So says the illiterate.

shame on you. You are a disgrace to literates for not being able to counter an illiterate.

newbornmacho:
but even you must see that it disadvantages Christians. The Christian is only taught his religion in a half baked mixture with civics and whatever, while Islam is additionally taught in Arabic studies which to all practical intents and purposes is Islamic religious knowledge.
Also people get the added advantage that they can get jobs twice as often as Christians since Arabic would be a separate employable course work , added to IRK. Then the multiplier effect from employment opportunities positive feedback could forcefully mainstream Arabic/irk. This is a tactical Islamic evangelistic push that will further marginalize the northern Christian minorities, and push Nigeria closer to Muslim majority status.
Wicked!!! These Muslims and their plans.

Bla bla bla...

For you information, Arabic as a language has no elements of Islam attached to it. go and research about that. It's just like saying People should not study Yoruba because ogun is a Yoruba god. What was done to CRS was also done to IRS. same with the science subjects. Your protests is just a shameless display of silly religious bigotry. So just because Islam uses Arabic nobody can use it again. Go and think of another propaganda for this one has failed!

coptic:
That's your problem, really.

Whether it stays or goes, it won't apply to my state. So that's none of my business. I only tried to make you see why the entire thing has religious connotations.

I asked the relevance of Arabic in today's academic and work space. Instead, you gave me history. What's to counter there?

Plateau will automatically become our colony once this country disintegrates so stop deceiving yourself. I'm not surprised that you think history or Arabic itself is irrelevant. what else should be expected from a pro-beerfraud?

coptic:
Is that all the defence you can conjure up? That trash up there? Smh.

why didnt you counter the trash? Arabic is here to stay. You can follow your friends to beerfraud if you are unhappy about that

Nonaira1:
We are gladly doing it or your deep in the sand head haven't been reading of Igbos living that same North since your quit notice.

IPOB since even thanked you pigs for it and even umuzurike that went making a fool of himself was attacked severally by all igbo groups. Wtf does that tell you? We are gladly leaving your shithole.

While I'm at it, hope you packing that your zoo Niggerian bags out of Asaba and neighboring towns. I read that SS groups have equally given una till Oct 1st to pack your shits and leave SS. Albeit we weren't among the people that signed that threat, let you know that We equally support the hell out of their threat. Oct 1st, let there not be one single Afonja or Aboki anywhere in Aniomaland.

So you mean to compare the benefits of studies in Arab institutions that are not different from Nigeria's due to religious sentiments, with what, French unis renowned for science and technology?

Why must he stress on Arabic. If you wanted a language for opportunities and growth, Arabic won't rank in the first 20. What remarkable feats have the Arab unis achieved?

Why not German, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean?

Religion has most of you running mad, but you don't know it.

poo as usual. If you want to go by that I hope you are aware that Arabians were once the leading scientists in the world? and why are you talking as if Arabic is going to replace French? For you to say that Arabian universities are in the same league with those of Nigeria shows how blind you are. Arabic is a part of our history and whether you like it or not, your foolish religious bigotry will not kill the dreams of others. Your brothers friends are still being arrested for doing illegal businesses in the Middle East and North Africa and you are here typing rubbish. If you don't want Arabic then leave it alone but you cannot deprive others of their rights. You can kill yourself if you don't want that

monex:
not so simple unless you want chaos and dystopia

There would only be a massacre. Nothing like chaos

coptic:
Who is the jaki here?

I don't join issues with unruly people. Does your head hurt?

French is the second most widely learned foreign language after English. You think all those people don't know why?

Speaking French opens up study opportunities at eminent French unis and business schools, not to mention job opportunities.

How much of those does the Arabic offer?

Like it or not, Arabic, as studied by the Arewa masses, is solely for religious reasons.

Whoever wants to learn Arabic should go to the islamiyya.

Unfortunately, we live amongst unreasonable people.

And Arabic is the most widely spoken language in Africa! learning Arabic also gives the same advantages that you just mentioned and please stop making it as if French is going to be cancelled out in favour of Arabic so what's wrong with benefiting from both? just take a #200 note and tell any Hausa man to read the Arabic text on it for you. You will hear " naira dari biyu" instead of Arabic words. Arabic is part of our his history. Like I said, if you don't want Arabic please dont study it but you cannot use your silly, senseless religious bigotry to stop people that want to learn to learn.

rainylad:
..Oga the fight has left you tey tey...just drink water with your tail between your legs and add more names to the 19 or so your brothers have already compiled for 2019 Presidency..to rule 'One Nigeria'..lmao.

By the cowards don't leave by 2019 then be rest assured that we, the Yorubas and the minority tribes will keep ruling you for many centuries to come. we will make sure that you never taste the seat of presidency so it's better you use this chance that we have given you

newbornmacho:
Lol! So you are confirming that una don change mouth. OK na.
Who is talking about fighting you in the north or anywhere else Guy , you don't know how people like me roll.

what's wrong with giving fools a second chance after their leaders have come to beg? Haven't you noticed that ipoop has changed its tactics since the declaration from "we will burn down the zoo" to "we only want a peaceful referend"? The fear of the North is the beginning of wisdom.

BeardedMeat:
I have told the yorrobber ass licker, more names will be added to that list soon.

mynd44 hope you slept well yesterday. Good morning sir

newbornmacho:
October 1 is almost here. If you don't show that action... You're not a Muslim. I dare you. No Igbo is leaving until the right things are done. Divide the godamn country, and you won't see us here. The government should quickly conduct the referendum and give us our own state , and then we go. Even your semi literate youth are now changing tone, and dropping the threats and deadlines. For me, if you no show that your action no be man you be.

the deadlines were only dropped after your cowardly leaders and is in banjo had come to the north to beg on your behalf. I bet you if not for that, we would have chased you away. if you think the igbos can fight the northerners in their land then something must be wrong with you.

coptic:
And what has Nigeria to do with Arabic?

I just told you how majority of Northerners used to read and write in Arabic and it will be forever a part of our history. Learning Arabic can give Nigerians bigger opportunities in Arabian countries. what do we have to do with French?

NairalandHowTo:
They are ok with french but they hate Arabic though they like 2 go Arab countries and study and even smuggle drugs.

don't mind those hypocrites. I'm not surprised that one of them is asking for Chinese language. so that they will continue their evil works in Asia.

coptic:
You know Nigerians are very sensitive people when it comes to religion and ethnicity.

Don't blame them for being worked up over the issue.

The move to me is totally uncalled for. Arabic has been taught in the north for years. I don't see the need to change that.

This education minister is one controversial man. Refer to seunmsg's comment for my reservations on this.

come on stop disgracing yourself. Tell me, what has been changed? is anybody being forced to study Arabic? You are only against it because it's the language of Islam. If you don't want to study it nobody is forcing forcing you but allow other Nigerians that want to learn Arabic to go and learn! jaki Kawai!

LionDeLeo:
Arrant nonsense not different from the usual recycled trash.

What have you been looking for all these years?

You wanted to leave but the country (especially the north) keeps holding you back and a blank cheque has just been handed over to you by the north, to fill it is now a problem, wtf.

In all these years you have been agitating, which of your representatives at any level of govt did you pressurise that it is Arewa, which is tired of your unending grumbling, threats and empty chest beating, that should now champion ur cause for you?

The arewas simply made it known to you that they are not holding you back for any gaddem rubbish, why not key into this declaration and quickly fast track the actualisation of your dream rather than now singing a different song that Arewa should now take the responsibility of pushing for your historic mission?

With reference to editing, if your allusion is on my response to APCsupporter, you must be very confused to think I chickened out. The "edited" you saw in the post you just quoted is simply from "properly" to "heavily" as advised, which is even more harsh.

However, if it is about the Arewa declaration, I think you should have come of age to realise that Arewa is not a lily-livered group.

Something must be wrong with that guy. His case is particularly worse

coptic:
And what has Nigeria to do with Arabic?

