@all

Let me first start by deconstructing your logic and proving to you that this "arabic" on the naira is something that you should keep quiet about, why the fuss in the first place.
look,
1. the weekend in nigeria is saturday and sunday
2. sunday is the holy day for christians and their day of worship
3. this was inherited or borrowed from the british colonialists who were christians and successfully converted a large portion of people to christianity
4. in the middle east where there are predominantly muslim populations, thursdays and fridays are the weekend to enable muslims prepare for our holy day of friday.
5. nigeria has a majority muslim population, yet the weekend does not reflect the majority religion and their day of worship unlike countries like egypt who have majority muslim population with a substantial christian population where the weekend is still thursday and friday.
6. in lebanon where there is a 50-50 ratio between the muslim and christian populations, the weekends are fridays and sundays unlike nigeria where the weekend is saturday and sunday albeit nigeria's muslim majority
7.do you see or hear any muslims complaining? that the national weekend is favorable to one religion, why do i have to go to work on my holy day while  the christian gets to relax, is that fair?
8. this thing about arabic on the naira, if you give an arab 10 naira, he wont understand the arabic inscription on it because it is not in his language, hausas have been using arabic alphabets as a means of writing, communication and literacy for centuries, way before colonialists set foot in nigeria and converted our sourthern and some northern brothers to christianity, look up "ajami" this is hausa language in arabic borrowed alphabets, is there anything wrong in placing a symbol or northern culture  and literacy on the naira? are northerners not equally nigerians?

excellent, you idiot gave us two examples of countries in the middle east.
how does that concern us?
and how dare you refer to 80% uneducated fanatics as muslims ?

by the way, why did you people took up weapons when Biafra wanted to leave you alone to keep your thursdays holy ?

I dont know what your father told you about Nigerian Population but Niger republic is not among us

Seun:
I don't care about the arabic.  I don't think anyone does.

[color=Black]Chelsea, on the other hand,did not lose any big stars but made an intelligent buy in the person of Russian midfielder Zhirkov, but sacked their manager which is their new style , with new manager Carlo Ancelotti,[/color]



Point of correction,we dont sack coaches.
Our last coach left for russia, he had
a contract with chelsea which lasted
after which he left, so poster mind the
way u talk about chelsea.Thanks

Actual dialogue of a former Microsoft Customer Support employee.
(Now I know why they record these conversations!):

Operator: "Ridge Hall, computer assistance; may I help you?"
Caller: "Yes, well, I'm having trouble with Microsoft Word."
Operator: "What sort of trouble??"
Caller: "Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went away."
Operator: "Went away?"
Caller: "They disappeared."
Operator: "Hmm. So what does your screen look like now?"
Caller: "Nothing."
Operator: "Nothing??"
Caller: "It's blank; it won't accept anything when I type."
Operator: "Are you still in Ms Word, or did you get out??"
Caller: "How do I tell?"
Operator: "Can you see the 'C: prompt' on the screen??"
Caller: "What's a sea-prompt?"
Operator: "Never mind, can you move your cursor around the screen?"
Caller: "There isn't any cursor; I told you, it won't accept anything I type."
Operator: "Does your monitor have a power indicator??"
Caller: "What's a monitor?"
Operator: "It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have a little light that tells you when it's on??"
Caller: "I don't know."
Operator: "Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find where the power cord goes into it. Can you see that??"
Caller: "Yes, I think so."
Operator: "Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's plugged into the wall.
Caller: "Yes, it is."
Operator: "When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one??"
Caller: "No."
Operator: "Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable."
Caller: "Okay, here it is."
Operator: "Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of your computer."
Caller: "I can't reach."
Operator: "OK. Well, can you see if it is??"
Caller: "No."
Operator: "Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean way over??"
Caller: "Well, it's not because I don't have the right angle -- it's because it's dark."
Operator: "Dark??"
Caller: "Yes - the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window."
Operator: "Well, turn on the office light then."
Caller: "I can't."
Operator: "No? Why not??"
Caller: "Because there's a power failure."
Operator: "A power , A power failure? Aha. Okay, we've got it licked now. Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff that your computer came in??"
Caller: "Well, yes, I keep them in the closet."
Operator: "Good. Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to the store you bought it from."
Caller: "Really? Is it that bad?"
Operator: "Yes, I'm afraid it is."
Caller: "Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them??"
Operator: "Tell them you're too stupid to own a computer!!!"

we want more sammie

another style of threads now are the usernames

simply the most popular discussion board in Nigeria

followed by :::::

adetunrayo:
Seun show face now, ur members are missing u.

ladies always do that, some change negatively while some cxhange^pos

reason ; they gained more grounds and rights after wedding

they are people who obey the below rule.

DONT DO ANYTHING THAT WILL ANNOY THE ADMIN

useless post

is this all you can come up with?

and you are always quick to condemn other posts

anuofia

i need examples of things that have not been done on the net so i can start

dont single out nigeria;

someone started a forum and bans you everytime you say your mind or every time you dont support him

what do you do , especially if you are addicted to his forum?
i am not surprised at all about all the forums springing up here and there.
atleast they are doing something

meanwhile @joscity guy
i know your forum, it discusses the same thing with nairaland and .com?

why ? or are you just calling for useless attention?
let them open up forums here and there , join those you want and leave others

there was yahoo mail; lycos; aol; msn beforre google shows up with gmail

netwhizmx:
There's this nagging issue dats been poppin' in my mind for a while now regarding this forum and that is the fact that, when u click on external links that is posted on nairaland, it opens up on the same page, taking u out of the nairaland forum, i think this is not good enough for a forum as big as this. Seun, take note, work on d forum, so when u click on external links not related to the forum, it opens it up in a new page or something, u dont wanna lose traffic to some other ext. links posted, even though u get all this traffic, u should still protect it,  just felt i should air this out,  Wacha think guys!

what makes you think that after many years of managing nairaland;
seun doesnt know about this issue?
