Coronabirus:All these are just speculations. The people in government circle know that why they are scared to allow personal Identity System work. Until NIGERIA is restructure d the northerners in power will not let this country has empirical data because of political gains. Hence there is no figure that is credible from Nigeria sources. This is why international community rely on projection of 1953 census, which is at its best not empirical. But one fact remains Islam mostly spread in Nigeria by natural means while Christianity spreads by both natural and convertion means. This is why the north has opposed to crusade of world renowned evangelists. |

Balismatic:Why you people are very ignorant about history? 500years before Usman Danfodio was born there was Islam in Nigeria. I didn't say North was using Arabic, North was using Arabic letters to communicate in their native languages. Can u tell me which state uses English as their native language? 1 Like |

Re: Why Is Arabic On Most Nigeria Symbols by Balismatic(m): 11:44am On Oct 27, 2020 |
Coronabirus:Going by your submission, if the north were using ARABIC letters in their native language, that means we ought to have ARABIC speaking native and indegins of the northern Nigeria such as igbo,yoruba and hausa. Now, why is HAUSA language wildly spoken in the north instead of ARABIC?. i tell you sir, English is not the religious languge of christians. We speak English by colonialism. Greek,latin and Aramic are original languages of the christian, by translation we speak curtesy of colonialism. That means, we worship God in our native languages. The Bible is translated to all native languages in the world. Now Arabic is imposed on islamic religion. |
Re: Why Is Arabic On Most Nigeria Symbols by Balismatic(m): 11:54am On Oct 27, 2020 |
FriendNG:Good one, ENGLISH and ARAB are borrowed languages. it is not a credit to christianity that we speak English in Nigeria but by colonialism and not by religious line |

Balismatic: But they originally write Hausa using Arabic alphabet (Ajami). Even when the colonialist came the Hausa can read and write Hausa using Arabic alphabets. |

Balismatic:That's why foul is always in ur talk because u say what u don't know. Using Arabic letters to write is different from speaking Arabic. Nobody imposed Arabic or Islam on Northerners, the religion was brought by traders many centuries. Arabic letters were used for correspondence in native language. Those years Kanuri, Hausa, Fulani used the same Arabic letters in their native languages which can be read by all the tribes but can't be understood by non native speakers. 1 Like |
