The Interpretation Of The Arabic Writing On The Nigerian Army Barge. by Fuckyoumod(op):
I came across this Nigerian army barge, symbol or seal whatever its called, with an Arabic inscription.

Dear Nigerians, whats the translation of that Arabic writing?

I thought our official Language is English?
So why Arabic?

these northerners can do whatever they please because they know that the Yoruba Muslims will always support them

This question was asked sometime ago,it was the Yoruba that were defending them and saying some northerners can't read English

We southerners wey dey read English dey foolish okwa ya?

That must be why victory has been eluding the Nigerian military in their battle with Boko Haram.

Allah is not God. At least not to other religions apart from Islam

God in Hausa is Ubangiji not Allah .

My friend stop defending bullshìt from your paymaster

Is Arabic any of our Nigerian ethnic languages?

Is English language any of Nigeria ethnic languages? Why must bible be written in English, is there anything wrong if bible is preached in its original format which is Hebrew, if you adopt Christianity why don't you adopt it completely in its original form, you are the greatest hypocrite of all time , you happily adopt what is alien to you, and faulting another person for adopting same.

I did not expect less from you guys as your hypocrisy is second to none. Always suffering from inferiority complex.
Does the Arabic inscription in any way affect the country?

I know where you are driving at already so stop disguising under "a simple question". I purposely answered you that way cos at the end you will bring religion into it.

Worst religious fanatics ever.
If it was written in Hebrew, you won't be asking such rhetorical question.
Re: The Interpretation Of The Arabic Writing On The Nigerian Army Barge. by UKkev: 10:51am On Aug 10, 2019
It means "VICTORY IS FROM GOD ALONE".......
Allah means God in Arabic, just like Chukwu means God in Igbo. Same way other languages have different names for "God".
#IgboAmaka.
God bless Eastern Nigeria
God bless Nigeria.