The fools are accusing the government of trying to Islamise Nigeria because of Arabic. what is Nigeria doing with French? At least Northerners used Arabic to read and write long before the whites came

franudi:
Are we black people cursed? Britain just voted to leave european union and it was done peacefully. Why is it that Biafrans leaving Nigeria is about to cause civil war twice? The arewas are giving Igbos quit notice to leave their land, what method of separation is that? Then if biafrans should leave arewa land,does it mean that they have gotten Biafra?

Is European Union a country? NO

did Britain insult the members of eu? NO

Duru1:
The fact that Niger-Area gained independence in 1960 did not automatically required all Nigerians in British Empire to relocate to Nigeria. Everyday exposes the imbedded animalistic idiocy only inherent among most Nigerians. One thing that is very sure remains that Biarfra actualization has been accelerated.

was there hatred and bad blood between the two countries? Just like the way we chased Ghanaians away a few decades ago, we will send you away and nothing will happen. There is no international law that dictates on how a country must accept everyone.

ChimaAdeoye:
Another lazy parasite looking for somebody's property to annex.

Igbo youths should get ready to defend their properties from these

so you think they can fight people in their own land? stop beating your chest. You are supposed to be a lady

monex:
the people you talk about still have their nigerian passports and are yet to renounce their nigerian citizenship. A referendum first and then they accept biafran citizenship and then you talk about foreigner tax.

asking them to leave their properties and businesses for you to take over is wrong.

You think the illiterate abokiii and afonja government will let them renounce their citizenship? stop dreaming bro. it's automatically a mass deportation once biafra is actualised

LionDeLeo:
What's this one saying?

You want to leave the zoo, but after leaving, you will physically remain, which kind logic be dat? So the agitation has been about spiritual "leaving" all along?

Are you confused?

So, you mean you will be a biaflan and be competing for business and residential spaces with Nigerians without being PROPERLY taxed as a foreigner? (Which is even subject to approval by Nigeria govt).

Pls in which obodo is this done?

You should have made it clearer to him by using "heavily" instead of "properly"

They think they can insult us and still retain their jobs and businesses on our lands

QueenOfNepal:
In your dreams

It's already more popular than English in Africa already. You have not seen anything yet

QueenOfNepal:
I won't give up emancipating your northern brethren from religious yoke

good. keep wasting your energy. Arabic is here to stay.

Duru1:
You commanded someone to "shut up" in your previous post yet you never remembered to call on your kinsmen to ban you. Now that you were told th simple fact of the nature, you are calling on your kinsmen. This partisan demeanor is one of the reason the decibels for the call for Biafra are very high.

how is that an insult? I'm done exchanging insults with people online. He lied and so I told him to shut up, then countered him.

QueenOfNepal:
Arabic is of no benefit to your kind. Try to understand English very well before you bury yourself in a Language that is of no benefit to you

Many of the words in my language are Arabic. We have been using it to keep records and write letters long before the whites came to spoon-feed you. You should be the one to focus on English. I can proudly speak both English and Arabic. kalbun

You go die.
What type of lies ! How many Catholic, Protestants committed suicide on the order of pastors? you are talking about lunatic self-styled Prophets who are just like your Isis caliphs.


How is dancing Haram ? I rather have a dancing pastor next door than a nuts who thinks killing "infidels " will give him seven virgin women in paradise. You guys failed.

go and make use of Google and stop disgracing yourself. many pastors are being arrested today for asking their members to commit suicide directly or indirectly. Your religion states that it's believers can take poison without dying. What should we say about pastors telling their congregations to drink harmful chemicals? is that suicide? anybody who claims to be a Christian is automatically a Christian as long as I'm concerned.

Dancing is not bad but it makes you look foolish especially the one you do on roads and even gutters. what can be as barbaric as killing a small baby for being a "witch"?

like I said, Islam is the most practised religion in Africa and it will soon conquer the world. go and hang yourself if you don't like that

QueenOfNepal:
You think everything is about Islam.



You need to emancipate yourself from religious slavery

Who is complaining about "islamisation" simply because of a language that is spoken by both Muslims and non-Muslims?

The Ibos are now inviting the so called cowards to help them. okay, o we are ready

QueenOfNepal:
What importance does Arabic studies have over Chinese who are the next economic world power.
