cupid4ig: don't be deceived. U are seeing that on Google.com because u are using Nigerian ip address. Try change Ur ip to that of us or Germany u won't see that again.

You may be right. They are other countries worth celebrating on October 1st too. Maybe those countries will see their own achievement using their IP. This are the lists of Doodles for today.

2ndOGA:

Check again. http://Google.com is infact celebrating it too.

When you click it, it diverts to google.com.ng depending on the IP address.

How can people really not see through this! we are really ignorant. See people getting happy being mocked.

Wey the dodo now?me I no see any dodo inside the foto o

These disgusts is what Fashola saw that made him come up with the idea of a mega city but it seems many lack the same foresight.

freecharles: This is good...it feels good to know that Nigeria is recognized. How many countries get this on their independence day.

GREAT PEOPLE

Google celebrates almost every country it is used in when they av something special n it's only 4 d pple in dat country. This is only on google.com.ng n not google worldwide

We deserve something better.

timilehing: What a caricature!! Keke NAPEP, Danfo & Okada

thought I was the only one who saw this as an insult. if you look closely at the man with the flag in the passenger side of the danfo you'll notice that he has a certain resemblance to president Jonathan.

They always look for a way to subtly insult us with every chance they get

Wetin una want make google use before?? I beg dats d best way to caricature naija

IYANGBALI: Wey the dodo now?me I no see any dodo inside the foto o

Idrismusty97: It is only "Google.com.ng" celebrating it. "Google.com" isn't.

Haba! Whether Google 'don't' com or Google com, all na Google.

2ndOGA: Today, October 1, 2014 is Nigeria’s 54th Independence Anniversary Day and Google has a new doodle to celebrate with Nigerians on Google.com and Google.com.ng

The Animated doodle features the three major tribes in Nigeria on the three most notable means of transportation.

Nigeria gained independence on the 1st of October, 1960. This is the THIRD doodle for Nigeria’s Independence Anniversary to be released by Google since October 2010.

View it in real time here - http://google.com OR http://google.com.ng

StealthyMe: Those three modes of transport explains lots in details without saying a thing!

Google definitely have to celebrate Nigeria; we keep them in business ( with questions like 'the new cooker wey Mama Nkechi just buy,abeg how much e cost ; i know say na lie she been dey lie') ...lol
Proudly Nigerian...

Heeeee

My chewing stick don fall

Yorubas dont wear hat and If the Man represents Jonathan,the occasion isnt about him.It isnt bad sha!

Am new in dis NL anybeta 4 me?lols

Google is really gaining from Nigerians

It appears it detects your IP Address before displaying the Doodle on http://google.com

The fact that Google recognised Nigeria is laudable, but the caricature dose not go down well with me.

oluwalfa: Good of google for not including Igbos in that photo. They know we are not nigerians.

Please stop this we have passed this stage already. Igbos are Nigerians not anything you may call yourselves. We Igbos are pure Nigerians. We are ONE NIGERIA and NIGERIA is ONE.

2ndOGA:

Check again. http://Google.com is infact celebrating it too.

lie lie...it's only google.com.ng
