Data is greater than knowledge because once you put up on the board all the information without prejudice you will easily see the patterns. This is the New thinking or computer brain we must possess for the new age! So even though 0 has no value it does when you place 0 behind a 1 or either in front of the 1 it has value.

"As one person told the New Yorker in objection to the centenary naira redesign: ''If you still have English and it is not Christianising, why is the one in Arabic Islamising?" Nigerian Christians will always find away to cry to the media just to fuel their emotion. Their case is like women who would cry and shout at the highest volume and she's the one at fault. |

DamnnNiggarr:that Arabic inscriptions shouldn't have been there in the first place, and I wonder wey elites, professional lawyers are not suing the gvt for such nonsense When we have 200 ethnic groups in Nigeria na one Arab alphabet they inscribed on it, if it was written in housa,Yoruba,Igbo and other ethnic languages no problem as long as it represents diversity. Even English word is not suppose to be there sef Chinese notes and other countries don't use Arabic or English words when they have their languages. Besides, Nig is made up of three religion so why Arabic n besides watin concern money and religion, it should be removed. 1 Like |

ThatFairGuy: The argument in court was that, it violate Nigeria constitution which states English , Yoruba ,Hausa and Igbo as an official language of Nigeria. If by any means that you can read or write from any of those mentioned languages, you are literate. But writing something in Arabic language in our National value just to please some set of Muslim who failed to learn their National Language is clear violation of constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria. 1 Like 1 Share |

King44: Are u saying that Arabic is a religion? We have a long way to go. There's advantage in the combination, Arabic is one of the most widely spoken language in Africa and we transact with our neighbouring countries and beyond. I still don't understand the argument. May be we shud fight for removing English as well. Most of our actions show hatred and lack of knowledge. This is the same reflection of how we cast vote. 1 Like |

Naija is a complex state and leaders shld be deplomatic in dealing with the affairs of the nation. We v all agree that the English language is our lingua franca then let's keep our mode of communication.im that medium.

Emir01:there is a general Hausa language used in the north why can't it be written in that language The English could also be removed to rep the three major tribes or more tribes no big deal. Despite the fact that the Chinese were colonised by the British also India, did you see in English words on their notes. At least if the proper thing is done it would ensure that yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, etc are taught in basic schools It is not proper it must be all inclusive, hausas have their ways of communicating before arabic changing it would make them take general hausa language seriously same goes to others |
