You're too dumb to be on Nairaland.

Is God a Christian word? Is Allah not regarded as God?

Don't mind dem. They believe it is Arabic inscription while it's actually hausa language written in Arabic letters (Ajami) the way yoruba and igbo inscriptions are on some notes too. Hausa had be writing and documenting their history with this Arabic inscription b4 anything education got to the south.
Mynd44:

Dead case.

FG will kuku tell the court there is no Arabic insignias there since it is Ajami that is there

The reason for the Arabic inscription on Nigerian currency was due to the fact that when the colonial came to the northern region they met the majority of the people there were literate in Arabic language I.e they schooled, communicate and transact using the Arabic alphabets,that's why when introducing the official currency or medium of exchange they decided to include the Arabic for the simple understanding and also inclusiveness of the average northerner which also aid in their objective of amalgamating the southern and the noryhern protoctorate.

Even as at today majority of the Muslims in northern part can read and write in arabic as most of them attend Islamic school since from childhood.

Now I can understand better, but it can be written in Hausa and in Hausa context. I can read and understand Hausa Language a bit. The issue with Nigeria is distrust. And our leaders enjoy that we the masses don't trust each other because when we do, we should unite and tell them enough
Yes it could have been written in English-Hausa text but most northerners lack the knowledge except as it is written in Arabic text.

Since the money is meant to be a legal tender to all and sundry while embracing and carrying everyone else along

Mumu like you, The word "GOD" here refers to the supreme being wish you also believe in. You chose to call it "Allah" because you are more comfortable with Arabic language. But since our national Language is English & not Arabic, we continue to use "God"

Do you know who our heroes past were? Do you know they were Muslims and they spoke Arabic and Hausa languages majorly?

Whether it's Arabic or ajami the point is its not a recognized official language. Use Hausa instead or yoruba or igbo... Is that simple but for some very complicated. Sad. In this country, nothing happens by chance... It's always carefully planned especially when it's coming from the north

. I disagree with that.

Allah is a particular diety in islam worshipped by the muslims. The God Christians worship is the Almighty creator of Heaven and Earth and everthing in them.

I agree with this lawsuit. Thanks for bringing it to my consciousness Mr omihrobo. I never even thought of it.

I don't understand what those inscription means & it doesn't represent anyone I know. We shouldn't be defined by religion.
