against the #100 note without the arabic symbol to be withdrawn from circulation? Or is it part of their Islamization agenda or petty hatred for GEJ? May God help this Nation
