This is highly annoying. I can't just imagine this coming form a lunatic professor. Educated fellow of that matter.
This people will divide this country one day.
Kindly take a look at the available notes in Nigeria. But this is only one coming without an Arabic inscription.

Lately, the symbols on the Naira Note has become more important than the value of the note itself with various religious bodies challenging every sign they see on it.

These are the 2 controversies I've read about:

1) The David Cross: Which one is the David Cross againhuh How does the David Cross affect the value of the Naira? I'm a Christian..I've never ever heard about the David Cross and possibly many other Christians too so I'm surprised the Muslim body had enough time to research about the David cross when there are more important things for them to think about.

2) The Arabic Symbols: In as much as I have little reservations about this particular one, I'll want to ask us Nigerians, how has this affected the value of the Naira? When did you notice the Arabic symbols on the Naira? For me I noticed those Arabic symbols the day I read about it on Nairaland this Month and I just casually checked it. It doesn't mean I'm insensitive to issues concerning my country. It means as far as it has never been a big deal over 10 years now, it never will.

It's a shame Christian religious bodies/leaders were linking the Arabic symbols on the Naira with the Islamization of Nigeria

I'll urge us as Nigerians to DESIST from tribalism and religious bigotry even if our religious and political leaders encourage us to do so because it's going to lead us NO-WHERE as a country.

If we continue like this, there'll become a time where Muslims would prefer voting a "Cow" who is a Muslim than a Sane man who is a Christian and vice versa.

Nigerians, please lets shun bigotry for our own good.
This is the most reasonable comment I have seen on Nairaland in ages. You deserve a national award.

The fact that you do not know something exists does not mean the person who thinks it exists is lying.

And when you tell someone you don't know they are lying without anything to substantiate your claim, it makes you appear rude.

Religious bigotry and sectionalism... This are just some of the reasons why we are yet to get it right in Nigeria. To me, that so called "star of David" looks like the Northern Arewa star inscription. The MURIC group should be more concern with the civil unrest caused by the boko-haram sect rather than dividing Nigerians along religious inclination, after all Nigeria is not a Jewish nor an Arabic colony and if an Arabic inscription must be on any national symbol just for some Northerners to identify them easily then inscriptions from other languages from the middle, east, west and south of Nigeria must be on the national symbols so that people from those regions can identify them easily too. #Team Equity.

No wonder Nigerian profs are of no value when they go out of the four shores of nigeria. Imagin someone who calls himself a prof coming up with stuffs like this. Is this your own research work? When young profs of 30's, 40's and 50's around the globe are coming up with innovative researches that will rule the world of tomorow, you are busy promoting baseless points of no research value. Which university awarded you with prof self?

It's now they find it convenient to respond to issues of marginalisation of Muslims. Is Jonathan the first Christian president that we will ever have? Jonathan just don't how to run a run a country as diverse as Nigeria. #GEJMUSTGO#

SUDDENLY THEY DON'T LIKE STARS ANYMORE:
An Excerpt from an article I found online:

The octagon has two stellations , one being the true star polygon{8/3)and the other being a compound of two squares ) also called the Star of Lakshmi . {8/2) a symbol which figures in Hinduism where it represents Ashtalakshmi the eight forms, or "kinds of wealth", of the goddess Lakshmi. A similar symbol Rub el Hizb is a Muslim symbol found on a number of emblems and flags. You can see that the two overlapping squares is embedded in the 2nd stellation
http://xploreandxpress..com/…/zentangle-challenge-1…
So now tell me. Is it the star they hate or is it something that has to do with Jonathan being involved with a star? Really these guys surprise me.
na wa oooo. Atimes I wonder what ppul like you think with, I guess u think with your testis (EPON) . U are just too dull for my liking

Just as the presidency enlightened muric, you may also wish to know that what you highlighted in the pictures is incomprehensible to any Arab. It is called ajami not Arabic. It is like writing 'haborsheday'. It is useless to an Englishman but a Yorubaman will understand even though written in English.

Ajami served its purpose may be up to late 1960s because many northerners who were not western educated were able to read it and that was why many colonial Nigerian symbols of state carried them e.g. Currencies, frontier forces, Nigerian army,etc but this is 2014 where many northerners are now literate in western education, ajami has outlived its usefulness as a mean of communication but it was never a religious (Islamic) symbol.

This issue have brewing for a long time, a non divisive president will have shut it down with facts..... but no way...... rather he and his foolish team have been fanning the embers of division.... he now find it convenient to respond less than three months to election. It is unacceptable from a president that's elected by Nigerians and not just Christians.
I dunno wch issue u say has been brewing for long but dis #100 note issue is a recent one. And I think MURIC is jst one of dos bodies trying to confuse and distabilize d present govt by bringing up false and insignifcant claims against d govt.

For dos who care to know, d star of david is two triangles inverted...

For the benefit of doubt. Here is the Star of David for those who do not know.

Re: Jonathan Refutes MURIC's Allegation Of Jewish Symbol On N100 Note by Nobody:
omenka:
Thank you very much sister!! When the whole argument about islamic inscriptions on the notes arose I was like "what is the essence of all this nonsense?" I never even noticed the damn things until they started talking about them. I kept asking and wanted to know if the notes had ever been turned down in the course of a transaction over what were written on them. It is such a damn shame we are having this conversation. The only thing this whole episode would promote is widen the religious division and prejudice Jonathan has entrenched in this nation. I feel so sad for us honestly. I don't see these wounds healing anytime soon.
I will like to correct you again on this wrong impression you have about Jonathan. He never tried to cause a religious divide in this nation. It is actually his supporters who have been championing it, and they started it when it became obvious that the northern muslims were all out to discredit him and his administration. All the polarization we have been witnessing are attempts by southerners to defend their own (GEJ).

Apart from treating corruption cases with kid gloves, GEJ has done better than most of his predecessors. He is personally less corrupt than many that have gone ahead of him. As for the insurgency, need we be told that BH were deliberately empowered by powerful men in the north and outside Nigeria to frustrate GEJ, or how could a group which Yar Adua easily crushed with ordinary police prove so powerful that our Army will be recording serious casualties in confronting them? That tells you that they were deliberately empowered to cause mayhem.

Why can't the northern elders, politicians and religious leaders call their people to order? How do you think Nigeria will be if MEND, MASSOB and OPC start killing and bombing their people? What efforts did the northern leaders make to curb BH in its infancy? Nothing! Rather they encouraged them, just to discredit GEJ. Even your Messiah (Buhari) called them freedom fighters and asked that they be given amnesty just like ND militants.
Abeg go and rest.

These guys are trouble makers i swear. They have sharia, they have grand kadi, they have almajiris, muslim symbols on the naira and so many other constitution backed activities. The only thing that will concern a prof who by his action is a troble maker, is a star symbol. He doesnt care about the naira worth. This man is pathetic.
From the look of things This man will prefer to have a very weak naira with a muslim symbol than a strong naira without one.
