it's not magga. is there an English prime minister or a British PM?

English pounds is different from the Scottish pounds..

The laws are also somewhat different..

Apart from the olympics, they also compete as separate nations, dumbo..

Do you even know Scotland has a different parliament, apart from the one in Westminster?
Re: Bayelsa Adopts Own Flag, Coat Of Arms And Anthem by ODB2: 1:51am On Aug 08, 2012
The parliament thing and currency stuff is recent. The Scots still pledge allegiance to the English Crown which happens to be the Head Of State of GB.

Is Scotland listed as a member nation in the UN?

Go back to your minimum wage job

You're a wack job, stick to posting e.rotic pictures - and stop arguing what you know little, or nothing about...

They're all countries within a country...

The Scots are going to have a referendum in the next couple of years, for full independence, and there's nothing Westminster can do to stop them..

Yes I guess living in damp squalid filth in between hustling minimum wage and looking on how to grab a bestowed citizenship makes my life a whole lot worse than yours.
It's called autonomy and not a full fledged state.

Answer me this; Do the Scotts carry separate passports?
Re: Bayelsa Adopts Own Flag, Coat Of Arms And Anthem by Nobody: 2:17am On Aug 08, 2012
And a state police too !

Faggit, fvck off, cu.nt faced cum bucket...

You think I've got time to argue back and forth with a riff raff, who knows nothing better than posting erotic pictures, plonker??

And why do you think there are English artists, journalists, footballers, sportsmen/sportswomen etc...?

I don't want to get too personal by using myself as an illustration - google is your friend, pillock..

just like we have Ibo, Yoruba and Hausa journalists, footballers, etc.

Being English in GB is a tribal categorization and not a nationality, tongue.

Even Lagos Island Local Government has its own Coat of Arms. I once posted the flags of all the regions of Nigeria. I shall do so again on this thread.

@Bolded

That will not happen because Abuja is actually part of the north. The natives of Abuja are the GWARI people so I don't know how Abuja will fit into oodua republic. The hausa and fulani people will not sit and watch that happen. Besides, Nigerians from all ethnic groups own land and properties in Abuja. What happens to them?
Re: Bayelsa Adopts Own Flag, Coat Of Arms And Anthem by naptu2: 4:02am On Aug 08, 2012
These are the Flags of Northern Region (1960-1966), Eastern Region (1960-1966), Western Region (1960-1966), Mid-Western Region (1964-1966), Lagos (1960-Present), Hausa/Northern Republic Flag of 1966 and Republic of Biafra's flag (1967-1970).

Below is the flag of the Eastern Region.

Below is the Northern/Hausa Republic flag, during the call for "Araba" (separation) in 1966.

Re: Bayelsa Adopts Own Flag, Coat Of Arms And Anthem by naptu2: 4:11am On Aug 08, 2012
Note: each region had its own constitution (see 1960 & 1963 federal constitutions).

Thanks @ foyeks2001

Below is the flag of the Republic of Biafra (1967-1970). You can see that the "rising sun" theme is adapted from the flag of the Eastern Region.

You can clearly see that the coat of arms of the State of Osun was adapted from the coat of arms of the Western Region.

Below is the coat of arms and flag of the State of Osun.

O_D_B: A state flag is different from a National flag dimwits.

All states that make the U.S. have their own flag and crest.

It's similar to Lagos crest and motto.

Even Great Britain which is comprised of several individual Nations (England, Wales, Scotland and N.Ireland) all have their own emblems and flags

so who are you,, or what are you to call others dimwits?*
