Some people will run with this saying.... "He is campaigning in Arabic... Nigeria is NOT an Islamic state... etc

Thankfully he is campaigning under the Labor Party

See English translation of the Billboard below:

The first part reads:

Bashir Isihaq Bashir, candidate contesting for Kano State Governor.

The second part reads:

* For Better Healthcare
* Good Education
* Improve Farming
* Access to Electricity

Arabic is a language just like English...
Arabic doesn't translate to Islamic...
Whatever happens in the north stays in the north...

Even at that, nobody would even dare use that on campaigning for a general election.

It is Hausa

He is campaigning in HAUSA in the AJAMI script.

Before the first white man stepped into Hausaland in the 1820's....the way they wrote the Hausa language was in ARABIC SCRIPT...AJAMI SCRIPT.

Infact, it is present on the NIGERIAN CURRENCY.....

Hausa became written down in Roman script from 1908 (revised sometime around 1935).

Again, AJAMI SCRIPT
.


Modifed

OP has given the translation...

Even then, a candidate putting up his signs in Arabic does not mean islamization of Nigeria.

Period.

APC , PDP, LP people...give us issues, not jokes.

Hausa wetin ?

That’s pure Arabic right there.

Labor party is trying to islamize Nigeria. Ever since that lunatic Obi Pandora chose a Mauritanian Datti as his Vice, I’m sure he’s trying to islamize Nigeria as a sacrifice for his stillborn ambition.

I’m a Muslim. That’s Arabic text written in it.

Even if you want to say it’s Ajami, the source is still Arabic.

I can see alif, ba , ta, ain, ghain, shin, ro, and etc in that picture you shared. Those are the first thing we learn in ile-kewu and I be confirm Yoruba.

Me I go Ile-Kewu wella. Whether Ajami or not, the source is still Arabic.

What about the Kano residents who do not understand ajami? Is it that he wants his vote to come from only that subsection of kano voters?
