PoliticsRe: Decreeing Boycott Of Arabic Is Equal To Boko Haram – Tolu Ogunlesi by Saintp(m): 8:59am On Jul 04, 2017
flyuche:
What's wrong if a Christian student learns Arabic? Arabic language is not Islamic studies. We have Arabic Bibles. We have Christians who are Arabs. The fear here is not necessary.
There is nothing wrong for a Christian learning Arabic if they desire. However I will not blame those who are suspicions of this whole arrangement. Like I said earlier, it is better to be put as a stand alone elective subject so that it will not be indirectly imposed on students due to lack of French.

FYI, Arabic studies was not introduced by the buhari regime. Arabic and French has been offered for long time as I can remember. I don't know when they introduce it bt I was it was an optional subject for us to choose when I started my secondary school in the 90s. So, i am surprised when I read the false information travelling around that PMB is d one that introduce Arabic. Lol.
And FYI also, CRK was nt cancelled. Both IRS and CRS were collapsed with other subjects like Civic education, social studies and security studies into a single subject called National values and security. The CRK theme will be offered to the christain while the IRS theme will be offered to the Muslims. Bt the rest will be taught together. The same thing happens with home economics and agricultural science, the merged them into one subject. And all these happens during GEJ time nt PMB time
People who need the Arabic language are Muslims normally and the good thing is that they know where to learn it. They have so many Islamic schools where Muslims are taught Arabic so why bring it into the school curriculum?

what will happen is the Christians particularly in the north will have no option than to go for Arabic since there may not be French teachers and this is the aim. Trust Nigerians to indirectly impose it on students.
The best thing they should have done if they desperately need to add Arabic is to leave it as an elective stand alone subject do that people can freely choose Arabic if they desire and not because they don't have access to French. What if I don't like both French and Arabic?
This govt has been accused of an islamization agenda and the best thing they can do is to avoid bringing up things that look suspicious except they allegation is true. Arabic is taught in Islamic schools so why not leave it at that.

Bros forget that thing. If you are not smart, these politicians will use ya head drink garri. Saraki has been pardoned by the powers that be in preparation for 2019. They have reached a compromise and that was why saraki was left off the hook in the first place.

This recent move of the FG is just a show to Nigerians to make it look like they are not happy with the judgement. Bros, nothing is happening to Saraki, they have already agreed on it.

GAZZUZZ:
that information is incorrect

Oga Gazzuzz

My AC is misbehaving. The compressor is erratic. When you switch on the AC, 50% of the time the compressor will not come on. So sometimes you have to keep doing on and off till you get lucky and the compressor comes on.

When the compressor comes on, it will work fine except that it may cut off at some point and start blowing just fan. You will then have to do on and off continuously again till you get lucky for the compressor to come on and the cycle continues like that.

I have taken to a technician but apart from topping the gas and testing for leakage, he does not know what else to do because it works fine if you get lucky on a normal day.

Do you have an idea on what the problem could be? The car is Nissan Sentra 2005

Churchill married Tonto to get to the limelight and become a celeb. He had the money so he needed a celeb to enter the news.

He has achieved his aim by marrying Tonto at least he is now a celeb, many people now know him. He can now dump her. Don't be surprised that he will reconcile with Bimbo at some point. The guy is just playing games.

Alhamdulillah. All praise be to the Almighty for His mercies. This is a welcome development from the usual stereotype of Muslims being considered terrorists. The religion of Peace is indeed Islam. I am pleased with Islam as a religion and with Mohammed as a messenger of Allah. Kudos to those who rep the true spirit of Islam and I pray for the guidance of the lost sheep of the deen. May Allah accept our good deeds in this holy month and reward us in manifold, amin.

The world is now a global village and whatever product you produce locally should compare and compete with foreign made ones in cost and quality.

What they should be concerned about is how to make thier rice cheaper and better than imported ones.
Imagine if they produce the same quality of rice like imported ones and it's available and cheaper, who would be stupid to import and run a loss?
Cost and availability remain the key to ending importation naturally. It is the same reason America still import most goods from China.

What's wrong with my post and how did I bring her down? I don't get why you guys are angry.
As a liberal minded person, I do not see anything wrong with your initial post. However, Nairaland is now a breeding ground of tribalists and there is suspicions everywhere.
Besides, judging from your Past posts on this platform, I also do not blame those who suspect you of tribalism.
Since we have sunk so low as a people to point missiles at each other, it is important to weigh your comments in a tribalistic edged filled country. Your intentions this time may be genuine but you spoilt it by not congratulating the woman first before bringing in another person into the equation.

Gathering of thieves
90% of Nigerians are bad people. It doesn't matter the political party, tribe, religion, age etc, the result will remain the same.

Every country has bad eggs but the difference is that their bad eggs are in the minority. but in naija, the bad eggs are in the super super majority, that means the probability of electing good leaders is far too low.

In keneking's voice "Amazing gathering"

If an Igbo man is president, he will still say the same thing Osibanjo said. The problem with Nigeria is that our political class from all regions are just too greedy and self centered.

The political class knows the truth but they keep playing to the gallery to protect their own personal interest.
But I think the biggest fools and losers are Nigerians who support and defend these politicians.At the end of the day, none of these politicians have your interest and that of the larger society at heart. While other world leaders are thinking and working to leave a better society for thier future unborn children, ours here do not care what future our next generation will inherit
If we can't solve these lingering problems now, the next generation of Nigerians should better no be born because they are going to be in a worse shit.

In Nigeria once you align and stay in the camp of the power brokers, you can be as corrupt as you can and nothing will happen.
The only way you can be prosecuted for corruption is if you are an outsider to the power brokers.

obicentlis:
The only gift Ikpeazu can give Abians is to swallow T. A. Orji and his family. If he can do this, he will have my support and support of millions of Abians who were victims of the former govt maladministration and corrupt govt.


BTW, why has efcc refused to investigate the former Governor or even continue with his case before he got immunity as governor?

I think that the man shared the loot with EFCC.
EFCC will not look his way because they don't see him as a threat to the FG. He is just hiding in the senate, have you even heard him talk? But the moment he starts making noise or criticising the FG and start becoming a threat, they will remember his case immediately.

This is kind of criminal that should be in jail but he is smart to lay low. EFCC is still chasing the corrupt ones who are disturbing the FG.

Adebowale89:
the price of goods still remained as it was when dollar was rising against naira


nothing is worth to celebrate here. even if it naira is 200 against dollars, it might still nt affect inflation positively


we Nigerians are the problem of ourselves most esp the trader


I doubt it if consumer right exist in this country

sigh!
You are getting wrong. There is no stability in the currency market yet. The risk is still much high.

Do you want traders to crash thier prices and then dollar rises high tomorrow, how would they make up for it?

Until there is stability in the currency market, there wouldn't be much change in the prices of goods in the market.

This is also true for the wider economy. The economy will never grow when there is instability in the polity and economy because no investor will want to invest where the risk is high.
Therefore, the first thing for any serious govt is to stabilize the polity and economy to give confidence to investors to come in.
