You can also find the arabic writings on our currency too. A certain lawyer once drag the federal government to court about this matter. Nigeria is a secular state, this is a subtle promotion of islam. Again Arabic is not a spoken language in any trybe of Nigeria 11 Likes |

HRHQueenPhil:That we adopt to learn and speak the language as a brigde to the other continents. And especially to take the advantage of the fact that Nigeria is surrounded by french speaking countries.. yet there is no sense in promoting arab through our coat and currency as a national identity 7 Likes |

HRHQueenPhil:No sir/ma. The expression of arabic is only contained in islam, a religion. This is not same as an indigenous language wildly spoken. Again muslims in Nigeria dont speak arab to one another but only recite it solely in worship. 9 Likes |

tartar9:U again...! Every demographic data...bla bla bla ! Is demographic data same as religious dichotomy data? SS 99% Christians SE 100% Christians SW 70% Christians NC 70% Christians NW 30% Christians NE 42% Christians So have you added this "demographic data" too? Muslims are loud and violent minority who uses any political advantage to advance the course of strictly Muslim domination like Buhari is doing now.

TooMuchStuff:Aren't u ashamed of what u posted as statistic over there, it's obvious you're bias, very obvious. SW 70%christian, I laff. Muslims are even slightly more than Christians in SW or equal. And look at ur NC, you're just disgracing yourself, aw can NC be 70% Christians where Kwara , kogi and abuja dey. look at ur SS again, 99%, u mean freaking 99%? abeg delete am. And look at how u exposed yourself, NW is 30% Christian and SS is 99%, lol.. if SS is 99%, then NW is also 99%. Also how can u say NE is 42% Christian, haba. You said Muslims are just politically violence and loud, so Oyo that's a Muslim major has a Christian Governor, should that be so if we should go by ur analysis, Look at Ogun too. And u said Christians lead with justice and fairness, my friend , go back and sleep, so Orji Uzor Kalu, Ikpeazu, Jonathan, Obasanjo, are all Muslims abi. 12 Likes 1 Share |

Yahksbiz:It was made by the British during the pre-colonization era. The Arabic inscription means "victory from God" And moreover Arabic is just a language, even Arab Christians in Lebanon and jews in israel use Arabic to worship. Wait, would u make a fuss if it was Japanese/Chinese that was written on it and think that they want to budhalise Nigerians 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: Why Is Arabic On Most Nigeria Symbols by OyigboUpdate: 11:44pm On Oct 26, 2020 |
Notasyouthink: Like I said if I am allowed to worship what I want I am not mad at it. But in Biafra you're not allowed to worship anything except the Judaism and this has chased alot of people. Like the Nairalander who also commented on that thread that religion chased him away. Your Kanu religion shouldn't be forced on anyone. And the problem is that you guys never correct your leader. |

Balismatic:And why should one idiot come and imposed English language on us too? Northerners were using Arabic letters (Ajami) to write centuries before Lord Lugard come and give us nonsense colonial language. Which kind of hypocritical secular state do u mean? We accepted everything from u and abandon ours for peace sake now u're telling us secular state, they gave u religion in English and make our country English speaking and u think we're dumb to ignore it?
