This is what you say when you have nothing significant to contribute to the growth of the country. Naija is our nickname. We love it. There's no country in the world without a nickname.

Thank you!.

Nigeria is actually a slave name given to us by European slave traders. What the foolish government official don't know is that many African countries already changed their slave names and adopted a new name of their own choice.

Gold Coast was changed to Ghana.
Grain Coast to Liberia.
Upper Volta to Burkina Faso.
Southern Rhodesia to Zimbabwe
Northern Rhodesia to Zambia.
Spanish Guinea to Equatorial Guinea.
Zanziba to Tanzania.
Urundi to Burundi.
Spanish West Africa to Morocco and Western Sahara.
Nyasaland to Malawi.
German South West Africa to Namibia.
Dahomey to Benin Republic.
Kenya Colony to Kenya.
Cape Colony/Batavian Republic to South Africa.
Bechuanaland to Botswana.
Belgian Congo to Democratic Republic of Congo.

Niger-area (Nigeria) is a name used by the British to describe the geographical zone along the river Niger where the British got palm oil, cotton, cocoa, groundnut. Nigeria is a slave name!!!.

Nigerian elites and the so called educated people in this country are the dumbest people on earth!!. The only reason they don't like NAIJA is because it was created by Nigerians in Nigeria. Inferiority complex have them believe Naija is inferior and shouldn't be used. Isn't it a good thing we're trying to change the name the slave masters gave us??

Correct guy. Your head dey there

The name 'Nigeria' in it self is meaningless. It's concocted. Hw can we stick to the original when the original has no meaning. Since the foundation is flawed, wired things are bound to happen. NAIJA carry go.
