More on the controversial symbol on the new 100 Naira note

From a LIB reader. (If you don't understand this, read previous posts on this issue here
Want to bring to your notice that the old Twenty naira note, had cleverly tucked on both sides, half of Arewa logo, such that when both side are aligned it forms a tilted complete Arewa logo. The feature was taken off when the 5, 10, 20 and 50 naira notes were redesigned in 2006.
The MURIC should stop heating the polity with the call they made, they could have confirmed the claim before making it public because the said image from my point of view is a security feature on the new 100 naira note.
Attached (above) is an image proving the presence of Arewa logo on the Twenty naira note before it was redesigned in 2006.

The Hausas think Nigeria is their play ground, that is why they want to rule and die! That is why they will come out and make unfounded claims! Na only them be Muslims?! Yorubas and even Igbos have Muslims, why na Hausa Mulims go dey disturb us for this country?!

Phew! So we're still on this issue.
I guess we should focus more energy on the proposed austerity measure by the FG,in the face of our dwindling economy. We should instead debate how to make our senators,presidency and other highly placed public servants bear the major brunt of the austerity measure.
Not what logo should be on the currency note.

What is this one saying? Is that the issue here?

The sign MURIC pointed out that's on the new note is way different from the Arewa sign.

We should be more interested in the value of the naira now than these images that do not help us at all.

Go to your nearest BDC and tell me you won't shout when they tell you how much.

If the MURICs want to be heard they should talk about their Boko Haram brothers killing people and ISIS beheading people but of course! No muclim has come out to condemn them instead they pick on trivial issues. Rubbish

Is there no better things to worry about than this? cant you people even sit down to buck up your head over your devilish breeds who are destroying people for no reason other than pleasing the devil inside them. people of the devil by the devil and meant for the devil also used by the devil to destroy those who are not devilish as they are.

all you do is insult northerners without understanding a thing. Ajami is just a Hausa written text with Arabic alphabets. been in existence before Europeans set foot in Nigeria. FYI the person who wrote that letter is NOT even from the north and that AREWA symbol is at least nigerian. You guys are just...
