Changing The Name Nigeria by Ilekeh(op): 11:02pm On Dec 17, 2014
When is that going to be possible?

It's a shame that in 2014, we still have Niger/NGR in our country's name.

If India can change its cities' name, why can't we?

If your name is changed from Ilekeh to Profcorruption, does that make you profcorruption?

What Nigeria needs, and urgently so, is a change in political structure.

changing of name won't help Nigeria, all we need is a change of mentality and God's help.

Imagine naming a child "ediot", won't the child be ediotic in life?

Amidst the racial tension all over the world, it's embarrassing to claim Nigeria, Niger Delta or even Niger (the country).

Sure, we need political reform, but renaming Nigeria and forming our own identity is just as important.

Don't confuse logic with logicality. Even though my moniker reads Profcorruption, it does not necessarily follow that I am corrupt or have tendencies to be corrupt.
