The nomenclature doesn't matter. The attitude and behavioural disposition is of more essence

NtoAkwaIbom:
this people well so? so na name dey cause backwardnes

as them to tell you the meaning of biafra now, them go they look you like say you dey speak swahili

wailers

They are mocking "Ya ri ba" sorry i mean Yoruba with in a way.

simpleseyi:
Mad people everywhere. So this is what Ohanaeze has reduced itself to? But, wetin concern Biafrans with Nigeria's name?

I dey wonder too

SoNature:


Good idea, but what does I represent?

MI represent the first two letters of Middle Belt

Dayuuuuuum! That's harsh

ProWalker:
These people love the sound of their voice. They just want to say anything to remain in the public space

You must be feeling important and superior thanks to Nairaland, meanwhile you a nobody that is likely living in a slum and struggling to make ends meet.

Another reason not to give the Ohanezes power to rule the country. They will just use the opportunity to change the name from Nigeria to Biafra.

Arrest this man.

For this small situation you dey use all these grammar? easy oo, we too dey over do, the brits don't take English serious the way we do.

Why do people now blame those who say Igbos would sell this country if given the chance to rule? This statement from one of their highly respected representation looks like a confirmation. Change the name Akpu to Cassava, will it not taste the same? Would Nigeria's problem magically vanish becuase we changed our name? Sometimes I wonder if there's something in the water or the food we eat because most Nigerians nowadays speaks and acts like drunkards, Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa/Fulani all the same.....

gidgiddy:
A Nigerian is just an African who Lord Lugards wife named after a River.

Quite disgraceful

Possibly, Nigeria might be suffering from mermaid/river goddess curse!

Let our so called pastors & imams help enquire from heaven, maybe there will be solution provided they too will not seize that as opportunity to rake in money in the name of intervention o!

What business do they have with Nigeria?

That is your opinion. Stop getting angry and allowing issues of NL to get under your skin easily

Hahaha. I. No speak grammar oo. Just saying changing a dogs name doesn't stop it from being a dog

i suggest United States of Africa

I said it here before that the name Nigeria is a wrong name with strange meaning but some die hard educated illiterate came on board to insulted me.

Word is enough for the wise. I know what I'm saying.

It's true we need rebranding

That goes to say that the Igbo presidency is still not the solution!
-Ọhaneze

Well the local name for the Niger River is Kwara . So lets change it to Kwaralia or Kwara Republic. Or Benue Republic. But Ohaneze is right. The fact that we still have the name Nigeria shows how little effort our government puts into running our country.

Dayuuuuuum! That's harsh

how old are you now

Name changes dont make a country successful or unsuccessful. Countries that changed their colonial name haven't suddenly become successful, have they?

unbitchable:

how old are you now

Does it matter? Pls don't stress me biko.

Of course the name Nigeria would definitely take a new shape someday. At worse we would be called "New Nigeria".

Time and chance happens to everything under the sun!

How does any of it concern you? Or you just an unfortunate pained fellow? If we had something in d past, abeg forgive and move on. No need snooping around other people's business.

Omoodua007:
Biafra is a portugese word like Lagos so they should fix that first

Dont just say Biafra is a Portuguese name, What does Biafra mean in Portuguese?, cause I know Lagos means lagoon or lake
