opeano: u can c we had diff pics of d same event. I wouldnt want u to crucify me for dis. If i searched for dis topic (which i dint). Am sure i cnt find it cos its not coated wt same topic as mine. Dis is just to show dat wat was reported as seen wasnt a rumour afterall. Someone has corroborated it. From dat thread.
Dont mind me o...Was just kidding!

Plz do your research. All rainbows are circular. Just because we see it from ground level, that's why we only see half of it (Semicircle). If u are in the sky, u will see rainbow as full circle. As for the topic in question, this is not rainbow but halo as been mentioned.

Havilah93: Nigerians and lack of knowledge. . .

That's no rainbow. Its an optical phenomenom called a 'halo'

I'm sure many have seen that before but just dont know what it is.

NIGERIANS... You do realize that you just generalized a country of 150 million People..

My dear, rainbows are always a full circle. It all depends on the angle from which a rianbow is being veiwed.
It is pertinent that d rainbow formed directly above Ibadan. Those in Ibadan will see it in full while those in other places would see a part of it.

Hmmm people are so smart, too much lies just to get attention.
Contrary to d OP's claim dat d 'halo rainbow around d sun' pic was taken in Ibadan; anybody who read/sighted d frontpage of The THISDAY's newspaper lastweek could dispel dis claim.
The above picture was included in a cover story on Thisday Newspaper last week. It gave an account of the phenomenon behind 'rainbow-around-d-sun' and how world scientists av explained d mystery as far as their research about it led them.

PEOPLE CAN LIE, THE STORY HAS NO IOTA OF CONNECTION WITH NIGERIA, I LIVE IN IBADAN. I READ D STORY LASTWEEK AND WE DISCUSSED D MYSTERY AT D VENDOR'S STAND. OP must mean d Ibadan in Wide-Weird-Space!

I am not surprise,Oyo State is a pace setter,1st University 1948,1st road 1906,1st Tv station etc. So if the first circular rainbow is added,it is just a new feather to her cap.

for d fact dat u saw dis on d front page of a newspaper doesnt mean dat dis news is a lie. If u read wat i wrote, u will discover dat i said i dint c d rainbow myself. I got d pics from a frd who claimed he saw it and snapped. And frm d other evidences frm some pipu in ibadan. it occurred on tuesday sept 10th.Look tru d comments. I dint even knw dat someone has had another thread on d same occurrence. Here is the link https://www.nairaland.com/1433326/something-sky-pics#18021936
