There were two flags during President Buhari's broadcast on Sunday, you can observe that if you really watch it , the two flags belong to Nigeria. The 2 flags behind the president signify his office as President of Nigeria, and as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces.

The national flag has three vertical bands of green, white, green. The two green stripes represent Nigeria's natural wealth, while the white band represents peace. The second flag is a 1:2 horizontal tetra colour of red, black, white, and green.

Flag of the Nigerian Armed Forces together with the Nigerian flag, it means President Muhammadu Buhari is both the President of Nigeria and also the commander in chief of the armed forces.

The Nigeria flag has three vertical bands of green, white, green. The two green stripes represent Nigeria's natural wealth, while the white band represents peace.

The second flag symbolise that it is the Commander in Chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces flag which has a 1:2 horizontal tetra colour of red, black, white, and green.

The flag of Nigeria was designed in 1959 and first officially hoisted on 1 October 1960. The flag has three vertical bands of green, white, green. The two green stripes represent Nigeria's natural wealth, while the white band represents peace.The flag is an adaptation of the winning entry from Michael Taiwo Akinkunmi in a competition held in 1959. Akinkunmi was a 23-year-old student at the time he designed the flag. He was studying at Norwich Technical College in London, England, when he saw an advertisement in a newspaper that submissions were being accepted for the design of a new national flag of Nigeria. The original submission had a red radiating sun badge in the central white vertical band with a green vertical band on each side. After the badge was removed by the judges, the flag has remained unchanged. It was first officially used on 1 October 1960, the day Nigeria was granted independence from the United Kingdom.

Many of us knew it was the flag of the armed forces. It was only painful to see that we have so many dull and uneducated people who were busy saying all sort of things about the flag.

Nigeria is a place were you find too many illiterates that can access internet, read and write but with absolutely no brain to ever comprehend or reason properly.

I don't know if it's my eyes but I'm seeing red, blue, white and green. I can't see black in the flag. Correct me if I'm wrong.
