From the record, I could deduct that Igbos were reducing

From 100 (2009) % to 80% (2010) to 76% (2011)

What's the assurance that it hasn't reduced


Check,Yoruba own, its increasing from 35% (2009) to 75%(2011)

Shimran:
Ubangiji (Male)

Uwargiji (Female)

Whereas their translation means Lord' in English. Its known whether in English or Hausa, the above words (lord, uwargiji and ubangiji) can be referred to God, human, male or female and is countable noun( I.e has plural form)

To cut it short majority of Hausa are Muslims. 'ALLAH' can neither be plurarised nor be referred to female sex, and is mainly referred to as the only one God, no any other form of comparative. As SHIRK (associating other things with God is the biggest sin in islam)

Reason the Hausa's prefer the word Allah to God, to go against association of partner to him.

Thank you

Thanks for the explaination

Most of the guys attacking you here are Yorubas, the idiot if any of them see Igbo name that commit crime they will never see him or her as Delta or Rivers the will group them as Igbo but for good news the stupid minds will tell you they are from Delta or Rivers, they hate to see united Igbo nation, same idiots when you remind them that Ijebus and other subgroups in Yoruba are not Yoruba they will start insulting you

What's your evidence that most of his attackers here are Yoruba.


Kindly make use of the words most.
Because have seen those monikers that attacked him

Federalcase:
forget google they don't know what is going on in hausa land

Allah means God in arabic but it's tagged as a borrow language in hausa land. It's not only Allah that hausa borrowed from arabic there are many other words. The way i know it, most hausa that are muslim prefer to use Allah while the christian hausa mostly use ubangiji but majority of hausa are muslims that's why people think that allah is hausa words but it's not.

Gbam!

Asgard13:
Trash

Ignored.

Cos you have nothing upstairs

[s]

Asgard13:
That boy knows nothing.. but it’s everywhere

Better not to argue with him

Using university argue military ..

Even after you explained.... there’s a problem

[/s]

You are ignorant yet you don't wanna learn and don't know how the military works.

Or you think the COAS can visit the C in C without the CDS knowing?

Lol, the CDS has right to go to the military operations and obtain and give report to the president but dem no born COAS to go to the C - in - C without the CDS knowing about it. (Maybe except if they contact each other through calls )


You self,

[s]

RenaissanceGuy:
In the military parlance, it's different. The CDS cannot issue an order to any of the service chiefs because they're bosses in their own rights. His role is tacitly advisory, not command. Buhari knows what he's doing.

[/s]

Buhari can give order, the CDS can give a counter order if maybe the president isn't around or sick

And dem no born COAS not to follow his order
Stop saying what you don't know.

MadamExcellency:
Igbos are not substituting anything in place of God. 85% of Igbo names start with Chi meaning Chineke.

LadySarah:
Ppl just talking anyhow. Apart from Jehovah witnessess calling Jehovah and reading the Bible, which Igbo person calls God Jehovah?

It is Chukwu, Chineke or nothing.

You guys need to improve on your reading comprehension and understanding

AlexBells:
Stop judging an Igbo man by his name, so is David Mark a British,

True
You're making some point

capatainrambo:
Chief of defence is supposed to be minister of defence. But somehow in Nigeria they re different office

Minister of defense is an appointed post, thou I think is more higher than CDS

Sultannayef:
I can’t argue with you because you don’t know.
Take care!!

You're clearly saying rubbish.

COAS is a department or agency under CDS


Stop saying what you don't know

[s]

Sultannayef:
You don’t know what you’re talking about.

The CDS can’t move troops around without the chief of army staff.

In Nigeria today.. the Chief of Army Staff is way more powerful than the CDS.

[/s]

What nonsense are you saying?
Lemme use University as an example.
Head of department is usually a Senior lecturer
Are you telling me Senior Lecturers are more powerful than Head of department.


Same as the military.
They're were all in the same rank before one is being promoted to CDS!

The CDS can recommend the COAS sack or retirement
The CDS can reduce the allocation of COAS

In fact the CDS can punish COAS in many ways because he's their head.

The COAS can't do anything without the CDS him dey crazy ni?

You all thought the COAS is powerful because he's more active and visible during buhari administration, why can't you use Jonathan administration where the CDS Is more visible than COAS

BusinessCity:
That's easy to say. Do you know the term Ba and the other Al has been used by Arabians for over 4000 years to ascribe different deities and gods?


