Politics / The Origin Of Nigeria State Names by lokito: 7:26am On Jan 26, 2017 |
THE ORIGIN OF NIGERIAN STATE NAMES *Abia* Abia is an acronym derived from the name of the four main groups of the people in the state as at the time it was formed in 1991: Aba, Bende, Is'uikwuato & Afikpo. *Adamawa* This state was named after a warrior that conquered the region in the beginning of the 19th century. His name was Modibbo Adama Bin Ardo Hassan. *Akwa-Ibom* Akwa Ibom is named after a river, the Qua Iboe (or Kwa Iboe) River. *Anambra* It was derived from the name of the Oma Mbala (Omambala) River (in Igbo, the native name of the river is Ànyịm Ọma Mbala). *Bauchi* There are three versions of how Bauchi got its name. One version says ‘Bauchi’ is Hausa word meaning the southern flanks of Hausaland. Tribes living in the southern parts of the Hausaland were referred to as "kasashen bauchi" and the area they lived in later came to be known simply as Bauchi. Bauchi. According to the second version, the state was named after Baushe, a famous hunter who settled there before the 19th century while the third states that ‘bauchi’ is Hausa word for slavery since it was a center for slave traders. *Bayelsa* Bayelsa was formed as a result of the clamour from the three LGAs in old Rivers (Brass LGA known as BALGA, Yenagoa LGA known as YELGA and Sagbama LGA – SALGA). The name came about from the combination of their acronymns. BA + YEL + SA = BAYELSA *Benue* It is a word from the Batta language ‘Binuwe’ which means ‘Mother of Waters’. *Borno* The name was derived from ‘Borno’, an alternative name of the Kanuris who form the predominant ethnic group in the state. *Cross River* The state took its name from a River called Oyono or Cross River. *Delta* It was named after the delta of the River Niger formed as it enters the Atlantic Ocean. *Ebonyi* The state was named after the Aboine River that cuts through Abakaliki, the state capital. *Edo* Named after the Bini people who had always referred to themselves as Edo or Iduu. *Ekiti* ‘Ekiti’ is a term that is said to denote a settlement of many hills. *Enugu* Enugu derived its name from two local words "enu" & "ugwu" which means ‘top of the hill’. *Gombe* Named after the dialect of Fulani language (Fulfulde) spoken in the area ‘Gombe’. *Imo* This state is named after the Imo River (Mmiri Imo). *Jigawa* The state was named after its distinctively golden-coloured soil, Jigawa. *Kaduna* The state after the crocodiles in Kaduna River. "Kadduna" is Hausa plural word for crocodiles. *Kano* The state was named after a blacksmith of the Gaya tribe who settled in the area while sourcing for ironstone. His name was Kano. *Katsina* Katsina was named after the wife of the local ruler known as Janzama. Her name was Katsina. *Kebbi* Legend has it that Kebbi was named after the Ka’abba in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. *Kogi* The name Kogi was said to have been derived from ‘kogi’, (hausa word for river). This is to represent the fact that the two biggest Rivers in Nigeria, River Niger and River Benue form a confluence in the state. *Kwara* This was named after the River Niger which forms the Northern border of the state. The Nupes used to call the river, Kwara. *Lagos* The name is a Portuguese word for lakes. The Portuguese were the first settlers from Europe to reach Lagos in 1472. The name was inspired by the lagoons and rivers in Lagos. *Nasarawa* It was so named by the founder of Nasarawa kingdom, Makama Dogo. Nasarawa means Victorious. *Niger* Niger Named after the popular River Niger. *Ogun* Named after the Ogun River. *Ondo* This was named after the settlers of the old Ondo Kingdom. Ondo is a word for settlers. *Osun* Like a number of other Nigerian states, it was also named after a river; River Osun. . *Oyo* It was named after the Old Oyo empire. Plateau The state was named for the Jos Plateau. *Rivers* A state with many water bodies, Rivers State was named for many of the rivers present in the area. *Sokoto* Named after the defunct Sokoto Caliphate. Sokoto is the anglicized version of the Arabic word ‘suk’ which means ‘market’ or ‘place of commerce’. *Taraba* The state was named after the Taraba River. *Yobe* The state was named after Komadugu Yobe (Waube or Ouobe) or River Yobe (or River of Yo). *Zamfara* Zamfarawa is one of the subdialects of Eastern Hausa linguistic |

Politics / Buhari And His Fallacy Of Tu Quoque by lokito: 1:49pm On Jan 22, 2017 |
Nigeria my country is like a 'danfo' bus. So many drivers use it and handover to a successor at four to eight years interval. GEJ came in and drove this bus for about six years. He used this bus recklessly until the bus couldn't move again. He spoilt the four tyres, the bolt-joints, cambers and all motion-related components went bad prior to his leaving. However, one thing was certain, albeit this bus couldn't move, people were still able to Kickstart the vehicle engine; use the vehicle air conditioner; charge phones; relax inside et al. In 2015, Buhari came into limelight. He condemned his predecessor for destroying our 'danfo', for deteriorating its mobile components that should give us the motion we need to proceed. In fact there was a petulant miff on people wasting our resources. Why should people continue to use the AC and charge their phones inside this 'danfo'? For what? "Don't you know we are running out of gas" Instead of the present administration to replace the four tyres and repair all motion-related components, they removed the complete engine of our 'danfo' to avert waste of this so-called gas. Now Nigerians can no longer start the bus to charge phones, relax and enjoy the vehicle AC. Everybody is stranded at the same time. At this point, I have to ask this question: "Oga Presido, when will you fix our 'danfo' for us?" We were once managing this bus before you came in. The earlier you know it, the better. We are tired of your fallacy of tu quoque. Lokito |

Buhari has got nothing to do with this. The reason is simply because Nollywood stepped up their game. Everything improved unlike the old, village, igbotic settings movie they used to shoot In Asaba, Where ghosts will be scared to cross roads. Someone will wanna commit suicide and shoot himself three times in the head Patience Ozokwo will put poison in your food, she'll taste it first but won't die You'll see 20years ago and their dog will still be alive in the movie ABI 20years ago you go even see a poster of VOTE BUHARI 2015 3 Likes 1 Share |
