Well said. And studying Arabic in Nigeria schools will transform Nigeria to top 10 world economies. Abi?

Has English done so?
Was that condition set for English?

ollah1:


I said "western countries" . The keypoint here is in quotes. If I wanted to say England, i would have said it. Perhaps, you don't know how to identify a lie. You simply don't know basic comprehension

I don't know why you spent much time responding to an illiterate who will be discussing mango when the subject is orange.

How else do you justify that response that exhibited nothing but a deplorable and acute shortage of comprehension?

What she does on daily basis is jumping from one thread to the other crying all over the places. An indication that someone is actually feeling the heat of the inevitable recession. She goes by all the varieties of eph.

But let me ask, is it possible to travel to dubai without a passport? Na for nairaland I see dat one.

austinvsb1:


Hence this outrage! Islam was introduced into the curriculum by the ministry of education. No christain body can decide to introduce a Christian related study except the ministry. Whatever is good for the goose is good for the gander!

But I was forced to Learn CRK in a PUBLIC school in the SW
I bought Songs of Praise and memorized hymns
On the net, they say I am intolerant

mmsen:


The reason why you have no issue with the level of poverty in the north is because you have no humanity, decency or conscience.

Nor are you rational, if you were you would understand that the poverty in the north is why the issue with Boko Haram came about and why the northern masses are so prone to senseless violence in the form of pogroms.

Word.

Hopefully the rational ones among them can connect the dots, although that is like squeezing water out of a stone considering the highly irrational ones which have been posting on this thread.

Poverty of the mind, in addition to poverty of resources. Very unfortunate. That is why most of them sit down in Nigerian govt agencies, you seldom hear of them graduating from Ivy League schools or achieving international aclaim, it's always those from other parts of the country that do. A system that produces people that cannot compete on a global level, or even achieve international standards. Shame.

mmsen:


Where did I excuse poverty in the south?

Why can't you think in a straight line?

Why are you so irrational?

Oh, there is poverty in the south too?

Small fry, then concentrate on that and leave the north alone since poverty is a national thing not necessarily a consequence of any religious practice, otherwise all southerners would have been as rich as Evans, the kidnapper.

mmsen:


You still do not understand the purpose of education and you very stupidly assume that I am a xtian.

Islam and xtianity have no business in schools.

They do since Civic Education books are now talking about gays and translost gender

ngolokante:
I am a Muslim and a very happy and proud one at that, but at times I wonder why our leaders like courting controversies... There is nothing wrong with have a subject covering one faith but it must be balanced with inclusion of other faiths or all of them removed in a worse case scenario... It's just common sensical abeg

So you think Muslims are courting controversy
Ok
Why do Christians complain about mention of Sharia in our constitution
Let them allow us to base Nigerian constitution on Saudi Arabia model with Canon law mentioned 1,000 times
Let us go to work Sunday to Thur
or do that for half of the year

ollah1:


You asked a question and i answered you accordingly

Did I? Where?

Meritocracy:
Islam is not like any other other religion, you need to learn how to do everything from the scratch unlike Christianity when you can go to theology school anytime and become pastor and start misleading people.

hmm nawao

Call me for Arabic lessons......I'll teach you so much, joining ISIS will be your dream.

But mind you that the north and south west have Christians too. So, the govt should also include Christian religion studies too for the Christian students.

QueenOfNepal:
It can only happen in the North and SW because there will be no Islamic teachers in SE/SS.


Buhari evil plans has failed. He ll not return to continue his evils

They will always shouting islamisation agenda yet no one has islamised them. Hypocrites CAN.

ivolt:

Your friend qualifying to work in Saudi Arabia is his personal achievement
and I see nothing to celebrate in there for an average Nigerian.
Never put Arabic language together with English and French, they
are not in the same class.
Most Scientific breakthroughs are published in English, French and German,
same cannot be said of Arabic whose only claim to fame is Islam.


Why do you think your friend qualified to work in Saudi Arabia when Saudi
has an unemployment rate of 30% ?
Because the myopic Saudi Monarchy are only interested in sponsoring Arabic/
Islamic studies which made most of its citizen incapable of administration.
Yet, you want to import a language which has failed to uplift its native speakers
and force Nigerian kids to learn it ?
If you remove religious sentiment from your argument, you will realise that Arabic
is economically useless to Nigerians.


This statement is meaningless in this context, Arab are group of people
who speak Arabic so we would expect that some percentage of non-muslims
also speak Arabic but that doesn't in any way justify the inclusion of Arabic
language in a Nigerian curriculum.



CAN will be a big fool to fight for a useless right which do nothing
but increase the endemic inferiority complex in our society.

Rational people and groups fight for right to Life, Security,
Health, Wealth and preservation of Cultural identity while
the deluded ones fight for right to learn a useless language.

Any group fighting for the teaching of a foreign language
because of their religion is misguided and useless.



The state owes you nothing in terms of religious education, send your kids
to madrassa if you want them to learn Arabic.

I don't even know where to start from. you are very ignorant. stop making claims that you are not sure of

chngebeginwthme:


What a dead brain comment, How will they force it on every student OMG? is that how daft you are? Even History was not force on any student ...

Mogbe ooo

it's like you don't know ozaoekpe. he never makes any meaningful.

That's what happened in the turkey. It was a christian nation before.

APCsupporter:

Uncle Gbawe leave me alone

How can studying Arabic and Islamic studies leads to Islamization of Nigeria? These people must be high on cracked cocaine. Their lives are full of hatred and they are very likely to die of heart attack. Rubbish.

There is nothing absolutely wrong in the point brought up by CAN president. The idea speaks of mischievous plans. I am so surprised at the responses of the people in this forum. Osinbajo was recently accused of NEPOTISM by the Muslim. I am appalled at the Muslim apologists, we question your loyalty to this nation. Why bring up divisive moves if you do not have an ulterior motive. You don;t have to be a religious person for you to know that is is not right. Look at the apportioning of appointments nationwide how fair is that? It is high time issues like these are raised to curbed untoward actions that can lead to further division.

After breeding terrorist in the north with their occultic book, they now want recruits from South.

Useless and intolerable set of people.

This zoo must fall !

QueenOfNepal:
A divisive President that caled me 5%?




#NotMyPresident

Don't worry yourself.

Buhari will never return as president.

LionDeLeo:


Says who?

Arabic studies is only for muslims and I can't see how this should any of your gaddem biz.

You obviously didn't read the OP...

You're more 'clueless' than GEJ

Why argue with a fool

A brainiac looks like a fool within deluded and gullible folks.

C.A.N is out to divide Nigeria further along religious lines.There is nothing like Islamic Arabic Studies.

An organisation full of mischief. Below is the new school curriculum.No body was lacerated, it is all lies from the pit of hell.Let them name the kwaran school and the teacher.Even if it happened it could only be an exception by an extremist teacher.

Nigerians are too lazy to carry out independent research,always ready to assimilate and react negatively to what they are given.

SMH.

The curriculum does not make Arabic compulsory:
