You are a bastard bigot and a disappointment to literacy!
Who told you that the inscription on the Naira is Islam? Who even told you that was Arabic text?
For avoidance of doubt and for the sake of those who do not know and cares to know, the text is an Hausa words but only written in Arabic alphabets for those who do not read or write English. It is just like writing 'mèta' which means 3 in Yoruba language using English alphabets.
It is very pathetic if you refer to that as Islam. I will then ask you whether the non- Muslim Arabs that abounds across Lebanon, Palestine, Iraq etc.are now Muslims thanks to your fanatical postulation?
you are a useless low life for insulting others opinion, is Arabic your language?

Nigeria is a Secular state. No agency or institution of Govt should promote one religion over another.

For the new Naira Notes, The CBN has 2 choices.

A) Remove the Arabic inscriptions on all Nigerian currency. OR
B) Leave the Arabic and add Christian inscriptions on the new notes.

We either remove religion completely or balance the currency with Christian inscriptions. Simple as ABC. Nigerian Christians aren't inferior. Remove all Arabic or add Christian inscriptions too.

Godwin Emefiele has a constitutional and a Religious duty to choose One option from the two above.

Godwin Emefiele must not be a coward. Pls Emefiele must see to this, stamp his feet down and Do It.

It's unfortunate that you conflate Arabic script with Islam.

FYI, before the British gave us English language, there was a system already in place, for reading and writing in Northern Nigeria, it was Arabic.

Most people in the North that you call illiterate can read an write in Arabic. Therefore the purpose of the Arabic script on the Naira is for those who are illiterate in English but Literate in Arabic, so that they can understand.

Word of advice, Religion is for the masses, your leaders don't even care about it, let alone you.

Know this and know peace.

Shalom!

It is obvious that we are not meant to be together when some Islamic extremists are bent on retaining Arabic inscription on our naira and we call this country a secular state....who are we deceiving...

It wouldn't be long till someone will tell us Arabic is now our official language and Islam is our religion...it was done in Sudan and can be repeated in Nigeria...

And some Mofo church leaders are still fighting for superiority... Instead to focus on the reality that is staring at us

That's why I pity the Hausas because they have been silenced forever.

You hardly see an Hausa politician in Nigeria today. Imagine a tribe that feeds the over 200 million person's with their agricultural produce, very hardworking and nice individuals who are very smart on craft.

Infact history has it that the Hausa man was the first to make guns in old civilization. See how they gradually exterminated that tribe.

Imagine to the extent of replacing their language with Arabic inscription

In your mind, all Christians go the Holy Mary route? No.

English is given to us by a Christian nation.
Arabic is given to us by a Muslim nation.

In the note, there is English (Christianity) and there is Arabic (Islam).

If the French have influence in Nigeria, French will be added too.

Everything I wrote above in English can also be written in Arabic and it will be understood by those who speak it just the same way you understand my English.

If Arabic, an Islamic language, should be removed, English, a Christian language, should also be removed. They should use only the 3 most popular languages in Nigeria only — which is already in some of the notes.

The only bad thing is if they write something like: "Mohammed is the greatest" in Arabic on the note, but you can write "God is great" on the note with either English or Arabic.

Let's not drag insignificant things. Arabic is a language for Muslims just the same way English is a language for Christians. In fact, Christians have dominated the world by forcing every nation to speak English.

Lots of Arab nations speak English today, but lots of Christian nations don't speak Arabic.

What I'm trying to say is, CBN is trying to please everyone and it's good. Let's not be too religious about it.

There is Igbo, Yoruba, and Hausa on some notes, but we, the Niger Deltans, are not crying for not adding our local languages.

Are we not part of Nigeria? In fact, don't you know we are the one feeding the nation with our natural resources?

If we, the mother of Nigeria, isn't crying, let our children wipe their tears.

The end.

Nigeria was never a circular country because it was colonised by a Christian country and injected with the way and manner of the christian faith.
The therein became comfortable with colonial impositions and along the line think this is how things are done all over the world and therefore perceived it to be circular norm.
From Nigerian holidays to style of governance to calendar and much more are destined for the christian faith while neglecting all other religious beliefs.
Unless Nigerians seat down and write down there own constitutions that will drive governance and society accordingly to their taste they will never have a circular country. Besides the Arabic inscriptions on the naira has nothing to do with religion.

Let always learn to fight for our right rather than claiming to leave it for God

How will whatever is written on the Naira help the economy?

Just answer first. What is Nigeria's official religion. I'll keep asking you the same question until you answer. Traditional, Christianity, Islam, or what?

Just tell me our official religion. If you choose traditional worship, then both English and Arabic should be removed. If you choose Christianity, then Arabic should be removed. If you choose Islam, then English should be removed. If you choose all, then English, Arabic, Igbo, Yoruba, and Hausa should be there and yes, these 5 languages are already there.

I think Christians should learn to ignore things that do not hurt them or impose some burden on them. Their nagging is too much. I don't know what they would have done if Friday is declared a work free day as Saturdays and Sundays are done for them. The whole school and government holidays system is based on the convenience of the Christians.

Muslims will never allow it because infidels will touch the Money and the Money will be entering in to some prohibited places like toilet , brothel, and many more.
