Oh Nice... Would love to see it in action when mass-produced..

See people complaining and bringing in religious sentiments about languages that would add values to them and make them more employable outside of the border of Nigeria.

If i could turn back the hands of time, i would pay more attention to my French teachers and learn other languages like Arabic, Spanish and Chinese (Mandarin or Cantonese) early.. Learning all of these combined with work is pretty taxing..

Well I think some comments here show that having a good mastery of English Language does not make one intelligent contrary to our general belief. Let's think outside the box on this issue shall we? Arabic as a language is the different from the study of Islam. Even though Arabic is the language of Islam there are millions of native Arabic speakers who are non-muslims. In Africa, after English and French, Arabic is the third most popular foreign language recognized by the African Union so if English as our official language is made compulsory and we are given a choice of learning French or Arabic it is to our advantage dear. Have you ever tried to apply for a UN or some other intergovernmental organizations jobs before? If you have then you will agree with me that your ability to speak another foreign language plus English gives you an edge! If as a bigot you can't learn Arabic try French and leave others to learn Arabic. No one is Islamizing a country by introducing Arabic study which totally differs from Islamic studies.

I was stranded in a French speaking country and i could not parle myself out of ordering water...i came home and took my French learning seriously.

Also, i am eyeing some UN jobs and so its in my interest to learn more languages as possible..

Arabic is a Language and not Islamic. English is a Language and not Christianity inclined. French is a Language and not Catholic inclined. I am a Christian and I will not support confusion.

Thank you.. Abeg help me tell them...Arabic is on my list of languages to learn.. Learning French & Arabic together currently..

The problem is not in the merging of subjects into civil and national values. schools can determine which religion to teach in place of the other.

The problem lies with the seventh subject. Either Arabic or French. Now the question is why Arabic? Why not any other foreign language.

There are more important languages than Arabic which as far as I'm concerned is not different from Islam.

Students will be left with no option than to sturdy Arabic in place of French because of the limited number of French teachers across the country as compared to Arabic that every Muslim can teach.

The solution is, if you must bring in Arabic, then increase the number of optional languages to balance the odd. It won't be wrong bringing in Hebrew, Greek or Latin to correspond the slide.

Learning Arabic is not a bad idea. Its also a language of Commerce.. I am a Christian and learning Arabic (work related) and it doesnt compromise my values as a Christian..

Arabic as a language had always been way before Christianity and Islam...

You are a fool. That woman had contributed to sports in Nigeria way more than your entire miserable life...

COOLDK:
It is all about the guts bro. Some drivers slow pace are freaky annoying when you are stuck behind them.

Especially when they are on a designated fast lane.. I do feel like coming down to beat someone.

Tolexander:
So Davido and Wizkid don turn Nigerian version of Ronaldo and Messi!

Make dem stop arresting. Just shoot them and avoid wasting tax-payers money on prosecuting these animals..

I WILL ADVICE THE CONTRACTOR TO SEALED OFF THE ROAD FROM FGGC, AKENFA INTER EXCHANGE TO UNICEM AND THE GIANT PETROL STATION WITH TRUCKS AND ROCKS. TRENCHES: ETC.

HIRED MARIAN AND UGEP BOYS TO MANNED THE BLOCKADE.
CALL IN THE PRESS, BOTH LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL. THE DEAFEN GOVT WILL LEARNED TO LISTEN UP.

THE OBSTRUCTION WILL AFFECT MANY BUSINESSES. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO GET ATTENTION. AFTER ALL FED DOES NOT OBEY COURT ORDERS.
REMEMBER TO THANK ME. GOODLUCK

Sadly! The road is owned by the state govt not the Federal (I read that the proj was initiated by the past gov of the state). So the gov should pay up

dasauce:
The question now is.....who will inherit his Billions??

Government! He will forfeit all...Am sure they have already frozen his accounts.

Why are some people this wicked? The state govt should pls pay the contractor his due...

QueenOfNepal:
The budget has been passrd so let's see if the contractor will be paid

It is not a federal project... The state govt should pay up!

Is that not conflict of interest?

Semper247:
Ur written English just exposed how half educated you are....

You shouldn't talk when u have no sensible thing to contribute. So you want him released very soon shey? Why not hire a lawyer for him or stage a protest for his release. "don't he have a lawyer" ko, don't them has a lawyer ni.... Olodo

Skip her English, the dude has the right to a legal representation and he is talking too much without a lawyer...

whirlwind7:
My thoughts exactly.
Very likely he wasn't even read his miranda rights by the arresting cops, and in all the excitement, he would have forgotten that he has the right to a legal representative.

Well, by the time the police and the courts finish dealing with him, he wouldn't care much for a lawyer

Typical Nigerians for you. Most of them don't learn to lawyer up until it is too late...

On a second thought, he might be in the mood to rope everyone in..

Sylverly:
His name is onuoha okeigwe from abia state. He achieved a gold honour and Intern of the quarter as a non graduating student, meeting all the graduation requirements, which is rare as the award is mostly achieved by graduating students at LIFE WEST CHIROPRACTIC, CALIFORNIA. USA.

really commendable.

Good one. Congrats bro!

massinola:

Happy birthday Mrs Ngozi...

PLEASE, no refugee in Yorubaland. Go to IDP camp in East.

Stupid comment!

Maduawuchukwu:
Baba no think am o. Politicians don set since. It's on Nairaland people dey fight directionless ethnic battles. South-east and south-south don allign. They will vote for any candidate PDP chooses. South-west is the unsure region.

South-West is what they call undecided... and can swing the votes either ways. Also, they will align based on the deals they can get for the region and cronies.
The politician been fielded by PDP must be strong enough to snatch most of the states in SW and savvy enough to offer deals that will swing the SW states.

Maduawuchukwu:
Welcome back bro! It's time for allignment not all these Afonja, Igbo rubbish.

My thoughts too.. Politicians are not making alignments for 2019, especially the southern ones (They are still doing West vs East)
