FFK: Rivers, Change Port Harcourt Name, Here Is Why by LifestyleTonite: 6:36am On Oct 05, 2019
Former minister of aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, FFK, has give reason why Rivers State needs to change the name of their capital from Port Harcourt.

The Rivers State capital was named after a British man named Lord Lewis Vernon Harcourt.

According to FFK, the man was a pedophile who doesn’t deserve to have a city named after him.

He tweeted:

Lord Frederick Lugard and wife Flora Shaw gave Nigeria her name. The meaning of the word "NIGERIA" from the latin word "NIGER" (meaning "BLACK"wink is "BLACK AREA, AREA OF DARKNESS OR BLACK SPOT". Most African nations changed their names after independence. Sadly Nigeria did not.

The name of the city was Igweocha, named because when our ancestors were approaching the ocean, there are no more jungle land to provide cover, instead they will be seeing a open heaven where the ocean reflects skywards causing some heavy contrast. The next generation called it Pitakwa.

Igweocha should replace the imported name of Port Harcourt.

Wike knows FFK is telling the truth so his response will be to do the right thing and rename the city according to its old name of Igweocha.

No. They must follow everything Fraud Luggard told them. He named their shithole nigga-area and imposed the name of a rapist on their capital, let them keep following blindly. Nigerians are gullible.
