The sun signifies light. Since there's no light in Nigeria they decided to kuku remove the sun from the flag.

Lmao! That's quite an interesting angle

Let's jog you a lil bit down memory lane! PA Micheal Taiwo Akinkunmi, designed the Nigerian Flag in 1959 and it was first hoisted in October 1, 1960. Taiwo Akikunmi emerged the winner of the Nation's flag design contest, organized by his college, Norwood Technical College in London.

Here is the original flag design & The present Flag design

Which of these designs so you love more?

No wonder they changed it. Everyone knows celebrities have stage names and fans know for sure that most times, their monikers are not the names their parents christened them with.

Here are seven names of Nigerian Top celebrities that you may not have known :

1. Who Is Mr. Ogunmefun?

That is Mr. Olanrewaju Ogunmefun to you. With all his over 16 bars from day one, sometimes its easy to forget that Vector Tha Viper is a typical Yoruba boy with a typical Yoruba name.

2. So Who One Of You Is Ojereh?

Contrary to popular belief: Don Jazzy‘s real name does not have Jazz in it And he’s not Donald. That being said, Michael Collins Ojereh doesn’t exactly roll of the tongue, does it?

3. Looking For My Odom

You may know him as Timaya but his Mama calls him Inetimi; Inetimi Odom. Its not so hard to see where he got the ‘Tim’ from, but the ‘Maya’? That’s a question only Mr. Odom can answer.

4. Its Your Boy Tosin

As it turns out the Leg Over singer is not our boy Eazi! He is our boy, Oluwatosin Ajibade. Don’t believe us? Ask his daddy.

5. Hanniel Noni is such an angelic name, isn’t it?

How Reeky Tom Tom got Reekado Banks from Ayoleyi Hanniel? When you find out please let us know.

6. Say hi Modupe Cheedah

Modupe Oyeyemi clearly started off being inspired by her legal name when she was shopping for a stage name but we are guessing her favorite type of cheese came in at some point and inspired her.

7. What do y’all think about DJ Florence Otedola?

There is no doubt that you will recognize the ‘Otedola’ surname but did you know that Mr. Otedola’s musically inclined daughter is actually named Florence. We’ll take Cuppy over Florence though…just saying.

Did we miss anything? ADD THE ONES YOU KNOW

Bishop TD Jakes recently visited Nigeria and was in House on the Rock to preach the gospel.

There, he was presented with the National Souvenir “Nigeria: Our Heritage” by the senior pastor of HotR Paul Adefarasin and his wife Ifeanyi.

Ifeanyi, on her Facebook on Friday, revealed that TD Jakes had traced his roots back to Nigeria – the Igbo, to be precise.

She shared a photo of herself and her husband presenting the bishop with the book, and wrote:

SINCE TRACING HIS ROOTS BACK TO THE IGBO LAND IN NIGERIA, IT WAS BISHOP T.D. JAKES’ FIRST TIME STEPPING ON THE NIGERIAN SOIL, WITH THE KNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS WHERE HE TRULY COMES FROM. IT WAS A SPECIAL HONOUR FOR ME IN PARTICULAR, AS A NATIVE SISTER, TO PRESENT TD JAKES WITH A COPY OF NIGERIA, OUR HERITAGE…OUR COMMONWEALTH. WELCOME HOME!

The Rivers State Police Command has dismissed Police Sergeant, Johnbosco Okoroeze, for allegedly helping suspected ritual killer, Ifeanyi Dike, escape from the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department in Port Harcourt.

Okoroeze was also arraigned before a chief magistrate’s court on two counts of obstruction of justice and conspiracy. No bail was granted to him, he remains in police custody for the alleged offences.

Chief Magistrate, Sokari Andrew-Jaja, cautioned the dismissed Sergeant as he cried uncontrollably inside the court. The prime suspect, Ifeanyi Dike raped, killed and removed the organs of 8 year old Victory Nmezuwuba, before he was arrested and taken to the SCIID.

Okoroeze, who was the Investigating Police Officer, said he temporarily removed Dike's handcuffs while he took his statement, but that Dike escaped from his custody in the covers of the dark.

The victim’s father, Dr Ernest Nmezuwuba, who was also in the charge room while Dike was supposed to write his statement said there was no power supply in the area at that time and that he had to rely on candlelight during that time.

The suspect, Dike, reportedly escaped from Okoroeze's custody and his whereabouts has still remained unknown. The state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Ahmed Zaki, ordered the dismissal and arraignment of Okoroeze for criminal conspiracy.

According to Punchng, when Okoroeze was aaraigned and presented to the magistrate’s court in handcuffs, he cried profusely. He said: “What have I done to myself? What did I do? Call my wife for me."