My dear, Arabs brought things people who didn't question it's root accepted. Period. 9 out of 10 of such faithful never knew beyond Allah is God in Arabic which is what was dished.



All ancient Arabic gods that was served in place of God pro-government erase was termed " the Lord " aka ba'al aka Allah which y'all do not know until today your day of being educated



My dear Allah isn't god but a man made idol

Well, let's leave that aside and focus on the subject fess

AlexBells:
Same way you may not know what Idoko means, Nsukka people answer that

You are correct OP

BusinessCity:
To confuse naive people


Ubangiji is God and not Allah. Allah is a creation of man to follow a strange set of ungodly rules contrary to God.


If people delve deep into the origin of the word Allah, you'll be shocked to see its root deep in Baal, pro-government time idol King. Ba-al which was wrongly asserted as a straightforward word Baal.

I think you're wrong in your last sentence.
Allah is an Arabic word for God as
Olorun is a Yoruba word for God

triple996:
Google knows nothing
Ubangiji is the right word bt Allah is also used though gotten 4rm arabic

Just like Igbos / Yoruba substituting Chineke / Olorun for Yahweh / Jehovah in our sayings / sentences and words

RenaissanceGuy:
Ceremonial. The main power rests with the chief of army staff.

You are saying rubbish.

Just Like saying a head of department in university is ceremonial while the senior lecturers have the main power.

Truth is the Chief of Army staff cannot do anything without the CDS knowing

CDS can cage or punish the COAS in many ways

I have noticed the word Ubangiji is almost (if not) going into extinction.

Hausa word for God is Ubangiji. Even google self made mistake.

Reason behind them using Allah, I don't know when Allah Is purely an Arabic word.

Ubangiji means the Supreme Being.
Sariki n Salama means Prince of Peace.
Ubanjidi n Dunia means Master of the World.
Mai Taimako means the Helper.
Ruhun Hikima means Spirit of Wisdom.
Allah Mai Iko means Powerful God.
Allah Mai Girma means Great God.
Tushen Rai means the author of Life.
Uba Madu Kaki means the Father of Glory

Source: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.legit.ng/amp/1184912-names-god-hausa-language-meanings.html

Any northerner here to explain why Ubangiji and Allah are used as a substitute above?

But that CDS nah ibo nah.

Ain't anioma ibos again

"I" in an I oma means Ika

lastmessenger:
Collected mostly from the south and used mostly in the North

That's because northerners owns this country that's the pure truth.

Out of the total amount generated in Q4 2020, N212.52bn was generated as Non-Import VAT locally while N143.35bn was generated as Non-Import VAT for foreign. The balance of N98.81bn was generated as NCS-Import VAT.

Nigeria Customs didn't deliver everything. I'm sure

Professional Services generated the highest amount of VAT with N42.38bn generated and closely followed by Other Manufacturing generating N39.45bn, Commercial and Trading generating N21.15bn

- Mining generated the least and closely followed by Pioneering and Textile and Garment Industry with N58.88m, N185.72m and N353.75m generated respectively.

We need to up our game in mining sector.
Its clearly people ain't into mining.

Brendaniel:
a very big lie, Abacha's government was economically better than all the governments in Nigeria since 1999, he was a thief yes but looting was restricted to only a few of his clicks, unlike what we have today, he was a tyrant yes, but he only terrorised politician and big men who stepped on his toes, he had no business with the masses, lastly it was a heavily militarized government which had soldiers everywhere doing the work of police too, but economically Nigeria was better...

You don't know what you're saying.
Or do you mean Abacha Government is better than buhari own?

Okuda:
Okorocha has no "moral right" to float any political party. he shpuld spe d the rest of his days regretting the calamity he and a few others brought upon nogeria.

I know.

Okuda:
Okorocha, your idea is dead on arrival. you would have been a Legend in the east by now under APGA had it been you did not join the APC, you were warned many times. you sold your soul to a blood sucking evil president and you would still pay the price. your own time is coming! David Umahni, take note.

Bros when will you learn everyone has his or her own right to any party this is Democracy nah.

Will it be good If everyone is in PDP or if everyone is in APC or if everyone is in apga?
